because rejection does wonders for society
Rejection is part of life. When was it ever not part of life?
I remember in the 9th grade muttering every ounce of courage I had to go ask a girl to the school dance only to get turned down flat. Today, I don't even remember her name.
Life is rough. Sometimes it hurts. Grow up. Get over it.
I was relatively popular in high school, many friends in many different cliques. However, I was always shy with the girls. It wasn’t until my five year reunion that I found out that a lot the hot gals I thought were out of my league wanted me to ask them out. Lol, late bloomer I guess.
You just brought back a totally forgotten memory of my 9th grade Junior High dance.
I, too, was turned down by a girl so my best friend and I showed up at the dance without dates. The way the tables were set up we had several nice girls sitting at our table and neither my best friend or I missed a dance that night and it was the girls at our table that asked us. We all talked, laughed, and had a good time, probably better than if that one girl had accepted my invitation.
