Fear of Rejection

Fear of rejection

Two  men were strutting along the country side. They were friends but they were complete opposites of each other. One man was a coward yet the other was courageous and confident. But fortunately they all had one thing in common. The two men were all in their mid forties and none had a wife. They were all single but living the bachelor life was not a cup of tea to the duo. As they were walking in their village, they caught a glimpse of two women collecting firewood

"Let's go and propose to those two beauties over there?" Said the confident man

"No what if they reject us ? let's not accommodate rejection at all. I am not going there, I am going home. I don't think they will accept us even. Just go alone!" murmured the cowardice man.

"You Know what my friend, fears are nothing more than a state of mind. rejection is a normal thing and you don't have control over it. and know that cowards die many times before their death dates!" The confident man pontificated  and went over to the women who were busy collecting fire wood. The coward went home instead of following the confident man's advice.

Ten days later, the cowardice man went to the local pub in the evening and found his friend walking holding hands with a gorgeous, voluptuous woman.
