As another poster said i think rejection is easier when youve had sucess attractign the opsite sex before and you know if one says no another one will say yes..
When youve had nothing but rejection and never had sucess in attracting the opposite sex rejection stings more because you feel like youre never gonna get a yes..
You are right about the 'hanging-out' part. However, I think a problem arises when woman associate 'hanging-out' with just being friends and many woman unfortunately do this.
Unfortunately, I am not sure why some people feel they must be rude when letting someone down. The "I have a boyfriend" excuse, weather true or not should be sufficient. Thanks for reminding me btw. I can think of one time I was rejected big time at a nightclub and it was totally uncalled for.
Rejection hurts, it stings, it royally sucks. And we've all been there. Some perhaps more often than others, but regardless, it's someone we've all had to contend with.
In the moment, or immediately after the moment, there is nothing worse. But once that moment has passed, it really would do you well to not put your worth and self-esteem in the hands of strangers, especially ones that are a-holes. Again, easier to say than do, but some toughening up is in order, to not let what others think of you matter more than what you know about yourself.
When a person treats you poorly, it reflects badly on them, not you. Again, I KNOW these words don't mean a lot when it's your feelings, but people you don't know and will never see again shouldn't matter that much to you. You have a choice not to allow people to get to you, not to allow strangers to negatively influence your perceptions and self-worth.
You are not a victim unless you choose to be. Heck, my husband had an affair and trashed our marriage and I was able to rebuild my life despite him. I was not willing to make his issues my issues, or let his actions determine my worth and value in this life. No one is worth that.
Yes i agree, i think people do it for an ego trip. It's arrogant and disgusting.
I'm not saying you literally have to tell the person you are better off without them, but that's basically what you are implying by rejecting someone. That's the message you are sending, by definition. But no, you should not actually say those words.
But yea, the best way to not get rejected is to just pay for it.
I don't know about that, that's a bit strong. It's more the person saying you're not their type for whatever reason, usually looks related.
When you have success mixed in and In some people's cases massive success it's easier to get past rejection. But if someone has zero success it's harder. I don't care how confident you are, there's only so many times you can keep getting knocked down and come back up

Agreed.
I'm able to go out and rejected a lot because I've had so much success in the past. I KNOW from the deepest, darkest sense of my being that no matter what I do, a new girl will come around in the near future. I'm sure of it.
HOWEVER, there was a time when I didn't have this knowledge. There was a time when I never rejected because I never approach.
I saw a really good quote once: "Everybody that is where they are began where they were."
If you approach tons of women and do other things in your life to constantly push your comfort zone, rejection will not faze you.

Yeah, but that's because of MY standards or what I like...not what they are about or how they look.
If I reject some overweight fast food worker that can't read past an 8th grade level, that's my hangup, not theirs.
You know what, that's true a person like that could still find someone at their economical educational level.

Good point, some people have a certain threshold for the amount of rejection they can take. Some higher than others.
