hi !!! i’m super shy and have been trying to make new friends, i’m an artist who hasn’t posted in many many years because i’m a little paranoid. ( anxiety and just, mental stuff ) but you seen awesome and i’ve been meaning to approach you, i’m just not sure how.. because of autism & other things i can be rlly awkward and i get rejected from being friends w ppl a lot.. and i haven’t really tried since i stopped posting. would it ever be ok to like, interact/chat with u ?? if not that’s okay !!

This goes for everyone who feels like you, please say hi :) I’m a lonely thing in the dark… while my social energy fluctuates often, I do try and be as active online as I can manage. I’m autistic too, hahaha… it just manifests differently because of my upbringing. I’m very veeery burnt out, and that takes a toll on my “socialization for the day” meter. Not to mention working around mental illness lol… I promise I will give you a chance to talk with me, but you’ve got to make the first step ;) I see through people relatively easy… so don’t worry about awkwardness or rejection. If you have basic decency and you’re respectful, that won’t be a problem between us at all! 💖
