Do you need good acting skills for roleplay?

I really want to try some CNC roleplay but honestly, im a terrible actor and i think it would break the moment.
like what am i supposed to say?!!?!
I know its such a strange thing to worry about but id hate to ruin the moment with my social awkwardness.

I would say it may be down to the role you are trying to play and if you are unsure of your acting skills try to stick close to your own psyche/experiences/ fantasies etc and adapt from there to espouse suitable actions and reactions. Off piste can even work as a foil or reposte or redirection of how the scene is progressing.
For instance If I was involved in a play about the ups and downs of men with big cocks I actually have a life experience and fantasies around the fact I have a very tiny penis. This would make my character somewhat the odd one out who coul actually broaden the narrative in many ways.

When it comes to CNC you gotta have a conversation of what limits you both have and what safe words you will use (to ease up and/or stop). CNC to be convincing both of you gotta be committed to the part. As the one NCing I usually try to create and give my partner(s) situation where they can “yes and” and go from there to have them lead (like trying to push them off while I adjust to a more vulnerable position for them to exploit)

I don't think you need good acting skills as long as it's your fantasy. You just have to let it out the way you want to portrait it. As the comment above, have some safe boundaries set, it will be a lot easier if you are sure you're in a safe space.
