How did you feel when you got rejected by someone?

[Anonymous]

I was just rejected by girl I really liked. We became friends and her friends told me that she likes me. From start I was not sure if I want to pursue relationship even though she is really pretty. After some time I fell for her. We got closer and things were looking good. I asked her out and she said yes. Before the day we went out came we kissed two times. Then her friends started telling that maybe I should give up on her that they’re confused of her and stuff so I asked her if she really wants to go out and she said yes. Then we finally went out. Then I don’t know what happened or if I did something wrong I texted her if she’d go out again and she said that she’s now busy. We met on the party a week later and I asked her about how she sees things between us. She was like it’s nothing against me that she likes me but she doesn’t have much time (boarding school) and doesn’t want to get into a relationship now which I would say it’s just more polite way to say no. So I got dumped and I honestly feel like shit. I am overthinker so maybe you know what hell I’m going through. I don’t know what I did wrong that girl who liked me suddenly turns me down. I don’t know if I should have written her more often or something. I always treated her right and was nice to her, tease her (I mean not rudely or something) . I feel so down I can’t get what I want. I feel useless, incapable, not good enough. I know you’ll say there’s a plenty of fish in the sea, time heals everything and all this crap but the thoughts me not being the person she wants to see on weekends, her being with someone else, giving him smile she used to give me absolutely kills me. I don’t how to react, how to act when we meet because we will meet there’s no escape before that (mutual friends, we are from village). So how did you guys feel when you got dumped how long did it take you, how you were reacting to meeting the person?

Reading by your story it looks like something happened before the date. You kissed twice, then your friends warned you. They wouldn't warn you against anything if they knew you kissed, right? Everything would look like going in the right direction, instead all of a sudden they come with a vague reason behind giving up with her, why? Suspicious.
So I guess something happened after those kisses and she said that to someone in your friends group (girls talk all the time about any single thing they do with guys). They might have the answer but didn't want to tell you because it was maybe offensive. I would try asking some of them who look like capable of disclosing more details than the others, trying to not look so desperate to them but more like wanting to learn from mistakes.
Maybe she thought you kiss bad, or that you stink, or some strange thing that made her feel you don't do it with passion (but with tension). But it might be even something completely unrelated: she got to talk back with her ex, or with another guy she is chatting online with, etc. (The presence of another person all of a sudden is the most common causes of these 180° turns people seem to do while dating).
Also, she might have accepted the date without telling you "no", and telling you she still wanted to actually have a date, only in order to not have the burden to cancel it and not because she really wanted. Women would do really some acrobatic and time-consuming (at times very ridiculous) workarounds to avoid saying a "no". Chances are it was a no already before the date.
About reacting to being dumped: it's said you take around half the time you spent mental energies into this person, to get really over it. But of course, if someone else comes across earlier, your mind could just shift more quickly to another person, yes.
And beware of not being recycled: the moment she'll understand you moved on, she might return. Some people do that. But that comes with the risk of dumping you again as soon as you get into her again, or of being her second choice anyway.

slightly hurt. I accept the fact he don’t like me, and move on with my life. I’m not gonna waste time waiting for him to like me because i know he won’t. It is what is it.

Like It was just another day. I mean don't get me wrong it's not enjoyable. But nothing women does really surprises me anymore.

I feel like there's another girl over there to ask next.
