What I think is one of many reasons why people are afraid of rejection is because they are not faced with it every day and as such are not used to it and it leads them to feel very uncomfortable when faced with it.

      To hear the word “No” or be ignored can be very uncomfortable the first time because we take it personally since we went out of our way to go for it. But here’s the thing, just like with playing a sport or learning a language, the more you face it, the more you are confronted by it, the less of an attachment you’ll have with the negative results.

       Also, you start to realize that if you did not get the results you wanted, there’s always another chance to redo it since life always lets you redo things as many times as you want until you get it right.

So face that rejection little by little until you absolutely do not care because you are used to it and because you’ve gotten whatever you wanted, right.
