afraid of being rejected?

in highschool, i hated the thought of the guy i liked turning me down, i remember at a school dance i got my friend to ask a guy i liked to dance with me....and well he said no, which crushed me, i hated the feelin, since then i had a couple crushes on guys, but never would i of asked them out, so i kept my feelings inside, but i'm glad i did cuz now i had a wonderful boyfriend who loves me, and i couldn't ask for more!

Well, although this technique might sound 'nerdy' try to get to know her over a chatting program. Make it seem like it wasn't planned, for example send a message to her saying "Who is this?" which would eventually lead to a conversation. Once you get to know her a bit call her to ask what homework was for a certain class, if you share any classes with her. Once again, you can't make it too obvious you like her right away. Eventually you might develop a friendship with her and she could care less about what 'clique' you're in. Once again, my true nerdiness will be revealed but I actually did this once and started a relationship. She hung out with those stereotypical jocks and I was too shy to start a conversation. The internet saved me?

Hi Shawn! What I think is that if you can't tell if she likes you then there's a good chance that she doesn't and will say no. That doesn't mean that she couldn't or wouldn't like you it just might mean that she hasn't really thought about you yet. You have How well do you know her? When and how often during the day do you see her?

If you are that scared of being rejected right now may not be the best time to ask her out . Give it some time and see how she feels , maybe try talking to her and finding out what her intersts are , you may find she has a lot in common with you or that you share no intersts with each other . First you need to build up your self confidence and try not to worry about what other's think of you , if they can't like you for who you are and accept you for you they should have no bearing on your life . I realize it is harder when you are in school but once you get out of school you will find it is no longer as much like that . People should like you for you no matter what .

Rejection is a part of life. I never really as scared of being rejected, may it be by someone I like or anything else. What matters is how you accept it after you get rejected. Rejection is a good way to reflect on your self and the areas that you need to improve so that you won't get rejected the next time. =)

Rejection is one of my greatest fears...:( But I usually just realize that I'm being stupid, and that nothing will ever happen if I'm too afraid to act.
