I have decided that I really need to get better at networking if I’m gonna get anywhere in life. Problem is I have social anxiety and zero clue how to talk to people.
Do you think it could help your social anxiety if you were playing a character different from yours?
I’m thinking about honing your networking skills under the guise of being in cosplay and in character at conventions. Once that went well a couple times, you could slowly transition to less and less cosplay character and more your general self? Just spitting ideas while on the toilet at work hah
I’ve reached the conclusion that networking events are society’s practice setting for becoming more sociable, since you sure has hell aren’t ever hearing back about an opening. It’s performative bullshit theatre; treat it as such (relax) and find amusement in those taking it seriously.
