I love being praised and told I'm cute and given headpats and cuddles. But at the same time I really don't want to come off as too needy and insecure so I'm afraid to ask someone to pet me. 
But I want it so much, sometimes all I can think about is how much I want to hug someone and feel close, warm, safe and comfortable. I feel like my avatar reflects those sentiments well and I'm happy about it. It feels a bit like a guilty pleasure and escapism, but at the same time I have a well paid job and savings and stuff. So maybe it's fine to have a little escapism like this. I feel like it really makes me happy to be around people in vrchat. 
Thanks to it I want to learn more about 3d graphics, work on dancing and to get better at managing depression. I've been sleeping better since I started hanging around /vrg/ and I'm grateful to people I've met here. 
I hope one day to get well enough to have a drink with everyone too.
