So from the title, you will probably think that I'm a massive introvert and shut in with no social skills and I will have to agree to you that my social skills are not the best however in real life I can talk to people fine however online I'm terrified to even send a message to someone. In person, I can talk fine no problems at all and can even start friendly banter and what not quite quickly and easily. The thing is online I have no idea who I'm talking too and even writing this has taken some effort. Another fear I have is that when I see a girl who has similar anime to me and lives nearby they either had tonnes of messages from other guys saying hi and I don't want to bother them more or they have not been online for months. Also, should I bother searching in countries other than my own?
