Once upon a time, there was a girl. This girl was smart, intelligent, working to put herself through her last year of college with her own apartment with no children. She was pretty, funny and had a bright future ahead of us. She met this guy. He was handsome, hardworking, educated and had no women, children and drama. Girl meets boy. Girl becomes smitten with boy and gets up the courage to tell boy how she feels about him. Boy feels the same way and they live happily ever after. Sounds like a cute PG-13 movie with the happy ending.
So many of us try to act like rejection doesn't happen to us, and for some people, that may be a reality. However, for the majority of us it isn't. Rejection is a part of life. What's good for the goose isn't always good for the gander. You can't be right for everyone. Just because you read signals wrong or you really genuinely felt something for someone who didn't feel the same way, it doesn't make you any less of a good person or any less worthy of having someone who will love you unconditionally someday.
So many of us try to avoid the feeling that being rejected gives us which leads to being afraid of expressing yourself and putting your heart out in the open. Sometimes you have to get hurt to know what it feels like when it's right. After you get over that initial feeling of hurt, you realize that rejection has nothing to do with your physical appearance, your personality, or whether or not you're deserving of someone loving you. Every rejection you bounce back from makes it easier to go out and take the next risk that may be the one to lead to your happy ending.
Just a thought :)
