After this quarantine, you have no excuse to not approach women.
Men feel approach anxiety for one primary reason: they are afraid of rejection, not just from the woman but from the “tribe,” whatever that is: the woman’s friends, their own friends, the people at the bar, etc… Movies make men think that if you approach a woman and get rejected, you will be seen as some kind of loser and you should be embarrassed and that everybody will laugh at you. For this reason, a lot of men are more afraid of judgment by others than rejection from the woman.
This fear, obviously, is irrational. Nobody is going to care or think about you if you get rejected. And even people did ridicule you for approaching, so what? Sometimes approaching a stranger is the only way to meet them. Do they expect you to just never form a relationship with somebody because you don’t have any mutual friends with them? Guys that approach may get laughed at, but they also get laid and they meet awesome new people that others never get to meet.
Even though these feelings are irrational and men sometimes even know they are irrational, they still cripple from men approaching because humans have a deep-seated evolutionary need to be accepted by the tribe, and most people cannot tolerate the feeling or the thought, even for a second, that they have been “rejected,” even if the “rejection” is a total illusion. Of course, a woman rejecting you in a bar is not the same as the tribe rejecting you, but to your biology it feels the same. The emotion overwhelms our rational brain so that, even though we know it is an irrational fear, we still cannot approach.
Being quarantined, however, should prove to you something to you. You are stuck in the house and not allowed to interact with most people, and you are fine. It should have proven to you that you can handle rejection, and you don’t need women to survive or be happy. If every woman in the world rejects you, you would be no worse off than you are now.
Being quarantined is the definition of “rejection.” You are literally being separated from the tribe and not allowed to interact with anybody. It is almost like you are in jail. When you are approaching a woman, your subconscious mind cripples you with anxiety for the very reason that it fears that you will be separated from the tribe. But you have been separated from the tribe for a month now and you are fine! Whenever you feel approach anxiety in the future, you can just think “I have already endured much worse than this, and nothing happened to me.”
A lot of people are having difficulty with this quarantine because they rely on interaction with others for their mental health. And yes, a normal healthy person will be “accepted” be some kind of tribe, whether it be their friends, their family, society, etc… But this quarantine has hopefully shown you that some time alone will not kill you, and that if you get rejected and quarantined for a month you will still survive.
And here’s another thing: most women are interested in meeting new guys because, like most people, they are not completely happy with the people they know. They want to meet better people! Most guys don’t understand this because they assume that all beautiful women have a line of amazing guys waiting for them. Well, this quarantine will hopefully show you otherwise. Women, like you, are stuck in the house and cannot meet anybody so they will be desperate to meet new people.
