How many times you have been rejected !!!!

Dublin8

Hi was just thinking
am i the only one who has faced the wind of rejection or there are other people out there too

By rejection i mean that you asked a girl out and she rejected you or on the other hand a girl ask a boy out and she has been rejected

Anyone faced things like these

well i mean that you really like this person and you ask her/him and you get a "no" :eek: or "sorry" :eek: in return

any ideas will anyone share my pain lol

i have been rejected about 3 times as far as i can remember
from the girls i liked really and truly at some time in my life
keeping in mind i dont go much and i am very shy is that a lott ???

i wish no one has to face it . you hate ur self when that happens

Does crossing the road to avoid you count?

If this crap keeps on turning up we will need to have a teenage/asl/sex/hormonal teenager forum.

Ah LadyJ, ever on hand to offer timeless advice... and regurgitate age old proverbs!

LadyJ

Ah yeah,we all get rejected at some point but I think it's only happened to me one time that I really cared about. And the rejection was in the form of a breakup so at least I got a relationship beforehand I guess!
But I think my point is valid nonetheless. You don't know how good it can be until you've had it bad!

Do yourself a favour and stop counting.

I don't think i've ever been rejected, but I dont take many jump shots, i'm usually a long shooter myself!

TerrorFirmer

The only time I was rejected was by someone who said no, then yes about 2 days later.

Good day for me.

I once knew, and still know actually, a guy thats been rejected 40 times. Hes not ugly or anything, hes perfectly sound, he just has this aura of idiot and social retardedness about him...

....lol

Sparky

Ive been rejected about 8 times, most recent one was a girl who asked me out, and then changed her mind 4 hrs later, but shes gonna regret what she missed out on

BossArky

Liars, ha! If only you coul keep count!

I could'nt agree more with that sentiment,
After 5 years of sour "the time ive been interested in women" the sweet has never tasted so good, like.....after 2 nights ago

D

Oh come one you don't pull unless you give it a go.

Rejections: Lost count(never actually kept count)
Successes: Lost count (but probably a whole lot more than the person who never tries and that makes it all worth while)

cournioni

Eh... Once or twice. So in turn for each girl that rejected me I got a better looking girl with a better personality. Rubbed it right in their faces!

As far as being rejected in a night club or whatever. Who cares? Just rub it in their faces when you get a girl and act all friendly towards the girl that rejected you. They'll begin to think twice about it.

It is indeed.

Scarinae

Well no, but that's because I've never been brave enough to actually ask someone out... They either ask me or else we just end up together. Unless by rejection you count being dumped, in which case yeah I've been dumped twice

Tha Gopher

Been rejected once, and have rejected a bird once too

I was hurt, only bird I ever really cared about properly. But thats life. I was down as **** for about 3 days after and thought itd take months to clear, but luckily Oxegen was on the following weekend Beer, smoke, seein the wu tang clan, faithless, a dance music arena open 12 hours per day, and my introduction after 17 years of life to the joys of ecstasy and cocaine put me on a good buzz for weeks afterwards

As for the bird i booted, when she asked me out via text, i was about 15. She wasnt awful looking, but cos she wore glasses i didnt particularly fancy her, and as well as that I never seen her out at anything at all, seemed a real stay at home type, so i politely texted her back sayin i was sorta seein someone else, maybe some other time (was i bollix)
Anyway, her response was to prank call me on private number about once every 2 months pretending to be various birds, usually several times in one night and then nothin for months. I never bothered sayin "i know its you". Seein as she is such a ****in headcase i probably did best to stay clear
She still does it very occasionally, last was maybe 3 months ago now. If she finds out the name of a bird ive been with she will sometimes call me pretending to be that girl. Complete looney tune
Mind you it did result in some hilarity- in an effort to have me ringin back, for once she rang me from an unblocked number when i was out on the piss, pretending to be the bird i will mention below. Course i knew it wasnt her, but i played along a little anyway. Anyway they hung up, but rang back when me and 2 of my mates were in the jacks. After i picked up and they started their usual gibberish, the convo went somethin like this between me and my mate
Me "Here, take this phone will ya, talk to these mental bitches"
Friend(taking phone into a cublicle)"Hello......what, Gopher?(not real name obviously).....ah well, hes a bit of a legend. Tell me ladies, are yis into lesbian sex?"

This went on for at least 20 minutes, encompassing lesbianism, anal sex, blowjobs and beastialty, after which they hung up and my mate took down the no. theyd called me from onto his own phone

2 days later he rings me
"Here, ya know that number that rang your phone the other night? I rang it back and said "Howiya, i think we were talkin about blowjobs the other night", and some woman replied "Eh, this is Unas mother" and i hung the **** up!"

Wow, that was mature of her. I agree, doesn't sound like you missed much!

Well at least u had the balls to ask, right? Most guys are usually shy about doing that. Men!! U'll never know unless u ask, but hey there are plenty more fish in the sea.

Dont feel bad about getting rejected!! It happens all the time, even to people that are afraid to admit it.

Megatron

I've been rejected loads of times ...

I know that sounds very very bad, but it's not..
I'm not afraid of asking someone out , if they say no ... ahh well wasn't meant to be. If they say yes :cool: .

As was said to me upon me getting a crush on a girl who worked in the shop across the road from me , " if they say no , accept it, your not going to be able to change thier mind there and then". so thats how i live. I'll ask , see what happens.

I've only every had 1 girl tell me to fu-ck off, and i got to use the best line ever ... "Sorry no, you didn't hear me ... you look fat in that dress".

Mind you i did have run alot that night

knifey_spoonie

Theres no prob asking somebody you dont know but somebody you have known for a while can just make you feel alienated.I find with friends its best to let things happen and not to push a person.a few months of luvin compared to years of friendship ill take the latter.

But then when you dress up as santa and have 7 hot girls on your lap you have to ask one or seven of them

boneless

Been rejected, ejected, dissected and even disinfected on many, many occasions. Remember that spider in the Robert the Bruce legend? My advice is if at first you don't succeed... kill the spider!!

arbeitsscheuer

Funnily enough never...

Mainly cos I don't ask unless I'm 90% certain of what the answers gonna be.

It's got to the stage where I don't even think about the possibility of rejection any more, cos I'd never be stupid enough to put myself on the line like that anyway.

Hah, brilliant!
Nice that you had it ready.

What was the opener to that one? I can't remember now, but I know it's funny.

melekalikimaka

Never have...never will (fingers crossed)

Le Rack

somesones full of themselves.... (cough Melekalikimaka cough)
or has never had the chance to be rejected......
neh, me? a few times here and there....

I go for the mud on wall approach.


Throw enough of it and some of it will stick.

All the most sucessful lads I know might get shot down 9 times out of ten or maybe even more!

The secret is to know when you are wasting your time.


I mirrored this video (118mb) a while back for someone else.

If you are on broadband give it a blast.

Its incredibly cheesey and cringe-worthy nevermind a bit creeepy. But some of it does hold true. Especially reading the signs.

The Bollox

too many times I can't keep track anymore lol

banquo

as a result of a little misunderstanding / slander, I once actually had a premptive rejection.

pretty*monster

Just the once, a few months ago. I broke my, "never have anything to do with a guy who doesn't like you as much as you like him" rule.

It was frustrating and painful and the like for a while. Then I got over it.

I think it's a good thing to get rejected. Lets you know that it's not the end of the world and strangely gave me more confidence re. guys.

Huh?! :eek:

If you say so darlin, personally I'm gonna try and avoid said rejection for as long as I possibly can. Your outlook is kinda like "no pain, no gain" - No painful rejection, then no growth in confidence yadda yadda...

I like to think that the person who first said "no pain,no gain" then got hit by a truck. I'd like to see how that pain gained him/her anything

But then I have a whacked outlook on things (clearly) :cool:

Once you get rejected you realise it's not the end of the world and you don't have to worry about it any more. It's kind of a weight off you're shoulders. And once you get over the initial "wow, that really fu(king hurts" feeling, you're a lot stronger for it.
