I had been in a relationship for over 3 years and a few months back when I was still in this relationship, I met someone while at work that I've yet to get off my mind 3 months later. This guy had come in that was tall and very cute, and seemed very familiar. I liked something about him right off. We never talked except for the polite hellos, and how are you's, and then one night he came through my line and I decided to be cute and say, "wow you're here again, weren't you here last night?" And he said, "yeah I actually didn't need anything but I wanted to ask you for your number." I was so flustered and happy that he took the initiative to ask, that the first thing I said was, "REALLY??" in the highest voice I have ever made in my life accompanied by the biggest smile. I was still in a relationship and so it took everything in me to tell him that I really wanted to give it to him, but I wasn't in the position to really do that. He was so incredibly nice about it and it's stuck with me everyday since. It was the most perfect meeting with a complete stranger that I have ever had in my life. He's never come back in again since that night but I've always secretly hoped he would. Me and the boyfriend that had prevented me from giving my number out broke up after three years a few weeks back and I'll never quite get over the irony that I turned down someone that I was so attracted to for no reason at all, to stay with someone that ended up not sticking around after all. Funny world we live in, but this reminder always brings a smile to my face. want to share my missed opportunity just to get it off my chest to someone, even if it is a bunch of strangers.

I read in a book before (I think it was "The Aladdin Factor") about the meaning of Fear : F - Fantasized E - Experiences A - Appearing R - Real We don't lose anything by trying. We should never allow ourselves to have the mindset that our past experiences have a bearing on the present. For me, it's a little 'delete button' on the bad memories - it's past! I agree!

It is like one is socialised to excpect bad things to happend. But you are right: the saddest thing is the missed opportunity.

Marie, I agree, although I think that the reasons for fear are more complex (yes, bad experiences especially from early childhood are the most frequent causes for this). Rock,

How can one move beyond that attitude with tools other than a mantra? In my experience, people who take a fear-based approach to life do so because of traumatizing past experiences.

As you said, you can take by default that everyone had such experiences of that sort, and I am no exception. Haven't gone through your other posts. Would definitely read them soon.
