Miller, I remember feeling the same things when I first started posting here. I remember making a post and being terrified that it would be taken wrong. (OK, that still happens.) I've never been easy with people and it was difficult.
I commend you for being strong enough to be able to articulate your concerns.
For what it's worth, I see you as someone in a lot of pain who tends to be pretty hard on yourself. You seem to be nice and to want to help people, and I'd like to get to know you better.
Social life here is probably not that much different from the real world. Some people instantly charm everyone. Others (like me) take a while to find a niche. Not everyone will like you, but a lot of people will. And there are no "right" answers or questions. We're all just doing the best we can. So join in on whatever threads interest you, or start your own.
