Do you ever get anxious when trying to role-play?

[hugrf2]

I don't know. I mean, I know I'm sensitive but I guess I just don't really care much if I'm rejected? I don't join groups anymore. I usually just rp with friends, whom are much more accepting, or ask to rp with another character alike mine such as humanoids. Once someone found the rp we were in boring (Likely because it had nothing to do with romance or you know what. BL //sigh//) and deleted me soon after.

They never worded it, but now that I look back on that I even feel a little glad because I don't want to be roleplaying with someone like that... Yes. I have to tell stories now. <3

I am a little nervous sometimes, like if I'm rusty (And that I am. Especially right now.) and kinda like their character... I don't always have a way to make the rp exciting, y'know? Although people are a lot more accepting than I might believe, and me or my rp partner(s) might find a way to making it exciting easier than I think.

Otherwise if they are unaccepting all of a sudden then hey, whatever. ewe' I can see how you'd be hurt by rejection, though, I even have my own story of that but in the end met my own rp group through that. Even I'd be pretty hurt if it were to happen to me today, too, so now I just stick to my group mainly.

Sorry for the ramble. To sum it up, I just stick to my own group now. When I do go outside of that I try not to worry, though, since I'm less anxious than I was a year ago. ^^'

Heck yes. o__o; I have anxiety disorder so.

The only reason I would be anxious when joining a role-play was due to me wishing to form my character I would be playing in that role-play. To see what she/he would turn into. Other than that I never really had felt anxious for any other reason when it came to joining role-plays.

I had this when I first started role playing in FH 4 years ago. I was so nervous to join a group, because truth was, I had never role played in my life and was a complete and utter noob. But rping was and has been a great way for me to meet new people and have some fun in game on the days I have off. You do meet a lot of awesome people with rping, so I suggest trying it out. It may seem scary at first, but don't be afraid to ask people questions and strike up conversation.

Thank you everyone for sharing your experiences! Perhaps it'd be a dandy Idea to make a MMT on how to help with Anxiety. However before this topic a-strays I'd just like to say thank you.

Oh, all the time. xD
I always seem to think that my RPing skills aren't as good as everyone else's because they're wolfspeak people and my style of writing isn't that complicated...It's just quite plain/normal, I guess.
I've been battling writers block as well. :c But after the first few posts I usually feel more confident.~

i get anxiety over every single thing tbh. especially with social interaction. after years of being treated badly, plus the fact that i'm naturally socially awkward, i tend to be uneasy in social situations.

the reason i don't roleplay anymore is because of bad experiences. :p i don't like roleplaying with random people that don't click with me anymore, and it happens a lot in the game. i'm really afraid of judgement. ;u;
