    Yes! I was heartbroken AF! I chased this guy for a whole year. In the end he didn’t want anything more than “just being friends”. I respected that and I moved on with my life. I’m glad I did because now I’m with someone who makes me feel so much happier!!
    I’m not doing the chasing by the way LOL.
    Sometimes God removes people from your life... to replace it with someone you actually need and that deserves to be in you life.

    Well, depends of the madurity I had on that time.
    By now, I understand it, and I move forward, if she says let's be friends, I try to feel if it's what she really wants or not.

    Yes, of course. The earliest rejection of my life was an "Ew, no" in 6th grade. Two boys said I was the ugliest thing they'd ever seen in their lives.

    Adulthood: After a first date, he said we didn't click as much in person as we did on the phone before previously meeting. I explained that nerves can cause things to not be as comfortable and was a bit hurt. A week later, he begged me for a second date, which I suspect was not because he had reconsidered but rather that dating wasn't going as he had planned.

    If you have been in more than one relationship, them you have probably experienced rejection. When I was young, I was devastated by rejection but, now, I don't care that much. I just think to myself 'it wasn't meant to be' and I start looking for my next victim! :)

    I’ve never been directly rejected but there’s one guy I’ve been friends with since childhood. I’ve liked him on off and throughout the years. Recently we were talking about his exes and he said ”Funny thing is i can’t imagine myself falling for you because you’re pretty much family & you don’t fall for family” - that did hurt a bit but at the end of the day to be called family by someone is a pretty big deal and I love him too much because of which i’ve made peace with the fact that we will always be just friends and honestly , i’m content with that because relationships come and go but friendship is ❤️

    Yes my reaction was plain ok I get it.
    Deep down I was pissed off not because she rejected me but because of the way she rejected me.
    I asked her out and she said she won’t not because she didn’t like me but because she didn’t know me despite actually knowing each other for years and even then I knew that and that’s exactly why I asked her on a date. She basically bs’ed me to my face and that’s one thing I absolutely hate. Don’t ever reply to me with dishonesty after I open up to you honestly about my true feelings.

    Oh yeah, and the first couple of times it felt like I got slapped in the face and I felt like junk. I got more used to it over time, but there was truly only one girl that had the guts to tell me straight up she didn't like me like I liked her, had mad respect for her after that. Better than the girls that would say "Maybe some other time," or "I have this going on..."

    Nowadays it's more like, "Aw, shit. Well, onto the next girl." Always helps to practice and maintain abundance mindset

    I was rejected once, but now I think about it, it’s hilarious! I met this girl and I thought she was an amazing person! I asked her out and she really responded very harshly and I was kinda shocked!

    I think she later realized she did a mistake and came to me and apologized, but I was no longer thinking about her anymore! When she apologized, I said: “Don’t worry, I was wrong” and she immediately turned red! Ohh my God, it was priceless! 😂

    Haven't been rejected per se but I got ghosted by someone because I think he feared I would reject him... kinda the same thing. I was obsessed and it hurt for a long time but now I see him on the street and think pfft loser.

    In my case was something like this:

    - Sorry, but you are my best friend ex so no.
    - I understand, no problem.

    I've been rejected. I try to find out why and get her to like me, but if that doesn't work in a simple attempt, I just pretend to be cool with it. Resolve my sorrows in my den. Works out fine and saves the drama.

    Nothing actually bit hurt the first few times but after that you don't really feel anything.

    Rejected? About 90% of the time, but I have a thick skin (perhaps a thick head, too?) so I keep swinging. The hits make the strike out irrelevant.
