I'm very glad that your con was a good one this year. Personally, I thought your JoelnTom cosplay was amaaazing.
My weekend at VVC is basically a series of times set aside for one on one quiet time with the people I have waited all year to see, because I'm deeply introverted. Without that, I don't think I could come to VVC, or function there. It gives me too much anxiety, even though I've been there every year since the very beginning. Partly because I have tried the last few years to make new connections with people I would like to get to know, like you, and end up feeling like I have definitively failed, and that the connection isn't welcome at all by others. Which makes me sad, and sometimes reinforces my feeling that it's easier not to try.
