I’m none of that. I do avoid eye contact and don’t answer calls, but that’s it. I have no issue with messaging people first, especially if it’s someone I feel safe with.
But I don’t like socializing with people and it takes a lot for me to feel safe with someone. I won’t open up until I feel safe. So you’d be getting a quiet and shy person for a while.
Quiet and shy is amazing and I love it when I'm the "social anxiety fears this man" vibe. Usually the more the other person opens up the calmer I get. But I love to just chat random people on the street and hear them out. Talk to the barista, pop a joke wish her a lovely rest of the day and move on. I cold call people cuz I need to have an answer now, not in a week or a month... Now... I can be social if the vibe is good. But on the other hand I can be with a group of people, forcing conversations, keeping it alive and that's just not for me. So my anxiety is just like "up n go".
