Snowflake Challenge Day 12: Challenge Accepted
Day 12: Create your own challenge.
Here's my thought, and it's fairly simple on the surface, although harder for some than others, and it might take a little research to complete. But since my hope for 2019 is to see a more active Dreamwidth community, I think it's a worthwhile one:
Comment on a friending meme. Then read through the meme and find at least one person to add to your circle.
Where does the research come in? Finding the friending meme! There's usually at least one or two running, and it's been more of a thing lately with the recent migration from Tumblr, but I admit that it might be a challenge. Try searching interests, or browsing your network page, or checking out communities like
fandom_on_dw and
fandomcalendar. Or if you can't find one, create your own and promote it in the communities above! (And on that note, if anyone knows of and/or decides to start a Critical Role or Dragon Age friending meme, hit me up.) I've met some great people through friending memes, and I highly recommend participating whenever you can.

Fans run the gamut from so extroverted they have no idea what boundaries are to so introverted they can barely receive an email without a panic attack. Sometimes I think I have a lot in common with someone, but for some reason I'm getting that "I'm very private, leave me alone" vibe from them so I don't interact... and it's always possible that person was just really shy and was dying to make friends and I missed the chance.
Re: friends
O-oof... I have to admit, I can relate to that;; I can send things pretty fine but somehow whenever I get a reply part of my brain is Convinced I've fucked up bad this time and someone has come to finally call me out, haha...
But mm even though it's stressful it's so much more rewarding to know that people are seeing (even enjoying!) what I'm doing, so even though I usually either take ages to reply back or never do at all, that doesn't mean the reply was unwanted! I always end up explaining this over and over to new people but putting it in a sticky would definitely make it clearer... n.n;;

Re: friends
It's the worst when it comes out of nowhere, but as a result my brain is constantly trying to make sure any bad comments aren't unexpected by... convincing me the comment is going to be bad every time I get one?? which uh definitely makes the worst cases less bad but it also makes every other case WAY MORE bad lol great job there, brain. :/
Re: friends
Solidarity on that.
