Have you ever rejected a person from the opposite sex who took interest in you? How did it make you feel?

I have. It made me feel sad but not bad

It didn’t make me feel like a bad person. I don’t think it’s morally wrong for a person to reject another they aren’t attracted to.

It honestly did make me feel sad though. I know it probably took courage for the men to ask me out and I probably did hurt their feelings when i rejected them. I don’t want to hurt their feelings but it would just be a mistake and a waste of time for any person to enter a relationship with another person they aren’t interested in.

Yeah. You're simply not going to be attracted to every person who approaches. I felt ok because I respectfully declined without being crass or rude or crushing the guy's ego...

You can't bash yourself for not wanting the attention. You can't hide yourself and avoid the attention. It's just there... But you also don't have to be a wanton little thing and accept every guy who approaches you... There's simply no obligation there.

At least once. I kinda felt bad for her but, she was absolutely wrong for me!! I was also not the least bit interested in her!
