OK so that's 2 votes to support my theory. 2nd part of the question, have you ever tried to imagine how it feels to be a guy and to get rejected on a regular basis? Or have you ever tried to imagine what it would have felt like if the very first time you ever told some one you liked them at the age of say, 12, you got rejected?
I have tried to imagine it, but I don't give much thought too it...I think men need to realize that if there are obvious signs that the woman doesn't like you, then don't ask her out...One of my classmates just randomly asked me out, when I even told him that I didn't like him. Then he complained about how horrible I am. Sometimes you bring it on yourself.
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this, a great many women are obsessed with "letting the guy make the first move." So they will send no signs one way or another.
If guys do not approach girls, no one will ever hook up. I think men need to realize rejection is not a big deal and push through the pain.
But my point is that the first 50 times, it hurts. Its a big part of men's psyche and women aren't even aware of it. No woman can understand men if they don't think about it.
I agree with the first point you made, but in my opinion, if a woman doesn't shows any signs of interest - then don't approach her, and you save yourself a rejection. If she is interested, but doesn't show it - well that's her problem, not yours.
I have only approached men for sex, so it's not true that if a man doesn't make a move no one will ever hook up.
yes I have been rejected before, because he didn't like my hair, but its kinda dumb cause he is always flirting with me now

Thx, so the second part of my question. Was that your first rejection? How old were you when it happened? How did it make you feel?
See my theory is most men experience several rejection at a very young age it emotionally scars them, while women do not have the same experience, Your answers will tell me whether I am right or not.
I got rejected when I was like 14 or 15, and it hurt bad, so I never ever ask a guy anymore, and I will never ask a guy out in front of his friends cause they just laugh
OK, I think this kinda supports my general theory. Being rejected, especially at a young age, hurts a lot. It often affects people for decades afterwards.
People who have never had it happen to them never understand what a big deal it actually is, they just brush it aside as a small thing. And most of the people who've never been rejected are women.
OK so that's one vote to support my theory. Have you ever tried to imagine what it feels like to be a guy and to get rejected? My theory was that you would not have.
I really never thought about how guys feel when they are rejected....I think they may get used to it with time, right... My cousins and friends don't care if a girl reject them...they just think at least I tried...I think they are very mature and know how to face these situations... :)
Well the healthy thing to do is get used to it and move on, of course. What you described with your cousin is what I think all men should do. I merely pointing out that most girls are UTTERLY clueless about how it feels to be a man. Especially growing up. It would be nice to have a little more understanding between the sexes. A lot of women seem to think its easy being a man, but the real truth is men just don't talk about their pain.
What it boils down to is that being rejected hurts. It takes a while for a growing man to get used to it and reach a point where it doesn't bother them.
I don't women could handle what men have to handle every day (rejection). I think most women would be utterly destroyed by the pain men go through, I think most women do not realize this and in that way they take men for granted.

Lol, you need to talk to "courteneysugar" in here response she says she never shows any sign at all to her crushes.
no but i know it's probably gonna happen, and im dreading it.
yes I have been rejected before, because he didn't like my hair, but its kinda dumb cause he is always flirting with me now

Thx that's interesting, so in the context of my theory, you'd be a girl who actually understands what most every guy went through growing up.
Was it just the one time when you were 14 or 15?
Yes, I was so embarrassed

I've NEVER approached a guy, and I'm scared to even talk to my crushes
SO have you ever wondered how it feels to be a guy, when having at least some of your crushes reject you is simply a fact of life?
No, because I never approached any guy.
