Have you ever wanted to talk about your interests, but you’re afraid of annoying everyone? (kbin.social)

Sometimes I feel anxious talking to people and telling them about my interests in life. Thinking deep down inside my head that most people will be annoyed by what I had to say and just shun me. Especially when it's a jump from one topic to another that has nothing to do with the previous. I was always told to give to a conversation before I take, however, that's social anxiety always kicks in. Does anybody else have similar experiences?

Just wanted to add that here online, you can expound at length on any topic you are passionate about. If someone is not interested, they'll move on. If they are interested, they'll engage with the topic, if they are a troll they'll say something rude. So, ignore the trolls, chat happily away with any who engage, and you won't even miss those who don't care. It's all good.
