It's fucking hard! I've never been good at being social, and I think I try too hard when I am in social situations (primarily stream chats) because I don't want to just be silent and go unnoticed. I think it's a part of me that still needs to be the center of attention, something from when I was a child that I never grew out of, despite also growing into social anxiety that leads me to avoid human contact like the plague.
I am trying, though, to be at least slightly social. I don't want to be left alone or anything, but I'm bad at initiating conversations, I always worry that I'm interrupting something or that I just come off as annoying, and I don't ever know what to say, especially to someone I admire.
So, uh, yeah... Sorry if I'm kind of annoying and awkward? This isn't easy for me.

D'awwww, you're fine, dude. You never came off as annoying when we hung out, nor in the stream or anything~

OP
But I still FEEL like an annoyance, and I'm constantly worrying that people are just putting up with me and I just ARGH. I can't not overthink everything...
