1.Theres always another day, another chance.

You have your whole life to live and interact with people and retry.

Getting rejected that time means nothing.

Joel Valve

you could be the tastiest peach in the world and there will still be someone who hates peaches.

2.What do you get if you dont ask?

The same thing you get if you are rejected.

3.If you really like them, wouldnt you want them to be happy?

4.It really is not so much about you.

5.If you have a fulfilling life without a significant other, then it doesnt matter if you get rejected.

If you dont have a fulfilling life, a significant other isnt going to give it any more meaning.

Not interestedis the best thing ever to hear.

Not knowing what people want is the most annoying thing ever.

You have that right also.

Remember that and rejection is much easier to handle.

9.Putting your hopes into a situation where you may get a no is just setting yourself up for heartbreak.

Fall in love with them, not the idea of them OR the idea of being in love.

Rejection doesnt matter when you dont have high expectations in the first place.

Odds are, one of them is my perfect match.

Even if the chance is one in a million.

Theres 3,500 perfect guys for me.

12.99% of women arent going to want to be with you.

You just have to find the 1% that are.

13.Dating someone is playing the game of life together.

So when you say hey wanna be my player two?

And they say nah thank god they were up front.

Now you know where you stand, and you know that they dont want to be your P2.

People dont just say yes to whoever is a good enough person.

So getting rejected really doesnt mean much.

You could be an amazing person and still get rejected.

The person rejecting you could even think youre really cool.

Or move on and live?

Right, move on and live.

See we all have 86,400 second each day.

Dont let someones negative 10 seconds ruin the remaining 86,390.

Dont sweat the small stuff, life is bigger than that.

16.Well, if someone doesnt want me then why would I want them?

Now Im not with this person.

If she doesnt want to hang out, Im still not with her.

See what Im saying?

Besides, there are so many people out there youre bound to find someone youre compatible with.

17.Im a person that wants things, so is the other person.

We may not want the same thing, and thats okay.

18.It comes down to your mindset being positive.

I look at it as I would rather take the shot and miss than sit and wonder what if.

You have to remember the pain is temporary, it stings but doesnt last.

Plus the next time you take a shot you may connect.

Granted you may shoot and miss but you build off failure, its the only way to get better.

People reject others because they know for, whatever reason, that it wouldnt work out.

Why would you want to pursue something that wouldnt work out?

Celebrate the fact that you were brave enough to take a chance.

20.30 min grace period to be sad and angry and such.

After that, I move on, and start looking for another person.

Plenty of fish in the sea, you will never catch any if you never cast your line.

21.Rejection is just a form of opinion.

Everyone has an opinion.

It doesnt mean you have to agree with them, whether its about you or Jesus.

Beyond that, the key to rejection is knowing yourself.

Finding comfort through discomfort.

22.Understanding that rejection isnt the end of the world.

You gotta let it go and move on.

23.Most people dont know enough about me to reject me.

24.Just reminded yourself that if you get rejected youre right back in the place you started.

And just because someone or something says yes doesnt necessarily mean youll be better off.

25.They didnt like me, no big deal.

Im OK with myself and if people dislike me that is a part of life.

I dont enjoy it, but it happens and Im not upset by it.

Thats the way it is.

No way around it- it just sucks.

But you might make it suck less by taking it a different way.

Having a mindset/attitude like this makes a world of a difference.

Rather than thinking that Im not good enough, I try and figure out how to avoid rejection later.

Its always best not to dwell on the bad things.

Its really that simple.

Literally you have to train yourself to stop thinking, stop fantasizing and just be there in the moment.

When the moment passes so does the pain of rejection because you are on to the next moment.

If your emotions are not chips on the table then you cant lose them.

Flesh bags are flesh bags.

If one likes you, awesome.

If one doesnt, their loss.

Almost no one succeeds on their first try, or their first 10 even.

), but not by much, and heres why: beautyISin the eye of the beholder.

Tons of guys also like petite girls too!

Hence bringing us back to the whole 5% odds thing.

Also dont call it rejection thats inherently harsh, something like incompatible is more appropriate perhaps.

30.First off dont develop a crush or anything.

Dont place them on a pedestal.

32.Not being with someone that doesnt want to be with you is a win.

33.That the line you win some, you lose some is as accurate as can be.

34.Lots and lots of rejection made me stop putting all my eggs in one basket.

I stopped putting so much emphasis on one situation.

Stopped assigning so much of my happiness on this person saying yes or that person saying yes.

If you dont try you wont even have a chance so why not?

Watching the locals hit on tourists at the Spanish Steps in Rome was an awakening.

Often, they were friends, they didnt care.

Its like they thought of it as a probability game.

If there is a 1% chance, all I have to do is ask a 100 women.

37.No expectations = No disappointment.

Also, its absurd to think that everyone is just going to be into you.

Some people will certainly dislike you, some for good reasons, and others for shallow reasons.

it doesnt matter, and theres nothing it’s possible for you to do about it anyway.

If anything, pay attention to how others treat you.

You dont have to force anything really.

Your odds go way up when you take shots at people who have already shown a little interest.

Also, not even the hottest people are batting 1.000.

Everyone gets rejected, just accept it as a fact of life and move forward, learn from it.

39.Not taking it so personal anymore.

There are plenty of great people I know that Id never date, for whatever reason.

If someones not compatible with you thats ok, it just is what it is.

No right or wrong.

40.Im fucking awesome and its their loss not mine.
