    Back when I was skinny fat, I had my navel pierced. I had probably had it a year or more when I moved to Texas and it started to migrate and reject. Should have seen it as a sign and taken my @ss back home.:laugh: For months I was really, really ill b/c I had allergies for the first time in my life and kept winding up with sinus infections gone wrong. I think that was Texas trying to reject me.

    I had a dude reject me because he couldn't date a chubby chick because his friends would judge him.

    He hits me up on Facebook quite often after losing weight. :wink:

    I had a guy tell me once he couldn't see me anymore because I was too cartoonish. His loss, cartoons are awesome.

    you should whipped out a mallet and smacked him in the head thrice

    A job I wanted, wanted badly, and didn't land. Lost confidence in my abilities and second-guessed myself for quite awhile after that. In my vocation, you need supreme confidence in what you do to sell your ideas through.

    I made a fake woman out of dynamite instead, he instantly fell in love with her and when she exploded, steam came out of his ears.

    Met a guy for drinks at a restaurant. Did the going to the bathroom thing and never came back. After awhile I got "it", but I stayed and enjoyed my drinks and an appetizer. I really was glad for the both of us, although his rudeness stung.

    I'm too lovable to be rejected.

    0/10 would not date (now you have a story about being rejected)

    You can't do that....you're a part of the Navy....you take orders from us! :laugh:

    Oh geez...I know you didn't just do that.
    Oh yes you did.
    I'll help pick up the pieces afterwards.

    When I was dating my first husband (yes, I married him after this because I was an idiot), he showed up for a date and said he wasn't taking me out and instead had a date with another girl. But the icing on the cake was when he said "Maybe if I show you a picture of her you will understand why I picked her over you." Eventually he begged forgiveness and I took him back but he stayed a jerk so the marriage didn't last but I got three wonderful kids out of it.

    Mine was in 2010 shortly after my divorce. I asked him if he wanted to go out for a drink and he told me he doesn't date fat chicks. I ran into him at my bodybuilding competition last year and had the opportunity to return the favor of rejecting him.



    the very best of revenges

    She called the cops because I had planted video cameras in her apartment, and was finding out who she was dating and scaring them away. What a b.

    the moment my now ex (feels strange saying that) wouldn't let me kiss her, was the final nail in the coffin as they say :(

    Dated 3 months, things were great but something nagged in the back of my mind. I was crazy about him though and he kept telling me how I was "exactly what he needed".. yeah ok.

    About 3 months and 2 days into the thing, he cancels all of our upcoming plans, stops returning calls, and pretty much vanishes. Zero explanation. That stung a bit.

    A year and half later I'm running at the reservoir near my house and sure enough, bump into him on the path. He brushes past me, does a double take, doubles back and we awkwardly make small talk for a minute. We part and I'm scratching my head for a solid week.

    Two weeks later I get a very contrite apology card for "bailing on me" the way he did. Supposedly his most significant ex (who he had a ton of unfinished business with) came back in his life right around the time he met me and for those three months he was pretty much torturing himself because he liked me so much, but he couldn't fight his feelings for her. They had moved in together a block away from my place.

    I ran into him again, literally, a few weeks later, running the reservoir path. We talked for a minute. I told him he hurt my feelings pretty badly, but whatever, it was two years ago. He apologized again, we went our separate ways. I see them together pretty often. Heck sometimes we even run the same route. I realized a few weeks ago that we engage in an unspoken footrace each time we're running the same route. So far, I've beaten him every single time and dang, that feels great.

    Getting dumped and rejected isn't that bad... I got dumped because being a pilot isn't that cool... so I flew to the beach

    It may not be "that cool" but the view sure is nice :)

    Back in college I was working two jobs, and one of them was providing care for a man with autism who needed a lot of help with everything and had 24/7 care. My coworker was actually the client's cousin. He was a guy I'd gone to high school with but hadn't known then because he was a year older and quite shy.

    We worked long weekend shifts that overlapped by just a few minutes, and we would chat about our client and other things. I was single at the time and I thought this guy seemed very sweet, especially with his cousin/client, and it helped that he wasn't too bad on the eyes. I knew we had a few things in common outside of the job. So I got up the nerve to ask him out for coffee. He looked at me so weird and said, "No. I don't really like coffee." I'd been forward with guys before but usually had success, at least somewhat, so that totally threw me off and I was fairly mortified. I had the feeling (mostly in my head of course) that this guy was just totally disgusted by me, thought I was hideous and unacceptable as a potential date, and imagining that I harbored a serious lovestruck type of crush on him...I wished I could shout from the rooftops, "I don't even like you that much! I just thought MAYBE you would be interested in spending a little time together!" haha

    YEARS later...like 7-8 years later...I was at the local library and I noticed that he was working there. He came up to me in the aisle and said, "Hey! How are you?" and then started talking to me about his cousin who had recently died. I offered my condolences. Then he got kinda weird acting, and he told me that he remembered the coffee thing and he'd wondered for years if I was asking him out and he really blew it big time. I laughed and admitted that yeah, I was. He blushed so bad and commented that no one had asked him out, and he was not a coffee drinker back then. Then he said he knew I was married (by then) blah blah blah, and we both just laughed it all off. But for years if someone would have mentioned his name to me at all I would have felt embarrassed.

    I asked a guy to prom, he had graduated already. He said if I gave him a BJ he would go with me. Needless to say, I did not go to prom with that a**hole!
