acceptatiophilophobia

Being so used to rejection that your mind puts you in a constant state of fear, making the thought of being rejected more comforting, safer and overall better than the thought of being (finally) accepted.

(Obviously, fictional-definition. This phobia does not exist in the real world, although the overall concept does.)
