Reward, accept, and move on (build tolderance). Reward myself for trying. I keep in mind, if nothing is done, what if scenarios will play for the rest of my life. Accept it - No use crying over spilled milk. Move on (build tolerance)- There’s no way around rejection. Rejection is one of those things that will get worse, before it gets better. The more rejection I’ve handled, the better I’ve gotten at managing it. Source: During my early stages of my career as a noob, gotten rejected hundreds of times. Kept getting better until someone gave me a chance. Same with dating. Got rejected many times, got accepted in others. Keep trying. It’s a hit or miss It’s part of life. If the opportunity is never ceized because fear rules over, fear will hold you bound like a bird in a cage for the rest of your life. (edited)

Just wanna add these here⬇️ Understand that not every connection is going to lead to romance. Respect their choices and preferences. And more often than not, you probably didn’t mess up the right thing. You can’t say the wrong thing to your right person.

Accept it, and move on. If I'm feeling frisky I'll take it a step further and be grateful for it 🙌😆. If someone rejects you it saves you both time and energy.

Would move on, I guess, but not enough real life experience to properly speak on it 😬

I get a bit depressed, and a lot of that stems from feeling like I'm just a floater. I don't quite belong to any group/click. I'd rather be told that someone isn't interested in me romantically or as a friend than them ghosting me completely. I want the closure... but it still hurts

I try to remind myself that it's not a reflection of my worth. I focus on learning from the experience, staying positive, and using it as motivation to keep pushing forward.

I used to get sad, but it's been so long since I asked someone out. These days I would just accept it and move on. Life is too short to worry about things that are out of my control, and my priorities are different. If my affections are accepted, great. If not, that's ok too.🤷‍♀️

Let's start with feelings: If you get rejected, acknowledge it to yourself. Don't try to brush off the hurt or pretend it's not painful. Instead of thinking "I shouldn't feel this way," think about how normal it is to feel like you do, given your situation. Notice how intense your feelings are.

I don't handle it well internally, in person, but I keep it cool and respectful on the outside. It feels terrible but I accept the feeling and tell myself it's okay. Just like I have my preferences, they do too. It doesn't detract from my awesomeness in any way.

I handle rejection as a life lesson. When a person or situation rejects me, I might feel sad at first. However, as I assess the situation, I see it as a lesson, trusting that God is guiding me towards a better opportunity in life.

Just dont get rejected, lol. But seriously, rejection happens in many ways. I feel like people forget that. As a person with adhd you feel like youre getting rejected all the time by everyone. People you like but also friends and family. Not just romantically can you be rejected. It hurts but its a part of life and i dont feel like i 'deal with it' as much as i just accept and move on.

1. Determine why the particular rejection hurts. If my reaction is a bit extreme, then it means the issue is not just on the rejection. 2. Allow myself to be sad about it. 3. Restate to myself that rejection isn't a reflection of me as a whole. I can either change my situation or change parts of myself. 4. Move past it. I don't do everything every time I get rejected. But it's helpful when I feel extremely negative towards it.
