Hypergamy can help you with approach anxiety. One reason we are anxious about approaching is fear of rejection and humiliation. But women are emotional creatures surging on hormones. You can be the biggest alpha in your town but the minutes a movie star walks in the room, all women will lose interest in you immediately. For them, it is all about the NOW. They don't "keep score" the way that men do. If your SMV value raises, they will immediately forgive and forget past failures and humiliations. They want the man the other women want. Use this to your advantage. The same woman that mocks you and rejects you today will be kissing your feet tomorrow if your SMV value rises. The hamster rationalizes all away. So don't worry about rejections from women. They don't brood; they don't remember; they don't hold it against you. They don't keep score. The game starts fresh every day. The minute your SMV value raises, you get a free pass for all past failures. So don't be afraid to approach. Failure today will not impact tomorrow's success.
