If it helps, I've been in the owner's situation. This is utter conjecture/projecting on my part, but maybe they're shy or nervous around new people. I always reblog those "message me!" things, and then when I actually get messages I freeze up and don't know what to say. And then after a certain point I worry that it's too late to reply without looking like a jerk.

Yeah, even people who seem really open and friendly in their online posts can be really shy and don't handle socializing with strangers as well as you might expect. They may have some friends that they already know and interact with a lot and that gives the impression that these people are really outgoing when they are not. I also used to notice on LJ that some BNFs would get followers who continued to comment on the BNF's posts without seeming to ever get any acknowledgement from the BNF, so they aren't really friends with the BNF, just people talking amongst tgemselves.

Not the OP, but if you aware you're this shy and have trouble answering ask from strangers, please please, don't reblog those "feel free to message me!" posts.

I tend to take these seriously, and I'm really shy too, so I always struggle to send a message to someone I want to know, and then I feel really hurt when I and never get and answer.

It's not that they're strangers, specifically. It's not even all the time. Sometimes I can rattle off a dozen cheery replies right away, and sometimes I end up being too anxious to answer anything, even if it's from a friend. I don't know which one it'll be until I actually receive the messages.

Actually, this reminds me, I have some messages that need replies.
