    umm..never happened to me before!

    but i'd probably pig out/go shopping or move onto someone else!

    Forget about them, find someelse to lust after.

    Otherwise, vodka, chocolate and shopping.

    Usually do almost anything else to take my mind off them.

    Yup.

    Well, when it's just a laugh or getting custard pied off a girl in a club then it's fine.

    When it's a feelings thing it's always this - cry, Titanic, Lion King, cry, coco pops, vodka, denial, I'llneverfallinloveagain, cry, Westlife, Pot Noodle, rebound shag, phone in sick at work, cry, Hugh Grant films, sickness.

    Once you try and cry about it and it turns into more of a weep then you know it's sorted :thumb:

    ive never actively seeked anyone out in order to get rejected, but when i feel rejected i tend to wallow in my own self pity.

    it's not a serious thing or owt just i'm not really used to asking men out, and coz i don't ,i'm not used to being rejected - thus feel a bit bruised and sulky :impissed:

    Well, you had been in a relationship for nearly five years until last summer. You're just out of practice. :p

    Well, when I feel rejected I....

    Put my best (sexiest/funnest) going out clothes on, spend ages doing my hair and make-up while drinking wine and listening to music then go out with my best mates and dance around having the most fun ever. I would usually flirt alot too and all of the above would be multiplied by 7 if the guy in question was going to be out in town and it was likely I'd bump into him. :thumb:

    :lol: Way to kick a girl when she's down.

    I think Haagen Dazs was invented for such occasions.

    Lol



    You know what I meant, you're just being difficult! :razz:

    Actually you're not far wrong but I meant it would take me longer to pick out clothes and do my hair! :D

    just mope around + get depressed... usually end up going out and getting very drunk :D
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I suppose when you think about it getting drunk aint that great an idea when your feeling proper bad about stuff, because alcohol makes you feel worse about it.

    Then again if it's something small-ish then going out and having a wicked night is a good thing, you just don't wanna be one of these lassies bitzed out of her brains, sitting on the pavement at 3am crying her eyes out because some bloke doesn't fancy her.

    Put a positive spin on it: I always think it's better to ask and get rejected than to never ask at all.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I always end up crying... (mainly because after rejection, follows an arguement)

    At the same time?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Fuck all. If she says no then it was never meant to be.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    mope for a bit, and then try to forget about it.
    you cant miss what you didnt have.

    Obviously, I don't mix the two together!

    I can't say I do it after I've been turned down though, only after being dumped or something. I don't tend to run after guys. I let them do all the running :D The thought of even being rejected scares me.
