What are we rejecting here? Dating? Friendship? My cat not coming when I call his name every time? You need to be more clear..

From a coward's point of view, it hurts more to think how many relationships have slipped out rather than being rejected because you didn't dare to confess in the past.

In highschool there was this adorable exchange student from Japan, Miki from Hokkaido. I was smitten with her but didn't dare make any moves. However I was also developing an interest in pretty much anything from Japan, so I really really wanted to learn a bit of the language. In music class, which was the only class we shared, I'd try to strike a conversation and ask her a few things. She seemed positively impressed about my knowledge of Japan, so I took it as a sign to plan my move. After about a week or so I'd noticed she'd started to hang with two other girls, and they'd walk with her out of the school as well. Fantastic for my antisocial ass. So - I decided to write a letter, wherein I as politely as possible asked if she'd hang out after school and teach me a few sentences. I handed it to her after a class, when I overheard her class was in the room next to the one I'd just had a class in. I distinctly remember how she shyly smiled and accepted the letter. I never heard back from her after that, and I couldn't get myself to even ask her about it afterwards. Kinda wish I'd gathered the idea and courage to ask her out proper, I suspect it'd have been a somewhat smooth maneuver - albeit quirky and dorky. Oh well. That's all I got c:

Matched with a guy over a month ago. He never initiated a conversation...and I have social anxiety so neither did I. After 3 days of overthinking and stressing out on how to approach him, I finally decided to text him. I texted him a "Hi, Sorry I never initiated a conversation it's because I have social anxiety. Anyways I think you are cute. 😁" And he unmatched me. Never again πŸ₯²

Faced so many rejections by now that I don't even know what embarrassment means anymore . Look at all rejections as lessons . For instance if I didn't failed that exam that time/ would have gotten that job or would have expressed my feelings things would have been different but I wouldn't have learned or wouldn't have become what I am now. So every rejection brings new opportunities. Best thing is to never giving up. πŸ€·πŸ€— (edited)

Oh man lmao I got you. After a really fun date that went from coffee, to food, then ended at barcade, I thought the vibes were immaculate. So when I’m walking the girl back home she puts on lip gloss(sign? No no she might just need it) then had a mint (surly a sign? Nah I might be over thinking it), THEN she grabs my arm, says she had a great time, and wants to go out again. I know DAMN WELL that’s a sign right??? So I’m like green means go, and go in for a goodbye kiss, and she ABSOLUTELY SWERVES me, and says she thought the vibe was more platonic than romantic; which is totally fine btw. But let me tell you, I made a joke to break that tension, but inside!!! Maaaaaan that embarrassment still hits me time to time

I'm not sure why anyone would be inclined to answer this question in an open forum honestly if it was actually really bad. My most embarrassing rejection is society. It's mutual.

The last one is always the worse one because I forget about the ones before. The most embarrassing ones are the ones when I play myself trying too hard.

Romantically, a guy kept throwing these hints at me. Initially I wasn't interested but I got interested and asked him for his number. He said I can have it but don't take it because I'm attracted to him. WTF?! (edited)

πŸ˜… most embarrassing n heart breaking moment was when a person cut our vacation short, because on the first night i apparently snore too loud and he couldn't sleep. He went home alone the following day and i stayed for the full vacation. Couple of chats afterwards then he's gone πŸ˜…

Its not a rejection but its embarassing, lol. So one of my batchmates was coming to the city and she said we'd be going for a date (nothing physical, we used to go for such dates when in college). So I was really excited about this and when we were supposed to meet she went out with someone else πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and she completely forgot she had to meet me πŸ˜‚

I don't really consider them to be embarrassing to me. But ghosting culture is an embarrassment to the human race as a whole. It is childish behavior, and cowardly.
