Today, I learned that I have the balls to base jump and skydive, but I still can't ask out the hot girl working at the pub. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I took my girlfriend skydiving for her birthday. I insisted on joining her to make it a memory for us both, despite my fear of heights. I passed out twice mid-freefall and had to be saved by the instructor both times. FML
Today, I finally got up the nerve to ask this really cute girl out I've had a crush on for over eight months. Turns out she isn't a girl. FML
Today, I was going to ask out a girl I work with, only to find out that not only is she in a relationship, she’s also a lesbian. FML
Today, I finally gained the nerve to ask out the girl of my dreams. She responded by saying, "You need to lower your standards." FML
Today, I tried to impress my girlfriend by vaulting over the side of a stairway rail parkour-style. Now I feel like I almost broke my legs, and judging by her hysterical laughter, she considers me more of a fool than a stud. FML
Today, I finally got the courage to ask out a girl I've had a crush on for months now. She told me I was very cute and then walked off. I still don't have an answer. FML
Today, after three weeks of putting it off, I decided to ask out the girl I've had a major crush on since third grade. When I told her, she smiled, but then quickly said, "But aren't you gay?" FML
Today, I asked out the girl I really like. She turned me down, saying that she's a lesbian. That'd be fine, if I were a guy. FML
Today, my friend said he'd give me 20 bucks if I would ask out the ugliest girl in school. I did it. She rejected me. FML
Today, I finally got the courage to approach a girl. I've never done anything like this before. She stared me down, not saying a word, until I felt so little that I just walked away. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The ground might never reject him but his parachute can by it not opining.

Love is just like skydiving, it starts out scary, but you get used to it. Start by asking other girls out for practice, then you'll develop the courage to ask her out. Am I right?!

YDI for using the term "have the balls to do something", and also for thinking those things are even comparable.

Dear OP, C'mon man, rejection is the problem. When sky-diving or base-jumping reject you, generally it results in death; not much in the way of getting your pride hurt, as... when anything goes wrong you're not around to give a fnck. Batman taught us to chew gravel when we talk, and mostly importantly: face our fears. Getting rejected by anything you find beautiful will always be a terrible thing, but you have to know to be certain. Ask her out.

Simple, it's fear of rejection, you can't get rejected while skydiving. No need to beat yourself up about it! Also, don't worry too much if you get the balls to ask and get turned down, I work bar with my GF and she gets asked out all the time (and she's not exactly the hottest lass there)

If ur brave enough to skydive with the risk of death then im sure you can askout this girl with the only risk being rejection. Go for it...maybe she'll say yes:)

Man up already!!! The worst thing that could happen is that she says, "No." So what's the problem???
