I've always said that rejection is part of life. It's how you deal with it that matters. I like to think that I handle it well, and try to seek the positive from rejection as "what can I do better next time?"
On here? it's not real rejection. So I don't give a fuck. |

"When I was married I wouldn't try to instigate sex as he would be nasty if he didn't want it. It's made me wary of approaching men now" I know that one, bad vibes hardly make you " the temptress"

"A rejection is only a rejection when the "rejectee" thinks it is. It could also simply be seen as "different strokes for different folks" ? "

"i'd rather be someone shot of the finest 18 year old whiskey, than everyones same cup to tea" |

That's the definition of rejection on here... Not giving a fuck. Or getting one. |

I would guess just about every guy still here after 12 mins is used to it but accepting it? I would say in reality it varies with each day sometimes its what a bugger others its hey ho and the odd time its relief but accepting it is never a problem that's life but I would be a liar if I said I wasn't disappointed at times as I only contact people I am attracted to. |

rejection on here can take several forms from people blocking you to unpleasant emails. Luckily I havent suffered either yet (and no thats not a cue for you lot to send me a load of random dear johns )
on here its mostly just about 2 or more people having fun and doing what they all want to do. if someone doesnt want to play then thats cool and just walk on

I think it would depend on what the rejection was to how I would take it. I'm quite a sensitive little soul at heart.
On here I'm not emotionally involved with anyone so can't see being rejected as an issue. |

Generally it doesn't bother me as I seldom ask people for a meet, so it's not a factor. However, on the odd time I have requested a meet and feel that I strongly match what they are looking for and then get blown out, I do feel a bit puzzled and deflated. I just build a Voodoo Doll likeness and spend the rest of the week chucking darts at it and sitting on it when I need to fart. |

Same for me. I was made to feel like I was attacking my ex if I started anything but the one time I rejected him as I was knackered after a really ling day at work I got it in the neck!!!
It still does affect my forwardness in instigating sex even though I know I won't get the same reaction as before. |

I don't care about on this site. But I would never approach anyone in a club. And it is this reason why we have never played I assume. It's all to do with my lack of confidence and fear of rejection. I get so frustrated with myself for not approaching anyone but I just can't, even with a drink in me.

"If you can't handle rejection then swinging is not for you
I disagree we are on here for a reason where we don't appeal to some and they may reject it does not mean we don't appeal to others "
I agree with Misscheeky... It depends on how you are rejected. Some ppl can be very cruel and vile when a polite no would surfice |

That's rubbish! You could say the same about dating, applying for jobs, all sorts, rejection is a part of everyday life. |

Sometimes we float someone's boat sometimes we don't....it's not an issue. However if getting meets is important to your self esteem then you are likely to take it as a rejection and feel it more.
Being rejected when emotionally involved might make it more difficult to let go and move on. |

Not fearful of anything. Miffed if rejected for a job as only apply for ones I really want. Upset but don't show it if girls *reject* me for their dad. On here? Oh please! |

On here its forgotten about within 5 seconds
In real life I was once rejected by someone I was crazy about, I now have no fear as I know that nothing will ever make me feel as shit as that did. |

On here it doesn't bother me. I wouldn't shag me so although I send messages, no thanks is the default setting for expectations. Interest is a positive rather than lack of interest being a negative. |

I tend to think I don't particularly like/fancy everybody so I think it's unreasonable for everybody to like/fancy me. (Even tho I'm gorgeous lol) Just part of life I suppose. |

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.. Though I'm sure I've ignored the wisdom behind that many times and on occasion discovered that the fear of failure/rejection is far more crippling than the failure/rejection itself...
Sadly that knowledge probably won't make a massive difference to decisions about future endeavours! |
