And if you read this thread you would see that I apologized to her.

Don't change yourself for any woman, don't try to be what you think they want, don't act like someone you're not, stop acting so desperate.

Most women are not special... and if they are, they're probably going to nice about rejecting you anyways.

So what exactly is a "nice" rejection? What does that look like to guys who are afraid of it?

Yes, it can. Anxiety is not something that can be cured, it can only be managed/put under control.

I don't have the time to read through 20 pages but this thread is interesting. The only thing that I have to add is why the hell is there so many rules with getting a woman? I mean COME ON! Its border line dumb the things guys go through just to get a number from a woman. Maybe thats why the OP has anxiety about this stuff. Im not saying that a woman should just hand her number out to just any creep but I have ran into cases were a woman would be attracted to a guy that she met somewhere and declined him because he didn't pronounce a word correctly. No joke.

I've actually had a girlfriend for almost a month now. But I did have social and approach anxiety when I was younger.

I think I suffer from the same thing the OP is going through. If I see an attractive woman, I start sweating and am afraid. Mind you, I've approached and done poorly, but I'm just not feeling it these days. Not really attractive either.

Oh, yea, this is definitely not a good plan.

Approach them by finding something to talk about. Ask them about their T shirt, their bumper sticker, ask if they are from around here and do they know of a good restaurant. Has she been here before?

NEVER EVER say "I'd like to get to know you". That's going to sound creepy from a guy who is nervous and sweating.

Make small talk like that with 100 women, THEN start thinking about taking it to the next level. Practice, practice practice.

Having a wingman helps.

And, seriously, talk to your doctor about Paxil. You have a legit case of social anxiety disorder and it WILL Not get better without help.
