I remember one day I was just sitting in class minding my own business.
And some guys were talking about me right in front of me, and the first guy was like, "What about her..." Other guys like, "Who?" And then the first guy pointed at me, and the other guy was all like, "Oh hell no!"
Feels bad, man.
I remember in middle school guys used to approach me in lunch and make up this "Oh so and so likes you, you should go talk to him..." Then that guy would grab me by the arm and try to drag to me to his guyfriend...
I knew this was a trap, so I usually back out.
I've never been actually rejected, but guys made attempts of "playing" me, but due to the fact that I've witnessed plenty of girls get played, I'm good at spotting it out.

Ohh, stuff like that happened all the time to me. We had one bar that I really liked downtown, and it had the open window/irish pub type look so it was great on a summer afternoon. Unfortunately, College guys really liked to sit at the window and hold up number signs to the girls walking by. I got a -2 once, and I don't think I ever got above a 3. Of course, there were plenty cute giggly college girls getting 10s so people rarely complained and when you did you were just called names for being 'jealous'.
Oh, oh! I forgot, I was at my regular pub with a couple friends and my friend pointed out a man at a table with another man and older woman who kept staring and pointing at me. He came over and struck up some conversation about how his friend and mom(!) were asking him who on the patio was he most attracted to. Apparently he felt I looked like Natalie Portman (I don't).
In the course of the conversation he revealed he was a hairdresser and former ballet dancer with a suspicious lisp. He asked for my number to take me dancing some time and when I stood up to give it to him, his demeanor shifted with a "Whoa. You're tall. And you're not wearing heels."

Shockingly, he never called.
Haha, I've had men get visibly disappointed when I stood up

The tall hate was just the cherry on a bizarre sundae. He was pretty clearly gay and I gave my number because I was bewildered and polite. But he got to tell his mom he wouldn't be asking me out because of my height, not because of my vagina.
I was 17; he was 36. We met at my part-time job. He seduced me and convinced me to go to his apartment with him.
I was very inexperienced but willing to fool around because it was thrilling to be with a sophisticated older man. Afterward, he told me that I needed to lose 10 pounds and if I called him after I lost the weight "maybe" we could go out on a date sometime. Needless to say I was crushed.

I don't know about that...he was probably aware he was committing a felony.
Well, the first rejection of my life was being given away to adoption --- parental rejection as an infant. This affected my whole life. Infant know their mother's voice, heartbeat, and know their native language. Fortunately, I was adopted domestically so my adopting parents spoke my native language that I herad in utero, but an infant knows mother's voice and father's too. I missed that. These are known facts withinn the adoption reform movement - professsionals in human development and prenancy and fetal development verify this. This major rejection lead to dificulty in trusting people and loss of self respect and self worth.
But the worst rejection in adulthood that I experienced was being told by a man I loved for a year told me he couldn't understand my profession, that he wished I was a scientist like he was. I was so hurt. I enjoyed conversing with him on and learning about his profession. I sadly realized that he was afraid of my profession and he didn't think what I do is valuable (I work with families). Nice to find this out after a year together.

What a pathetic loser. The correct response would have been to tell him to date women his own age instead of being a creep and molesting girls.
