Like, are you willing to pay that cost?
Is that worth it to you to spend precious time on earth worrying about those things?
Or would you rather invest it in something more fruitful?
Thirdly, recognize the way that your fear of being disliked mirrors the things you dislike about yourself and the things that you unconsciously haven't fully accepted yet.
Psychologists sometimes refer to this as projection.
It's basically a defense mechanism first identified by Freud in psychodynamic theory, where we attribute to others the very traits we feel insecure about within ourselves.
If you're deeply afraid that somebody will find you too much,
too quiet, awkward, unlikable, or if you see all those things in them, it's often because on some level you actually believe that about yourself.
Focusing on that root insecurity will remove the need for the approval you crave because you become comfortable with those things maybe being true.
Maybe they are true about you.
Maybe you are kind of loud or kind of sensitive or maybe not.
But whatever the outcome is,
you're not going to care about it anyways.
That's just part of who you are.
Next, I would also say, change the questions you bring to a social situation to be in your favor.
Basically, instead of constantly asking, do they like me?
Do they think I'm cool?
Do they think I'm attractive?
Do they think I'm interesting?
Be focused on, and I know it's cliche, but do you like them?
