look at what transpired between the two of you. Did you bring negativity into the relationship? Was the other person a loser to begin with and you ignored it? Maybe you were an ideal partner and they simply didn't have what it takes to value a wonderful person. Rejection is not always a reflection of you, personally. It may be the ignorance of another person who failed to see your value.

* Build yourself up in a way that you never doubt your value, a way that being rejected will not alter what you think and feel about yourself. Don't just occupy your time, but learn to LIVE. Involve yourself in hobbies you enjoy. Surround yourself with positive people who appreciate the person you are. Help others. Offering of ourselves causes a sense of well-being. Live life with purpose and embrace your uniqueness.

Rejection hurts, no matter if it's from something seemingly small or more significant. But, the way we deal with rejection makes a big difference in whether we allow it to define us or if we use it to learn from and move on to better things.

If you feel rejection on a regular basis, this may be a sign you have unresolved issues to deal with. It may seem the world around is constantly finding fault with you, when the reality is, they aren't. In order to be emotionally healthy and have healthy relationships, these issues need to be addressed. You can allow rejection to stop you in your tracks or kick the fire out of it and move onward.
