The feeling of dread toward being dismissed by someone you have eyes for can be overpowering, yet some degree of dismissal is unavoidable throughout everyday life and shouldn’t keep us from pursuing someone we love. This anxiety toward solitary love is a typical encounter from youth through adulthood however we can figure out how to oversee and defeat these pessimistic feelings:

1. Your fears are only holding you back

You’ve heard Franklin D. Roosevelt’s statement, “Only thing we have to fear, is fear itself.” No other statement sums up dread better. You could see yourself being turned down while playing out the scenario in your mind, which disrupts what you need to convey to your crush. It won’t help your cause assuming you feel anxious or even defensive towards the person.

Instead, visualize the situation resolving the very way you trusted it would. You will go into the situation all the more without hesitation on the off chance that you focus on the result you desire over the possibility of dismissal.

2. Rejection is only the end of the world if you let it be!

All variations of dread, including the apprehension about dismissal, flourish with “apocalypse” thinking. All in all, our emotions convene us that an undesirable result results in complete self image obliteration.
So imagine a scenario where he rejects you.


It won’t result in that frame of mind “of the world,” however assuming we persuade ourselves that the consequences are worse than they are, our trepidation will deaden us and cutoff our chances of truly getting the person we need.


Ask yourself what’s the worst possible response you would get from your crush in the wake of moving toward him/her about chilling together. Then, at that point, ponder how you will permit yourself to manage being upset for somewhat, then the way in which you will manage it and continue on. Just doing this exercise will assist you with feeling less apprehension around the possibility of dismissal.

3. The true meaning of rejection

On the off chance that a person discovers a 200-carat white precious stone in the Earth yet because of obliviousness, believes it is worthless and thus tosses it aside, does this educate us seriously concerning the jewel or the person? Similarly, when one person rejects another it reveals much more about the “rejector” than the “dismissed.” All you are truly seeing is the frequently shortsighted assessment of one person. Consider the accompanying…


If J.K. Rowling stopped in the wake of being dismissed by various publishers for quite a long time, there would be no Harry Potter. On the off chance that Howard Schultz surrendered in the wake of being turned somewhere around 200 banks there would be no Starbucks. Assuming Walt Disney quit too early after his amusement park idea was trashed by 300+ investors there would be no Disney World.


Enable the opinions of others you will end up being their prisoner. So never let someone’s viewpoint change your existence. Never sacrifice what your identity is, or who you aspire to be, just because someone else has an issue with it. Love who you are inside and out and continue to push forward.

4. Enjoy the moment

You can prepare yourself to live very much present without lamenting how others once caused you to feel, or dreading the possibility of future judgment.


Life is short, so if you like someone and need to spend additional time with him/her NOW is your opportunity to take care of business and like anything more focusing on the task within reach is more viable. By being totally at the time and focusing on asking out your crush, you’re ready to make a genuine association which will up your chances by a decent edge.


The past is unimportant, and the future doesn’t as yet exist so savor the second whatever the result. The experience is sure to improve you.

5. Learn to let go!

Individuals who never figure out how to question their emotions, especially while they’re feeling nervous or anxious make life significantly more troublesome than it has to be. Now is the ideal time to give up a bit. Being more sure about existence part of the way means being OK with not knowing what will occur, so you can unwind and permit things to play out normally.

6. Stay true to yourself

In the event that anybody merits spending time with, they will like you for you, not some fake front you set up to impress. Any time worth spent with someone does not merit spending unless it’s credible.


Primary concern: Don’t change so someone will like you. Act naturally and the ideal person will adore the genuine you.

7. Rejection can be beneficial

As soon as someone critiques and criticizes you and as soon as you are rejected, you might find yourself thinking, “Well, that proves once again that I am not worthy”.


Rejection is a necessary medic; it teaches you how to reject relationships and opportunities that aren’t going to work, so you can find new ones that will. It doesn’t mean you aren’t good enough, only that one particular person failed to see what you have to offer.


Will you be hurt for a moment? Of course, you’re human. But when the emotions subside, you’ll be less afraid to try again, knowing that you’ve leaped outside of your safety zone.


Remember that it doesn’t matter what people think of you. The less afraid you are to go after what you want, the more chances you’ll have at actually getting it. It’s worth taking the chance because either way there is something to gain.
