Hi guys,

So when I open with a girl (especially when out at a bar or club) I have no problem maintaining eye contact but my issue is let's say I'm on the train, walking in the city (insert any public setting ) etc. I will often make eye contact with a girl I find attractive then look away because I'm scared of getting rejected.

Basically my thought process is that if I make eye contact with a girl and she looks away and doesn't look back I assume she's not attracted to me and I lose my self-esteem.

This only happens mostly with daygame, but even though I'm good with starting convos and opening in a club I still struggle with maintaining eye contact (because of the rejection aspect)

It sucks because I've been called both ugly and good looking by people but my lack of success with women has put me in a rut. How do I overcome this?
