I know exactly what you mean about being timid and overwhelmed. It's pretty scary/intimidating being all by yourself in a massive sea of RPers. I won't speak for you personally, but for me there was a period where I was too shy to reach out, and because I didn't reach out I didn't make any friends, and without any friends felt even more shy and outsidery.
Eventually I just took the plunge and started forcing myself to start posting on Welcome threads (like this one!), introducing myself to other people in the Making Connections area, and signing up/joining some of the events posted on the site. And it's worked out great!
So yeah, my advice is to just jump right in and start doing things! And if you ever need someone to do things with you're more than welcome to send a tell or friend request to V'aleera.
