Taking rejection well is, ironically, a very attractive trait for a man to have, amirite?

Yep. I've handled break ups well and multiple came crawling back. Light hearted humor shows your brain is not rely upset that they don't want you.

The way Sean Connery took the rejection from his audition for the role of James Bond is how he got the part. 'Kept his cool on his way back to his car. The producer was impressed.

I'm mostly ignored. So, rejection would require deliberate action on my part.

by toyidella 2 weeks ago

Rejection pretty much always requires deliberate action. It sort of implies the one being rejected is the one putting themselves out there. About the only real exception I can think of is when an individual that is "supposed" to be on the receiving end of those advances (generally women) are ignored. It could be argued that they're being rejected by everyone. Personally, I'd argue that being rejected in the passive role isn't quite the same as being rejected in the active role.

So yeah I am a very attractive man in that sense, but still not attractive enough to get into a relationship, but still I'll become attractive by handling the rejection well, but still I won't be attractive enough....

Just start advertising to potential dates how much you get rejected, problem solved

It's only rejection if it hurts your feelings.

"Sorry I'm just not that into you" "Ok,I understand" "Wait! Don't go"

by CommissionOne9122 2 weeks ago

Then you become successful and make them regret. Believe me, they do regret it if you're that much more successful than their choice

by Prestigious-Milk 2 weeks ago

I'm pretty sure that's only true if they actually liked you in the first place. If there was no interest they'd probably just be happy for you and maybe impressed but not much regret.

No it's not, I have taken a lot of rejections well, 33, still single, and still no woman's choice for a romantic partner. But I am their choice for friendships

It's funny because I think a lot of young men think being an ego maniac is what makes you successful and they end up following these fools like Andrew Tate. You can be confident and sure of yourself without being a weirdo, handling rejection like an adult is one of the traits on that path.

Make it clear you're a safe person to say "no" to and people become a lot more comfortable saying "yes".

It's possible, my job is extremely intense and we have a lot of pressure. It has definitely changed my personality in regards to communication style.

Sorry to hear that. It has happened to me too.

I got a friend who interacts with almost all woman he meets ( and in the most broad age range he had girlfriends 30 years younger and older) he totally doesn't care if he is rejected. He is now in his late 50's and has slept with at least 250 woman. I personally didn't count them but I have met dozens of his girlfriends. Even at the times he was living with the mothers of his children he cheated all the time. His system works but offcourse he can't keep a steady relationship longest I know has been 7 or 8 years to the mother of his second and third child.

Oh, I'm very good at taking rejection. One could say I have lots of experience in this field.

You won't be rejected if you don't seek it out.

by East_Environment 2 weeks ago

Even better you advertise your interested if they change their mind. I've attached a friend with the philosophy and he gets more tail than I do. But I'm married.

I just broke it off with my partner for the second time today. The first time was last week. He absolutely lost his mind and was screaming and crying for me to stay. I stayed…yesterday I couldn't do it anymore. He totally nuked me. Today he came to get his things and made me feel like the worst person in the world. Saying, I'm the one who's ending this, never forget it. He was willing to do anything to keep our relationship going. I am throwing away 3 years of our relationship. It's all my fault. Mind you…he's almost 40. The last words my ex partner that I was with for almost 7 years said to me…I still love you, kissed me goodbye and off I went. Now that was the hardest breakup of my life. I'll never forget him.

Ironically women don't take rejection well, and only become attracted after they reject you and you take it well.

by Anonymous 2 weeks ago

Not sure why it's ironic

by Schroederbridge 2 weeks ago

Ironic because being good at getting rejected actually means you'll find more people who won't reject you

by Anonymous 2 weeks ago

But it's also likely you've been rejected many times before. It's a coping skill. Not mutually exclusive.
