I've never had anyone tell me "no".
Never been turned down for any job or any application, ever.
Never had a girl blow me off or decline a date.

not sure how I would handle it.

For what you're speaking of, I would just say instead of thinking of yourself as the cause, think of them. Maybe they're weird? Maybe they're having a bad day?
I'm the kind of guy that's like "F*ck what anyone else thinks".

You should reach out more. You'd be surprised at how many people experience the same shit you do and feel the same way about others. I've noticed that most people are overcautious so you gotta shake their daily routine of bullshit up and reach out.

Sounds like a self esteem issue. No one is better than anyone else. Stop trying to read peoples minds..it doesn't work. For every pot, there is a lid.

teamkiller said: I was reflecting today, and it suddenly occurred to me that i've developed no successful mechanism to deal with rejection. I just feel bad and i'm used to that feeling so i continue about my day like normal.
I'm not talking like major rejection like the love of ur life saying she's not into you either. I'm talking like the cute girl walking down the street won't make eye contact and intentionally looks away. i'm talking like the people that work next door and smoke cigs in the same ally as you say hello but don't really want to make conversation and don't seem to care about or respond to anything you say.
I'm starting to get pretty old, so it feels weird to me that those things make me feel as bad as they did when i was a kid. I just never learned a way to deal with it.
I wouldn't quite consider some cute girl walking down the street that avoids eye contact as a rejection of any sort . And if some folks like you mentioned, that work close by smoking cigs in the ally, don't want to make conversation or aren't interested in what you have to say....then to me it's not even worth the energy to feel rejected.
I dunno, I have a weird approach to these sorts of things. Only time I think I'd actually feel a genuine sense of "rejection", is if it was from someone I cared about or within my life that was avoiding me for a silly reason that I don't feel justifies the rejection. (besides situations like you mentioned, being rejected by the love of my life sort of thing)
Generally I don't let stuff like people rejecting or ignoring me bother me.....
What's I find a little funny about this thread/post...You're actually the only member on the shroomery that's ignoring me .
