How many times have you been rejected?

So your answer is yes, you think calling women lying demons from hell is less stupid and evil than controlling them.

Y'know what, I guess I agree, but I was trying to make the point that you are also an ass about women and maybe the whole "does that make you feel like a real man?" thing doesn't work coming from you.

I have never been rejected, because I never asked anyone. All the people I felt attracted to except for my boyfriend were unreachable anyway for one reason or another, and my bf asked me before I ever thought about romance.

And you NEVER ranted about ANYONE that you felt has done you wrong? So you are saying that ranting about people and accually going out forcing them to do something/ hurting them is the same thing, its not. A man knows where the limit is and respects it. I always have.

Ranting about a person's specific actions and making sweeping generalizations are two entirely different things, and no amount of personal experience will makes amount to each other. I think sometimes the line between is crossed, whether on purpose or by accident.

I've quit counting. Far too often, is the short answer.
I rejected someone once... and there are times I think I probably shouldn't have.
I broke off a relationship once... because I was scared. And I regret that, too.

But I am so tired of rejection. I can't even offer to buy a woman a cup of coffee these days without getting knocked back. And internet dating just sucks. Been there, done that.

Of course I have. The difference? I didn't include an entire gender or a race in a blanket statement. Why? To do so is IDIOCY.

Yeah, you're very respectful of those lying demons from hell.

That's seriously, seriously screwed up. Get help.

It gets the job done, I tried in past to make connections with people it ends with me being used up and hurt every time, so I now cut out the drama part.

Most people at a gym do not care what other people look like or even look at other people. They either want people to look at them because they think they're Charles Atlas, or they want to be ignored because they're not quite as fit as they would like to be.

Speaking of rejection, I was bluntly rejected by a woman who said that she preferred "tall muscular men . . . the extroverted kind." I was much larger than I am now. I got mad and started working out. Out of embarrassment, I would run at night, lift free weights in the house, and drastically change my eating habits. Although never becoming totally muscular, I did work myself into the best shape of my life two years ago (a serious injury put me out of commission for several months and it's taken over a year to work my way back into shape).

Yes, I do get rejected. I'll tell you what: I've been rejected more since this experience than before. But I've also had more success. Why? While I'm no Casanova, I have put myself out there more. I'm still looking, and still have to work on confidence.

There are many women out there who want tall, muscular, extroverted men. I try to profile these women and avoid them. Who knows what any woman wants.

The positive side of getting rejected through online dating sites is that you don't have to go out and spend money to get rejected. You can get rejected without even leaving your home.

If a date truly goes bad, the woman almost always picks up her own tab, & sometimes even yours too!!

You know it's a bad sign when she picks up her own tab. But to pick up yours . . .?

Either it went really well or she just wants to get the heck out of Dodge, no quibbling about the bill!

I've been rejected more times than I can count...I just can't bear to be rejected anymore.

Tim (aka the Slipperman)

asked out two... but one was when i was like, 12/13 and it was on msn, so i don't really count that. the second was after liking her for two years and only telling her when she told me she was changing schools. she told me she'd go out with me if not for the school change. i believed it at the time, but it was probably just her being gentle.

been asked out twice formally... i tried to reject them both, but they were persistent, so i said yes - but dumped them within the next day i'm awful at commitment. since those two i've had three girls tell me they like me, but i lost interest in them before pursuing a proper relationship. once again, awful at commitment.

i feel confident that when the right girl comes i'll be able to ask her out and not get rejected.

How did it feel when the girls asked you out?
