Overcome your Fear of Rejection

If you think you’re the only man afraid of approaching women, think again.

Fear of rejection stems from many sources. Men who’ve been turned down one too many times suffer from low self esteem. They feel unworthy of beautiful women, and as a result, they don’t even bother trying anymore. However you slice it, fear of rejection is almost an epidemic, and it needs to stop.

But is it really possible to overcome such a fear? The truth of the matter is no, but you can learn to manage it. Men from all walks of life suffer from the same handicap when it comes to approaching women; some just handle it better than others.
