Preceived Rejection
In reading the forums, blogs and based on personal experience I have decided that rejection comes in many forms. Some people feel rejected if they haven't gotten many contacts (if any at all) on date sites. Perhaps they feel they are too big, too little, too short, too whatever to garner interest. To me that shows low self esteem and ego. Unfortunately some of us obsess over this and never seem to "get over it". However, this is just our perception, biased as it may be.The real rejection comes when one reaches out and is turned away politely or not. Now that is cause for feelings of inferiority in some way. I suppose (for me) it's best to cover that rejection with a "oh well, his loss" type attitude and move on.
Just another bump in an already crooked road.

For what is rejection......but the truth of what we are not but wish to be......being presented to us by others?
Better to be in the now, as is...and happy.....then in the somewhere else, hoping for that which we are not....and unhappy.
The main thing is though NurcNurc,
that we not reject ourselves in Real Life.
That's who we really have to answer to when the chips are down. The rest is comparatively incidental.
See that steep hill just up ahead? The one with the big tree on top? Right beyond the crest, on the other side, the road straightens out a lot. In fact you won't recognize it as being the same old road.
Funny how that is, huh?

And thanks, I could use a few good word after tonight.
im excited
I blogged in response to feeling badly for people making threads over "why don't I get picked" and the like. So I recalled some of my personal experiences of being rejected and put it all together.
Sometimes I blog
Sometimes a slob
Always a prize
Try on for size!
Good grief that was awful
No there should be no inferiority complex bcoz the person who neglect us are the person who don't deserve us ...
