1. Mostly just being afraid to approach. You are all terrifying. OH GOD DON'T TOUCH ME..lol, but yeah. The typical anxiety that some peeps have about approaching.
2. I usually like to plan out RPs before attempting because I don't do well with Random Walk ups. Most of the time I don't know where to go with it and it fizzles out into nothing.
3. Kind of feel like my characters are a bit incomplete. Like there is something more I could add to them making them more interesting
I pretty much don't bother trying because of this which kind of sucks cause I see people talk about cool events that happen with their characters.
I treat walkup RP like talking to the person next to you on the bus. It doesn't really matter if it goes anywhere special, you're just passing the time and learning about someone. Eventually you'll find a deeper thread in there with someone. Most of your encounters will probably lead to nothing and that's ok.
As for #3, Â the biggest thing for struggling RPers is to think of a reason your character might approach a stranger. It doesn't have to be just one thing, but pick one and just walk up to someone that seems interesting. For example, my current Main is a Thaumaturge that has a monthly quota of graves and wills to sign people up for. She constantly has to approach people and sell them things.
Even something as simple as "I'm looking for directions" or "I lost something" work.
