TIL social anxiety blocks me from commissioning artists

Furry Reddit - Thu 21 May 2015 - 15:56

NOTE! I am not trying to get commissions for free at all, I just want to rant. Please do not offer things like that, I would feel bad about posting this if you do. This is just me ranting and wondering if other furs experience the same

So I've been waiting to commission a traditional badge from a local fur for a while now. Today they opened Pay what you want commissions, and I asked them if I could commission a badge from them. They said, as long as you know what you want, shoot me a note on FA.

There's the problem. Somehow my social anxiety completely blocked me from sending the note. Even after countless of revisions. Now I feel really bad for not going through with it.

Any other furs who experience this problem? It seems to me that if I haven't talked to the person a lot the anxiety actually blocks me.

Artists, how do you respond when someone says they want to commission you but then actually don't go through with it?

I'm so glad I commissioned my fursuit from an old friend. :o
