I'm not gonna lie, I have been quite an AFC at this point, but I am working on it. This semester at college I think that I will be completly over it for one reason. I have a public speaking class. How will this help me not be AFC you ask. Because there are three guys(me included) and about 25 girls and of that 25 about 8 are HB's. I feel that this is the best thing to happen to me because if there is one thing to boost confidence it is public speaking and having the class being 99% girls helps out alot also
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
I will never be intimdated by girls again

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Master Don Juan
Most people speak at too rapid of a rate when giving a speech. It is a side effect of nervousness. Talk slowly, project your voice, don't fidget, and don't say "uh" or "um." The Toastmasters speech club keeps a horn or noisemaker and honks it at the speaker when he says either of those words, because it is a very bad habit that many people have. Good luck to you.
