GIRL MUSTERED COURAGE TO ASK GUY OUT, BUT HE LAUGHED AT HER & SAID “SORRY NO”

I asked a guy out for the first time yesterday and he rejected me

I keep seeing that apparently women are now making the first move like they are asking men out on dates or being more assertive like paying for dates and stuff.

I was always scared to do this. But I decided to give it a try espc since I hear men would love to be approached since they don’t get much female attention

I asked out this cute guy from my work. I see him a lot outside my work building during breaks and I’ve spoke to him a couple times. I asked him on a date and he looked at me and laughed and said “sorry no” and he walked away from me

I spent my break crying in my car

I AM NEVER DOING THIS AGAIN !

1. This is what it is to ask someone out and get harshly rejected, regardless of gender.
2. Happens to most people many times before finding the right person. Gotta get in and dust yourself off, then move on.
3. This was just one guy. Don’t let it make you unwilling to put yourself out there. Rejection stings, but most folks get rejected a bunch before finding the right person. You now know he was not the one, so you won’t waste any more time pining for him.
4. Bi woman here….every man, including my finance, I’ve approached first. Sometimes I got shot down and sometimes it worked. Yeah it hurts the ego to be “rejected” but I’m almost certain you’ve probably rejected people as well.
5. Oh man that sucks. I’m sorry. Be careful about dating people you work with, though. It’s not worth it usually
6. You don’t hit every shot you take, that doesn’t mean stop shooting. Just work on your game.
7. It’s how you bounce back from rejection that will be the making of you. Pick yourself up, build on your confidence, understand rejection is a shitty part of life and next time ask them why, if they’re going to be rude, make them awkward. No wait sorry, that’s petty me speaking, don’t ask why, just hold your head high and know your worth.
