Try finding a good hobby. Seriously, once you find something you ARE good at, it's all easier. Me, I grow plants.

Try new things. When you find what is for you, you'll know it because that activity will be fun for you more than any other activity.

That statement was full of fail ;)

See a therapist or talk about it with your friends, parents, or teachers. Nobody on NG or in real life can actually solve your problems... but they can point you in the right direction.

Think of what you like to do and then see if your okay in it

Find something you enjoy doing, and are good at doing, and do it more often!

i dont have a girlfriend -.-.

You really don't need one. Not yet.

Alright, so the only real concern is school. Sport isn't that important, and you know it.
With your current reputation, getting better will be hard. First, spend some time revising. That will set you on the right track =)

Dude, You have to keep trying, I used to suck everything i did even adding but i eventually got better after some considerable practice. just don't give up.

;;;;
Try to go to school & for one day, don't criticize, don't condemn & don't complain about anything or anyone.
IT's going to be hard, really,really hard & if you slip, just let it go & keep trying.
It may not help.
But it certainly won't hurt.

Steps to overcome these problems:
-Consult a doctor about the possibility of a mental condition; this may be responsible for any learning or behavior problems. There is no shame in having one, and if you have one that's undiagnosed it will only cause more problems in the future. Knowing is half the battle; if you have a mental disorder, there are systems in place to help you. Take it from someone who knows.
-School: Pay attention in class, make homework your first priority, and above all try to enjoy learning the material. School's a lot easier if you like it.
-Sports: Maybe athletics isn't your thing. Research martial arts and find one that suits your style; for example, karate for grounded grappling and hard strikes, krav maga for rapid-fire moves, tai chi for physical and spiritual health, etc. (In your case I'd actually recommend tai chi, since it helps to clear your mind.) Or if you want to be able to do moves out of the Matrix, learn parkour; no combat involved, and you can impress people with your mad skills.
-Girlfriend: Resolve the behavior problems first. Girls in general will like a kind, well-mannered guy who takes time out of their day to listen to them. You'll be expected to take initiative, so find opportunities to strike up a conversation. Don't use pickup lines, just ask them out; the worst that can happen is she'll say no. If all else fails, you can still be a happy single.

One final note: the fact you're reaching out for help says a lot. There are plenty of people in your position who don't give a damn; kudos to you for making the effort to change your life.

Try something you think you like. After I tried a lot of stuff, I got angry and killed someone. I then found my hobby.

It's called self determination, and self discipline, the only reason you are "failing" is because you're too damn lazy to make yourself do the things you don't want to do. Only you can fix this problem.

Oh and its frustrating for your parents to watch you wither away on the internet or video games instead of trying to be successful at life.

I can help you with two of those things:

School behavior:

When you start acting up, just remember that every sensible person in the class is thinking that you are a complete dick who thinks this is cool. Do you really want that as your image? Think of that next time.

Being bad at school itself:

Stop acting up in class with the above thought, and searchbar the word "study". Near the top you should see a thread by me asking how NG studies for a big test. If you apply the strategies people put in there (they're helping me, anyway) on a more regular basis than I intend to (ie; when there isn't a big test coming up) then your grades should improve.

Nice to see you're trying buddy.
