I know the feeling. In this period most of my LS friends are inactive (college, work, stuff), and I've been feeling lonely. I spent the past two days in taverns trying to get some interactions with strangers (I was RPing on alts, so entirely new characters), and in two days, maybe a total 8 hours of attempts, I only managed a total of two interactions, both lasting less than five minutes because the others were busy RPing with their FC mates or friends. It really is difficult starting out alone...! You totally have my support.
To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
