Don't Take It Personal...????
Posted: 09-10-04 13:48pm

Has anybody ever experienced this?

You meet somebody in person for the first time and you're attracted to them. You initiate conversation, you ask for some means of opening communication with them (phone number, e-mail address, whatever), but they nicely turn you down.

Or...

You meet someone and you get to know them. You're attracted to them physically and you discover you're attracted to their personality too. You're both not involved and are open to dating. You ask the person out on a date, and they say 'no'.

Does the rejection still hurt you? Do you find yourself being told "don't take it personally," but that just doesn't feel like a resolve you can accept, because in your mind, if the person was attracted to you, you would have been successful?

Just venting...

Unfortunatley I believe that it comes down to whether your a guy or a girl , both sexes ahve very different reasoning ..If its a girl who turns you down, then I definatley wouldnt take it personally, aswomen we are constantly "hit on" all the time so were used to having a wall up to protect us ...You wouldnt belive what some guys say to get a girl in bed, so weve come to expect or belive that most not all but most guys only want one thing from us when they try to ask us out..So if a girl says no shes really just saving herself from the drama.....

As for a guy regecting someone...As I quote "sex and the city"
...."he's just not that into you"...

Yeah i'm going through something sorta similar.The guy that i'm attracted to is attracted to me too. But he won't go out with me. He wants to be friends with benefits. Which we are but it's not a big relationship.Were not even doing anything really but when I ask him why he doesn't want to go out or if he really likes me. He says he does but theres something or someone holding him back. I'm fiquring it's someone. Some times it feels like were dating but were not. It's a very confusing situation and sometimes it even hurts.
