Default How to take a rejection well

Well being 'rejected' and fear of it is my major problem. If she says no it's not the end of the world, but my brain/heart don't seem to get that message in a timely manner.

It happens to everyone right, if things don't good as you would like them to things get weird, you don't see them the same anymore (obviously, she said no) and she knows you saw her more than a friend, if only for one point in time - It's something she has/had over you.

So I'm wondering what's a good way to deal with it? And I guess how to dish it out. Come on, there are girls here, when you say no to a guy how do you feel? Guilty? Like a Bitch? Honest? Nothing? ...?

Rejection isn't that bad, it's merely hurting you early so they don't kick the shit out of you when it doesn't work out later on.

...But still, it hurts, and it stalls my advances and it hinders my ability of moving on quickly without wasting time.

So uh yeah, what are your thoughts on this?

As long as you have self-esteem it shouldn't matter if a girl rejects you. There are millions of girls out there. If one doesn't like you the next one will. Or the next one. Or the next one...

What Mr. McDeere said.

You're probably best off not asking out friends anyway. If when you first meet them you're interested, just make a move then and there. Don't become friends. That fucks your chances.

It may sound arrogant and conceded, but try to view a rejection as "Well, her loss." It really is in a way unless you are a douche.

Luckily, I seem to have something built into my mind that makes me find someone who rejects me very repulsive.

I agree with this "it's her loss" deal. She was a bitch right from the start, let's face it.

Hey dickhead, I heard you were running around disobey me. Get Deus to do his all-magical trick to shut you up once and for all.

And tell him if I knew he associated with faggots like you I would never have made him mod. Yeah that's right, your boy wasn't shit until I asked for him to be modded to shut him up from asking me all the time.

Zok probably has all that Mod stuff logged so if you can't believe that, talk to him and fuck off away from me and stop being a fuckwit like you've done AGAIN here.

I like how Trousersnake and Disobey_the_norm ALWAYS post in the same thread, and he always replies to my comments with the other account. I bet now I've said this he'll reply with d_t_n and possibly TS as well.

It's pretty funny just how pathetic Trousersnake is, but it's always good for a laugh.

He really went bitter after he got demodded.

I've talked to girls. I just don't ask them out. We just get together. I've never really seen the need to ask what's already fairly obvious.

Hey thanks for sticking to the subject, you fucking children.

To the thread starter, I kinda have to disagree with the guy who said don't ask out your friends, because it can be kind of embarassing for a short period of time.

I think you should man the fuck up and set your sights for the kill. Try to open with some nonchalant shit, then chit chat, then after a minute of good, free flowing talk full of laughter, THEN move in on it. Do not abort unless it is a complete and horrible failure of a beginning conversation. Repeat, DO NOT ABORT, and DO NOT GIVE UP if you do have to abort temporarily.

I can tell by your post that you're probably pretty articulate when you speak, and pretty rational too. You need to use that in the field. Don't get nervous, they're really not worth that much.

Sure we do. The difference between he and I and you and Deus is that we don't try to have others believe we are the same person like you pair, people that think it are big enough losers to think it for themselves.

I replied to this to try to sort out one aspect of your stupidity, he'd told me you've been doing this nonsense.

I have no interest in being a mod anymore, I wouldn't call my attitude in the past (and to some degree now) bitterness because I lost my mod position, but rather because everyone was stupid and Jeff is a pussy that can't handle conflict. Big deal, this place fell to bits afterwards and all of a sudden your little pal coincidentally decided he didn't like Green Planet anymore. Wow Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) big suprise, he couldn't sustain it like I did and suddenly it is boring because of his failure.

Go on, make some stupid claims, see if I care. I'm not on totse enough anymore to care what a British cocksucker has to say. Just do that one thing I asked of you, get your pal to do the check, and if it's the same well I'm in trouble aren't I, if not maybe then you'll shut the fuck up with your stupidity leaks...but I won't hold my breath on that one.

To the person saying I derailed the thread...I'm sure OP will forgive me, that and I can't comment on this one. S&A regulars know I'm not one to talk on such matters

(Hey reject...why not realise I'm not him and half-assedly 'flame' me in that regard since you need to think you're causing some kind of stir, or better yet realise what a fucking loser you are that this is what you do with your time. Bye faggot)

lol. Anyhow this is going to be blunt but its the only way you'll learn. Your whole life society has lied to you, teaching that women are for all practical purposes goddesses who need to be bought with showers of gifts and favors. I blame disney.

Women are just dudes with different parts, just like a guy they won't bite your head off no matter what you say(leave the nasty stuff out though, you sound way too inexperienced to pull dirty talk off). Goddammit they're fucking people why do you need extra confidence to talk to them? You can talk to anybody, never once will you find someone who's day gets worse when more people talk to them.

The only way to take rejection well is to not care about the girl. If you get rejected by someone you really like it's going to hurt no matter what but just with like girls in clubs and whatever you just have to realise that it's a chance worth taking, you also have to remember that very few people will reject you in a harsh manner, half the time they'll just go to the toilet or something and not come back to the same area.

Default Re: How to take a rejection well

bro, don't try to fall in love/get emotionally attached. it just happens.

went out with this girl for like a week about a month ago, told her 'look, I'm not here to control you, you can go and do what you want', and then she cheats on me. more power to her i guess.

after a while you just get desensitized. become a player.

edit: that's a funny post.

The only way is either to force yourself over asking other girl out or creating a little compartiment in your mind where you can place people you would gladly kill for rejecting you.

Then you behave normally and pretend you have matured.

Eventually you can crush them when they are in need of emotional support and have the bad luck to ask you for it. But hey, I am a bitter man with a withered heart and a black, heavy soul. That's me.

As I said, move on and fuck whatever they said. Take their reasons as you would take the insolt of a three year-old. You wouldn't take a kid serious, right? I mean, you wouldn't hit it square in the jaw for calling you "smelly", right? Well, treat women who reject you as such. As stupid humans that do not know what chances they are missing.
