"I remind myself of reasons I've rejected other people and think, not everyone floats my boat. It doesn't always necessarily need to feel so personal. Sometimes I just don't feel that spark of attraction. One person's trash is another person's treasure, so I dust myself off and focus on what I'm attracted too. " 100% ![]() | |||

"Honest opinions i find it hard to believe that it doesnt bother someone at all but i could be wrong. Do you feel you deal with it well, do you internalise it or externalise it. Would you change your attitude towards someone if it was a polite no or not right now - i get that you would change somewhat in terms of effort and interest but would you make it clearly evident if you came across them on here. Ive found lately a few nasty sarc comments if they happen to come across me in a thread which is fine let people do them i can get over it but it just got me thinking about how i deal with it. Ive been rejected/its a polite no lots of times just like others and i find that although it can be dissappointing i would still be able to share a friendly comment if i came across them in a thread or passing. Sorry for the long rendition of my thoughts im just having a reflective saturday." It’s just part of life and I’ve learned that stressing over things that are completely out of my control leads to a dark path. Obviously a polite no thank you is easier to deal with than a “ f**k off you’re fugly” but try and treat them the same, see if there is any learning that can be gained from the experience and move on. If I can offer one bit of advice? You have a lot going for you, not only are you v attractive but from other threads it’s clear you’re good fun with a cracking sense of humour. So be kind to yourself, your worth is not based on the opinions of other people ![]() | |||

"It depends is my very helpful answer. I can be prone to RSD which makes rejection physically painful so I don’t tend to put myself out there unless I’m fairly sure of a yes. And because I can feel it deeply I struggle with rejecting others. I’ll tend to deflect. I might not have even answered the question here. I start typing and the tangents happen 🤣" No you really have i was just interested in different opinions.. although i do feel the context of what i was getting at has been misconstrued i am not saying that i massively struggle with rejection im saying i struggle with awkward sometimes unkind interactions after this | |||

"For me, I used to take rejection quite hard. I’d internalise it, sometimes too much. But over time — and often only in hindsight — I started to see a pattern: rejection almost always led me somewhere better. Not instantly, and not without a sting, but eventually. That was a big shift in mindset. It might sound counterintuitive, but I’ve come to try and embrace rejection, use it as a fuel, or at least not fear it. Life without rejection is a fantasy. And if you can take it with a bit of grace, I honestly believe it’s quite liberating. That said, I still feel it. I'm human. A kind “no” or “not right now” still registers — but I wouldn’t hold it against someone, and try to act with good grace and dignity. Like you, I’d still be happy to leave a friendly comment or nod if I saw them around. Not everything needs to be personal. I’ve noticed those sarcastic digs too at times — people weaponising a moment of quiet rejection or difference. It says more about them than it does about us. And I love this quote: “If you live for people’s acceptance, you’ll die from their rejection.” That one stayed with me. So yes — reflect away. I think you’re handling it with far more grace than most." I love this comment. Thank you ❤️ and such a lovely way to put it too | |||

"Hey Op. I've read the op and I'm going to take it in a slightly different direction to most posters. If someone is bitchy, rude or whatever else after I've said no to meeting/ seeing them again, it confirms that they weren't the right person for me. Generally I like to be friendly towards people and sometimes people have said disappointingly cruel things after I've said no thank you. And that stings for a little bit and then I remember that hurt people hurt others. We're not compatible. Sometimes I've snapped back because I'm flawed. Not my finest moment and I wish I hadn't. If we've never met it's easier to ignore. I think perhaps people become overinvested in the ideal? Or maybe they're *led* on, not deliberately. People are complicated." Thanks _eli ❤️ you are probably right i maybe just need to be less affected by other peoples reactions and put my big girl pants on. | |||

I don't think rejecting someone is about them so much as it is about you (the general you) - if you're polite in response, carry on as you are. You're doing far better than me. Don't let it take up too much headspace. 🩷 | |||

"Thanks for all the comments but again this is NOT me saying i struggle with rejection 🤣🤷♀️ i really need to think about how i word things. Does it sting yes! Am i able to immediately dust myself off and move on from it also YES But thanks for all the contributions" It's the constant rejection though. The utter inability to make any connection, regardless of the number of times you change/improve yourself, that grinds you down through self-pity, and into bitterness. Yes, you can leave here, but the rejection continues. For the millionth time you put on your brave face and help others, then go home to find the loneliness waiting, judging you in the dark. Thankfully, there are threads like this where we can share a little and find the tiny bit of resilience that gets us to tomorrow. | |||

"If I am chatting to someone and I can feel that there is no chemistry there , or maybe that the timing is just not quite right for one of us , then I just won’t progress it, so there is no rejection as such.

"Say "it's your loss" and then go off and cry. Not really, but I do internalise it. I avoided approaching people for fear of rejection when I was younger as a result. I'm a bit more relaxed about it now. " Its ok i will console you ... when i stop crying too... apparently 🤣🤷♀️ | |||

I feel for us all if someday say's no not interested etc we are intelligent people and can understand boundaries and that no is a no. Yes for some people rejection can make them feel shit. A rejection is not a reflection on who we are it's a reflection on that people are not suited with each other. | |||

That definitely is shame on any man who thinks that they are in the right to do that to anyone let alone a woman. Why not? I am no different to anyone else but again this wasnt about me being rejected not being rejected it was more about how other people feel about it. But yes i agree noone man or woman should have to deal with abuse because someone does not feel attracted to them. My apologies for the assumption. I feel for us all if someday say's no not interested etc we are intelligent people and can understand boundaries and that no is a no. Yes for some people rejection can make them feel shit. A rejection is not a reflection on who we are it's a reflection on that people are not suited with each other." No its fine dont worry. But i would just like to clarify that yes i absolutely do get rejected quite often and rightly so im not going to be everyones type just like everyone isnt my type. I have jiggly bits, a few stretchmarks here and there and not a washboard abs stomach which is not going to be someones type and im ol with that. But to assume i dont get rejected because of a few good pics on a fab profile would be silly. We are all different in our own ways and the medicine to life is everyone has different tastes and thats what makes it more fun. | |||

"It used to get to me, but now I’m just like….next! But…I have rejected someone, whom I spoke to for a very long time, and now we no longer speak cause of it ![]() See this was the actual point of my thread. I dont understand that part of it but maybe im just too soft as i can really enjoy someones company and everything else just not the sexual attraction part but i guess i must also respect that they dont want just that part also 🤷♀️ | |||

"If I've ever said no thank you to someone on Fab it's not a reflection on who they are as a person. I just don't feel attraction to them. Not everyone would feel attraction to me, so that's fine. If it was rejection when I really fancied someone in person, outside of Fab, then yeah that would be tough, but the same applies. Try not to take it personally. " Ill get me coat 🤪 | |||

In the beginning,I did find it difficult to process,and it does impact your self-esteem I don't care what anyone says. I did find it easily to accept a rejection from those that were polite enough to take the time to respond, even though no one is under any obligation to do so, and given 'no reply is a reply'. Others I have found to be be unnecessarily rude and obnoxious, where they have gone out of their way to compose nasty/snide/ messages so bullet dodged in that case thankfully. Those individuals I immediately block and put firmly in my rear view. If encountered in the forums, I simply ignored, but not in a petty fashion, I am bigger than than and refuse to lower myself to their standards and engage in childish squabbling. This whom have been polite and respectful in their rejections, I bear no ill will towards and have no problem interacting with, similarly with those who expertise 'no reply is a reply'. I respect their choice. Participating in the forums is definitely a positive and does soften the blow of rejections, and i'd like to think I've developed new friendships there. Thank you to those and others with whom interacted with in any way in any thread, you are the reason why I have stayed. You are all beautiful, and very change who you are. ![]() | |||

"I find rejection really hard to deal with. I’m all honesty I don’t know how I deal with it. Used to be lots of self deprecation. These days it’s just a lot of talking some time and then getting back on the horse. " I think more people feel this than like to admit if im being honest. It used to really hit me hard when i was younger and i ended up building this self sabotage mechanism were i would push people away before they could do it to me. | |||
