fear of rejection

fear of rejection

fear of rejection is being afraid that someone or some people may not like you, may not like your thoughts, your ideas or anything that is related to you. fear of rejection may turn the person into a crowed pleaser who sacrifices his own needs and wants in order to receive acceptance of others.

the fear of rejection i mean in here is not the normal fear that someone may experience when having a job intreview or somthing like that, because in that case the person may be afraid not to get the job and so not to have enough money to live.

what causes fear of rejection?

  • fear of rejection may be fear of loneliness : sometimes the underlying cause for fear of rejection is the fear of being abandoned and ending up alone at the end, although logically this is less likely to happen your subconscious mind does not depend much on logic compared to depending on old beliefs and ideas it holds.
  • fear of rejection may be fear that history repeats itself : as a child if you have suffered from rejection by your peers then you may develop fear of rejection as a grown up,in that case your subconscious mind fears that the same situation happens again and so you it triggers your fears whenever being in a situation where you can get rejected
  • fear of rejection may be caused by lack of self confidence : if you suffer of lack of self confidence you may fear being rejected because in that case you are dependant on other people to tell you whom you are, that is if people liked you today then you consider yourself a good person and if someone didn't like you then you consider yourself defective.people who lack self confidence don't have their own solid ideas about themselves and so other people's opinion about them is considered very important to them.
