I have recently been trying to understand my psychology better and I have come to the conclusion that I have limiting beliefs in my abilities when talking to girls. I tense up and appear shy because I'm afraid that if I begin talking to them that I'll get rejected in one form or another.

The thing is that I would actually consider myself to be an assertive, affable guy with anyone other than girls around my age.

Has anyone else encountered these 'limiting belief' thoughts with girls and can anything be done to tackle it?
