Sounds like fear of rejection. Despite 99% of the list seemingly getting some value from your emails, you’re more concerned about the 1% that’s rejecting you.

Sounds like fear of rejection. Despite 99% of the list seemingly getting some value from your emails, you’re more concerned about the 1% that’s rejecting you.
My suggestion is to not take the rejection personally. There are so many reasons someone might unsubscribe, and none of them have to do with you personally... maybe they are too busy and any extra emails in the inbox adds to their stress, or maybe they are no longer interested in this topic, or maybe they were confused and thought the emails would be about something else, and so on... Why be offended or worried when someone unsubscribes for those reasons? Good, unsubscribe, I don’t want to bother you if you lost interest in this topic!
Think about the other 99% of people who WANT to hear from you, but you’re making them wait for the sake of a few people who shouldn’t be on your list anyway.
