I said “likely”, as I realize that’s not always the case, but in my experience social anxiety is more likely to manifest in “I totally understand if not” than starting out with an apology in this context. That’s just my experience, but starting with an apology is often “nice guy” behavior, which makes sense because a lot of the “alpha” accounts are actually appealing to “nice guys” and not just guys who are nice that happen to have social anxiety.
