Been a while for me too. I suppose I try not to put myself in the predicament so as not to be rejected. That is probably the reason I have not dated in so long. Been hurt so many times, I don't feel like putting my heart back out there for another disappointment.

First Question: I would make myself express interest despite the fear of rejection.
Second Question: If rejected, would chalk it up to experience and move on....
My dad always used to tell me that there were never any stupid questions and the worst anyone could say was no.

i am afraid it happens all the time.
We like them,they are not into us
They like us we are not into them
I guess its just part of the dating process,we need to be interested enough in that person to want to be with them,but we don't want to feel trapped.We all need attention,to love and feel loved.We just have to fine someone who wants the same thing as us,who has the same interests.
Nobody likes everyone so we will be rejected some times,the trick is to not take it personal.

That's what's hard. Not to take it personal. You've been talking to a person for quite sometime. You tell him/her you are interested only to find out they feel differently. They want to remain friends. It's hard to look at him/her the same way.

OK, no cute and funny this time . If someone was not interested in you( and yes it does happen ) they should let you know in a polite and courtious way. If this is not the case, Then the person in question isn't worth the time you spent wondering about them. People come in all veriaties and if rudness or any other similar trate is predominate then be glad you found out early . This is predomanatly a dating site, however only so much information can be transmitted through any given profile. Undesirable trates can mostly be found by personal contact . This not only takes psyical effort it also takes it's emotional one . The bottom line would be nothing ventured, nothing gained . You could also add " If it doesn't happen then it wasn't ment to be ".I do not know if this helps you or not at least it didn't hurt !What would you do if you told someone you were interested and were then rejected?

Two things. I think men are better equiped to deal with rejection because men are more often the ones making the first move, at least that's how it was back in the day.
The second thing is often it's better to have a gf drop the hints to the guy because she will get a more honest answer than you will. A guy will feel put on the spot if you come on to him and he doesn't feel the same as you. Most guys have a really hard time telling a chic he's not interested. Very often he will just dissappear rather than be put in a position of having to hurt your feelings.
