Social anxiety is a meme. Every person I've met with "anxiety" has had no problem doing things they want to do. They'll find a way. It's the things they don't want to do that they have issues with working up the motivation to do them.
The fact of the matter is, if a collab isn't happening despite the parties both saying "they want to do it", then that means one or both doesn't actually want to do it.
