How do I fix fear of rejection?

By accepting that it's a part of life. I typically don't pursue women unless they're really interested in me so there's not much experience there, but despite having a great track record it took me over 500 applications to get my current job. Almost all rejections, and ended up with 2 offers. Just like jobs, there are an infinite number of reasons why a person could reject you. Doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you necessarily, but we should all strive to improve.

face it, understand it... get used to it

but be smarter about it... by understanding, I mean realize that you're not actually being rejected... because people do not really have an obligation to say "yes" to you just because you happened to ask them...

just try to get rid of any sense or entitlement

Try to experience it a few times, accept your emotions, and go on.

If you got a reason, it's only better. You can probably learn something from it.

read books about it, then talk to a counselor or expert about it

Be a better man. Work on yourself. Then it's not you that's missing out, it's them. Being rejected becomes a way of weeding out the people that have poor judgement and you do not want to be with someone who makes poor choices picking men because that means your the low value man

Stop caring about the answer, be your best self no matter what the answer... you are just inviting her into your amazing world, you don't need her... but you want her. That will result in many being interested.

Learn to not give a s*** anymore. If it makes you feel any better I was probably worse than you at your age. They all have vag*na's man. There are almost 4 billion of them on the planet. In that respect they're not special. You're building it up too much in your mind. And ANY one of them are CAPABLE of cheating on you. When you finally come to this realization you'll understand that most of the that reject you actually did you a SOLID.

You have to just tell yourself that when you ask out a girl the worst thing that can happen is they say no. The odds are against you bring successful and that most guys go through this.

You just have to power through it. Get rejected a few times and remember that everyone does the same thing.

i think it’s easier to adjust behavior than fear, personally. what behavior do you want to change?

Rip it apart and figure out where it came from, and why you still ALLOW IT to affect you.
