When I was young, I was SO uncomfortable with dating. I got nervous thinking about calling a girl and I would stare at the phone for hours before I actually called her. If I got rejected, it was devastating and it might take me weeks to recover from a rejection. As I got older and accumulated some experience, I got excited about meeting a new girl, but I didn't get nervous. If I got rejected, I just started thinking about the next girl. I developed confidence in myself and that meant that I got more dates and less rejections. At last, I was comfortable with dating but it didn't happen until I was 24 or 25 years old. How old were you when you overcame your insecurities and developed confidence in yourself?
