First of all, you’re not in love with someone you’ve never spoken to. You’re [i]attracted[/i] to them without knowing them. Big difference.

If you want to get to know them and see if they’re someone you may or may not eventually fall in love with, you have to be willing to risk rejection. I know that you seem scared of being rejected, but think about what rejection really is. It’s someone telling you that you’re not the one for them. Now think about what would happen if NO ONE [b]EVER[/b] rejected you! You’d never be able to have one meaningful relationship because you’d have to date EVERYONE who didn’t reject you. You’d waste all your time sorting through everyone, and you’d never really find true love. So rejection is actually a gift. It guides you away from women who aren’t right for you and towards women who are interested in you and are therefore possibilities!

Also, remember that not everyone is going to be someone you’re going to want to date, so in your life, you’re going to have to reject women you don’t like enough to date and if you don’t, you’re going to waste their time and that hurts way more than a quick rejection.

So, I think that’s probably a lot for you to process and think about now! 😉
