How is it a form of assurance?

It's assurance that you don't need to try, that they're not interested. It stops you from wondering.
It's like if someone told you they're married.

It’s all about perspective. Every failure is an opportunity to learn. Every rejection is an opportunity to be accepted in the future.

And since this is the Shroomery, i have to also suggest drug therapy.
Certain drugs have anti-social anxiety properties. Some of these drugs are Kava, MDMA and Cocaine.
Kava is probably your best bet since its the safest. MDMA (XTC) is a good choice too just make sure you test it to make sure there are not any other dangerous drugs within the MDMA. And always start low! Cocaine has positive social and confidence-boasting properties however its addictive, short-lasting and can be unsafe with repeated use. If you do use cocaine, make sure you also test it to make sure its as pure as possible, start with a low dose and make sure it does not have other harmful drugs laced within it. Cocaine could also trigger psychosis in people with certain predisposed mental illnesses so be careful!
Hope this drug advice helps

I doubt that will lower anxiety in any way in a social situation, especially if it's not with a group of people who are also partaking.
If it's a sesh, and there are level headed and experienced friends around, maybe. But definitely not in a club and hardly if you don't know the people.
It could go either way, just saying, better odds if you know everyone there.

Aminophenylbutyric acid, goes by "Phenibut". Common anti-anxiety medication in Russia. 100mg of that hits like a glass of beer or two, socially speaking...minus the rest of the alcohol effects.

My friend and I just had this conversation. She gets involved with special olympics, community and her children. She adopted children out of the foster system. She yearns for a life partner, she is a widow, became one young.

I find that as you get older, it gets harder and harder to maintain friendships with people. Like for me, most people my age all have family. It's not that they don't want to be a good friend, it's that a lot of time, they can't, due to family obligations. And I don't blame them.
OP: personally I would just focus on your career. Make lots of money, this should take your mind off your singlehood.
