Robotic Me

For the past few years I've been wishing I could build a female android to do stuff for me in public.
I have really bad anxiety and being out in public is a nightmare.
I can't talk very good physically.
Anything I post online is how I really think and feel, but it's way easier to type it than to speak it.
I tend to stutter, can't control my volume, sound angry when I'm not, get words mixed up, etc.
So I'd love to build a really cute robotic me.
Of course she'd not look like me because I hate myself, but I would type responses and she'd speak them.
It would be so amazing and easy.
I know how I want her to look too.
A little curvy, short brown hair, cat ears, cat tail, glasses and dressed as a maid.
Very anime because that's my thing, but she's so cute in my head.
I need SCIENCE and TECHNOLOGY >BU
Or a text to speech phone thingy...that'd be just as good..../sarcasm
If you could create something to take your place, physically, what would you create?

I think I would want my robot to be an elf. Tall, slim, long pointy ears, and long hair.

Eeh... I feel if I had a robot to do all my social tasks, I'd end up completely regressing and never leaving the house lol. I'd rather have a robobuddy who'd back me up and help me if I clam up. I wouldn't really want them to look much like me though because I hate it when people mistake me and someone else as us being siblings haha.

Sure, I'd have a robotic version of myself I can spar with. While I'm at it I would have a whole robotic team to play D&D and card games with.

I would create a robot that looks just like me so that my cats wold have someone to stay with them during the day so that by night they are not completely pissed at me.
No wait... Scratch that. The robot can go to work in my place and I can stay home with the cats and not leave the bed until summer settles in once and for all

Does it have to be robotic?
If I can create something to take my place it'd be a homunculus made of interestingly gnarled and knotted wood, and I'd send it off exploring (and, honestly? Probably eavesdropping) and to do small errands like dropping off the mail and picking up the mail and doing the weeding near the street so I wouldn't have to interact with passersby.
It'd be nice to send it to the town meetings to eavesdrop, though. So I could find out what's happening without having to talk to everybody.

At risk of sounding like a self-obsessed and pompous prat, I'd want my android to look exactly like me, and talk exactly like me. Only her retainment of knowledge would be WAY better than mine.
So I'd want her to put out all the facts in front of me, and let me make a decision based on what I see.
My memory sucks.

That sounds really cute.
I'd probably make mine look like a cute demon lady or something. That would be super cool.

Now I want to see what you mean by a cute demon lady!
Would anyone here choose something like they've created an avatar of?

I was thinking something like that. Probably a little different, but along those lines.
Oh yeah, I've made a lot of really cool looking avatars. I'd love to have a robot that looked like that.
