Why wouldn't you talk to anyone or go to anything? Do you have any local meets? I'm going to my first convention later this month - excited!
Because I don't do well in open ended groups of people. A bit of anxiety mixed with just not knowing how to start conversations with strangers.
I understand that, but I guarantee that a lot of furries are in the same boat! I've found that the only way to improve is to get out there. Assuming that's what you want
I'm sure I'm not the only one. I couldn't tell you what I want.
I mean, if I just want a change of scenery, I can just go for a hike or bikeride like I often do. If I'm going to spend money to go somewhere, I'd like to actually want to go.
I know, its just $100 to exist somewhere is a bit more than I would want to spend.
I made it there, but didn't end up going do to registration issues.
Just walking up to the hotel and through the lobby was interesting. I was more disappointed than I thought I would have been even though I didn't really plan on going.
It was a nice day out, so I had a nice walk. It would have been nicer if there wasn't an "unruly" passenger on the train ahead of mine causing a 10 min delay.
Its interesting how much reading only 1 comment vs the thread changes meaning so much. The disappointment was due to the inability to go, not actually going. Depending on where I end up, I might try to make more of an effort in the future. If I decide to launch my website, I'll probably try to go to a lot to get the word out.
