I just realise that I'm no longer afraid of rejection, but that I am afraid of embarrassment. This doesn't just apply to approaching women but to men also.
You would never believe it if you met me, but since starting to listen to AM6 S7, I sometimes say or do things that make me feel socially awkward or embarrassed. For example, I might make a comment without appropriate context, making people feel confused or awkward, which they then project on to me. Or I might express myself in a way that makes people feel like I'm being a sycophant and therefore uncomfortable.
I realised that this is why I'm avoiding approaching attractive women. I'm afraid of making a fool of myself by being socially awkward and becoming embarrassed. In certain contexts, for example approaching attractive women, I don't know how to approach the situation as a relaxed person with equal or superior social value.
How do I overcome this? Does AM6 address this directly? Or do I need to use a program like WM to deal with this issue directly?
Firstly glad you are back!
Second, AM6 helped me finally feel like I was of equal value to super attractive women. SM3 helped me with having less fear, less shame, less guilt and far less over critical of myself when dealing with girls. Made my mind colder, less emotional, more rational, perception clearer and firmer in what I thought, felt and believed.
WM can also help since it is designed with social acuity, voytek can expound as he has used it.
