Ignore People's Comments about Your Religiosity

Question:
Salam Aleykoum everyone, i hope you're doing okay, i won't be too long.
I'm 17yo, I live in a Algeria, which is a Muslim country, and since my childhood, i've had some problems socially talking. My family is religious and i was raised in that way (Al-Hamdulilah), and where i live, most people say that they believe and stuff (only Allah knows the truth), but what they do is completely the opposite (Zina, fitna, lying ectera). And since school (i'm still a student), i was seen as a stranger (by the way, i'm a blond man and in my town, most of them aren't), especially the recent years.
I study in a mixed school (I know it's against the Charia but there isn't other schools), girls and boys, and not to be pretentious, i'm somehow handsome and i got demand from several girls to go out with them, but i always refuse, i also don't do Kazah like the most other men, in other words, i'm so different from them and i know it. Some people also tell me often that i'm still a teenager and i must enjoy my childhood (they mean find girlfriends and stuff like this), but i know that i don't have to commit these acts to have a happy social life, even if i'm seen as a psycho and complicated lonely person. Do I have the correct mindset for a young muslim, and what do you think of all of that. I won't say no for an advice or opinion. Have a nice day.
Answer:
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad 
is His slave and Messenger.
If you grew up in a religiously committed family, then this is one of the greatest blessings that Allah, The Almighty, bestowed upon you, and one's duty regarding the blessings is to express gratitude to Allah, The Exalted, for them; He Says (what means): {And be grateful for the favor of Allah, if it is [indeed] Him that you worship.} [Quran 16:114] Gratitude for a blessing is expressed by doing what is relevant to that blessing, so you should express gratitude to Allah, The Exalted, for this blessing by remaining steadfast in your obedience (to Him), avoiding the ways of misguidance and misguided people, and seeking helpful means to achieve this objective by keenness in acquiring useful knowledge, performing good deeds, and keeping the company of righteous people.
As long as you are treading the path of righteousness, there is no doubt that you are on the right course. So, stay firm on it and completely disregard the satanic whisperings of the devils of mankind and Jinn; they adorn falsehood to lead you astray just as they have gone astray so that you would be ruined like them. You should also ignore what some people may say about you, such as their saying that you supposedly are a psycho and complicated person. You should follow the example of the Prophet and the other Prophets of Allah and righteous people who were harmed but remained patient in the hope of gaining the Pleasure of Allah, and, accordingly, He raised their repute high and elevated their status.
You should know that genuine happiness in this worldly life and the Hereafter lies in adhering to faith and obedience. Allah, The Almighty, Says (what means): {…then whoever follows My guidance will neither go astray [in the world] nor suffer [in the Hereafter].} [Quran 20:123] Ibn ‘Abbaas 
said in his interpretation of the above verse: “Allah guaranteed that whoever recites the Quran and acts upon it will not go astray in this worldly life nor suffer in the Hereafter.”
If you maintain your righteousness and die while holding onto it, you will be among the seven whom Allah will shade in the shade of His Throne on the Day when there will be no other shade; among whom the Prophet mentioned: “…a youth who grew up in the worship of Allah.”
Committing sins begets nothing but misery and suffering, even if people perceive otherwise. As sins accumulate on the heart, it turns black and darkens, as stated in the authentic Sunnah. This is further proven by the verse that reads (what means): {No! Rather, the stain has covered their hearts of that which they were earning.} [Quran 83:14]
Allah Knows best.
