Rejection and how you cope with it....

[Liar]

I actually wish I had more rejection in my collection of life experiences. That would mean that I actually tried doing things.

I've been prettty much a floater all my life, and have just chosen the parth of least resistance at every new term. So rejections, in relations, in professional life and other places, are quite few, because I have'nt really put myself in those situations. Never did walk up to theat girl in the bar, never did send in that script to the publisher, and so on...

The few time that I have been told to bugger off, It has actually made me a little proud, as in "Cool, I made enough impact on someone to annoy them."

rejection

I tend to end up in a classic rejection mode with men: The men who are attracted to me rarely get past one or two dates because I find little to no interest in them. The men I am seriously attracted to are not interested in me. Sigh.

A classic.

I always tend to make things worse, I'll say "whats wrong with you, are you STRAIGHT or something?" Then the beautiful lady says 'yes" and walks away.

Get out you dictionary (dick-tionary, a-la-vella), and look up 'finesse'.

It may be a strange concept to one so, 'exhuberant', but it might just work.

finesse
(1) Refinement and delicacy of performance, execution, or artisanship.
(2) Skillful, subtle handling of a situation; tactful, diplomatic maneuvering.
