356 Entries for “rejection”

  1. I have been rejected so many times these past two months, by the same guy, over and over. I ended the friendship as a result. I wanted to give him an ultimatum, “her or me”, but I already knew the answer, so I couldn’t ask. The ultimate rejection would be hearing his response…

  2. i want to leave, turn away, escape from it. on the other hand, i want to sink into the sadness, melt into the misery, wallow, and let it overtake me.

  3. rejection. ejection. flying out from your comfort zone into the air. repeat.

  4. I feel rejection when you look at me and smile. I know what you see is not what I feel. I wish that you would turn around and kiss me, but to do so would be to admit defeat and we all know that is never going to happen.

  5. Rejection. Pain, shock. It’s like you’ve been slapped in the face, or stabbed in the chest, or simply just lied to. Hated. Rejected. Because that’s all everything ever was – a lie, built off the premise that you really had something. When you finally confess, you’re slapped for it. Stabbed. Lied to. Rejection – it hurts.

  6. so desperate to tell you, but so afraid of rejections. afraid to be let down and for all hope to be lost. i love our state right now, hope and no room for rejection.

  7. I refuse to write about this word. That should sum it up pretty well.

  8. Rejection is the clear saran wrap around me and you.
    You made it very simple.
    You didn’t want me and all my metallic mush.
    You held the hands.
    You dealt the rejection.

  9. I hate being rejected as I’m sure does anyone else. But I am worried often that people won’t like me although i havent the slightest idea why. i am pretty secure with who i am and find that people generally do like me. but sometimes there is that one person that just isn’t interested at all. why?

  10. Rejection is something that nobody ever wants to feel. It’s a sort of pain that hurts the surface of a thin layer everyone has inside them; the need and want to be WANTED by another person. By being rejected, this want is being taken away from them, along with many other embarrassing emotions that come with it. In short, rejection is bad.

  11. Here it came in the mail the letter she had been waiting for since the beginning of her summer. It was either the letter of acceptance or rejection from the school of her dreams. She opened it slowly only to be dropped to the floor in tears by the rejection. She felt lost and confused it was the only school that she applied to.

  12. I have never been rejected before. i’ve rejected people before. Not many. I’ve only had a few people have crushes on me or like me. i actually thought that no one would ever really like me. Rejection isnt’ fun. I try not to reject people, and if I do I try to be nice about it. I know I wouldn’t want to be rejected harshly. it’s just not nice. there is a problem with people being nice nowadays so everyone should put in that extra effort to be nice to everyone around them beacuse you’ll never know when they have the chance to be nice to someone else.

  13. Te opposite of acceptance. It sure feels good to have your friends and family chose spending time with you rather than another. Why does this word instantly send us back to high school all over again. At times its nice to be alone and then other times this feels like the height of looserdome.

  14. i hate it. drowning in feelings as unacceptable to the modern world as a fanny pack from your mother’s glory days. a result of putting oneself out there combined with utter defeat. every middle schoolers’ nightmare.

  15. I am lonely.

    I rejected my loneliness as absurdity. It is nothing. It is a waste of time. Shrouded by a layer of hate, I live my life, ignoring the solitude that surrounds me like a black cloak. I ignore it. I reject the sadness that I feel and smile at the world. I smile at the world that rejected me.

  16. Rejection; the spice of life. Rejection makes the world go round. One door opens and another door closes, or so they say. Without rejection everyone would be happy smiling and basically annoying to the ninth degree.

  17. I said no. No means no. Did you think it meant yes? I’m not playing hard to get or whatever. I just don’t want to go to some movie on some Saturday night with you. But that’stoo owrdy, so I just said no. Rejection isn’t that bad. You’ll get over it.

  18. I could see it. They tried to hide it from me, but I could see it plainly. I wasn’t wanted here. I’d never been wanted here. It was time to go.

  19. Rejection is hard to accept yet so easy to give… especially when one’s fed up with a thing. Easy to toss the thing aside… sometimes. Depends on what it is.

  22. Ha. So much to say about this and I don’t know that any of it would really be all that unique or interesting. However, I will say that rejection is not the worst response one can be faced with; I would much prefer a blunt, honest rejection than being faded out as if the need to reject or accept was never on the table.

  23. This is all I would for from you. Once and for all a total rejection. No more yo-yo.

  24. The rejection was more than he could bear. Making him self reflect it only added to the anger that was pulsing through him. How dare she! How dare she make him look at himself and see that the fault was not on her but rather lies within himself.

  25. She slipped down the stairs and fell, hard. “Fuck me with an extension cord.” That was her last text message to her adulterer. Poor girl, no response was made. Rejection and death?

  26. It’s a painful gift that can launch you toward something unexpected and life-changing.

  27. something that i’ve had to deal with a few times in my life. its like someone is filling you life up with hopes of being wanted and then tipping it over… as if you were a glass with contents to be spilled leaving you empty inside and feeling as if you could never escape hollowness.

  28. She couldn’t fathom it. The taste of rejection was bitter in her mouth. But yet she found something sweet in its sourness. Yes. It was the closing of her perfect record of breaking hearts and onto a conquest worth her effort. The thought of it sent lightning through her senses.

  29. rejection is something no one likes to face. it jut makes u feel unwelcomed, unloved,and mistreeted.its harder when your recected by the ones you love and trust. but u will be accepted somewhere in life. rejection is something that either builds a person or tears them down. its a 2 way street and not everyone reacts in the same way. i my self dont like handling rejection but obviously that just shows how much u can trust and people and see the true them. som,metimes its best to reject people and move on. it may be a tuff decision but its best to do what you feel will give you a better life and situation. i know its hard to reject those you love and want in your life but for me those who i let in my life repetedly always hurt me. i forgive them but i wont let them back in my life or as close as we were.

  30. Rejection is one of the worst feelings in the world. There is nothing more heart-wrenching than being told that you aren’t good enough. Sometimes it is your fault – you didn’t do something correctly, or don’t have the enough time or skill. But sometimes it is of no fault of your own. And that hurts more than anything.

  31. Rejection is what high school was all about. At least it was for me. I was the loneliest kid in the school.

    by Ski on 12.21.2010
  32. I fear rejection because it is others’ refusal of my beliefs. I work so hard to please others, and to be rejected is my failure.

  33. Rejection, I think I make a big deal out of it more than I should. I am more afraid of rejection more than anything else. Maybe it has to do with self worth?

  34. feeling rejection is very uncomfortable. Nobody likes to feel this way or to receive rejection, but we must understand that not everyone has the same values and ideas.

  35. Rejection? Ha thats kind of funny. Because thats what I was thinking about just as I sat down. Its tuesday night, that means Kelly and I usually go for a walk and drink hot chocolate but shes at home and so. i have no one to go with. I thought about asking brock but he’ll probably say no, rejection.

  36. You are afraid of society’s rejection. You refuse to acknowledge your true self, and as a result you place your trust in our enemies. I had the courage to burn the barrier society built around me, but your flame was too weak. And so you stayed.

  37. rejection really sucks, but sometimes i think its nessissary. i mean if your never rejected how do you know how good it feels to be accepted? i don’t know man, i guess thats why sometimes i feel sorry for people who “have everything” because if you never fail/have everything how do you what its like to be truly happy?

  38. Really? From optimism to rejection? Alright.

    What shall we reject today?

    The defective unit on the assembly line?

    A bad presidential candidate?

    The marketing campaign to always get you to Always Buy Chesterfields?

    And ding goes the bell.
