    When I was younger. Then after I accepted I was probably going to be rejected I stopped caring what the answer is. I mean either she wants to go out with me and we're off, or she doesn't want to go out with me and I can move on. There are 3.5 billion women on the planet. In that respect she is not special. No reason to be scared. Still no one likes rejection. So you do your recon. And only ask her out if you truly feels she's worth it. But honestly I don't ask hardly any women out. I let them ask me. Because I've yet to be rejected by a woman who's asked me out yet.😆

    Yes absolutely. Starting in elementary school there were girls in my class and I would try hard but I couldn't force myself to approach them much less talk to them I could literally feel and hear my pulse pounding in the throat when trying to go though with approaching them. Then I'd get all mad and disappointed myself. I would go home thinking about the day and night all day all night.

    When I got to high school 9th grade I saw this girl and I wanted to talk to her bad and I couldn't do it. One morning I decided to down a half a bottle of whiskey to help me get up the courage to talk to her. I got to school and still couldn't do it.

    Yes, but looking back at it, I wish I did. Like, I should've just done it, we could've both had nice memories out of it instead of thinking about what could've happened.

      Nice memories or rejection. At least your conscience is clean 👍.
      Hope you find a sweetheart 🙏

    Yes, there was a girl I knew when I was 16. I knew she liked me and she used to come and visit me. I really was in love with this girl and I was too afraid to make a move. I went away to college and I met a girl that I thought was cute. We hung out a lot and everyone told me that she liked me but I was too afraid to tell her. After a while she went out with some other guy so I had to do something or else she would be gone. I went to see her and finally told her how I really felt about her. It turns out she felt the same way about me.

    Actually, despite my shyness and hesitancy, I for one really was pretty forth coming even though I did not get reciprocating replies 🤣. Other guys used the more, friend zone approaches which failed miserably. So, at least my way wasn't as sneaky 😁

    Yes, I regret not trying to come out of my zone. My insecurities and low self-esteem were really holding me back... still are when I don't feel good about myself.

    Yes! Hell, I’m even afraid to tell a guy I like him. It’s not because of rejection. It’s mostly how horribly he’ll react. I didn’t have a very good experience with men.

    Back in high school, this was true but not since then. What's the worst that can happen - you get rejected? Big deal.
