Being honest in answering this question, for me, it hurts more I feel like it should. Here's why, and I hope this explanation at least ballparks my justification.
If I pick you to pm or reach out to for a visit, chances are that I REALLY want to see you. I don't pick 10 girls and then throw a dart at the names on a board and go with that. My pre-selection process has already done that. The girls I want to see, I pretty already know who they are. It's just a matter of availability of time, funds, locality, and male urges.
An example, that I hope makes sense is, say for instance, I like Jules Jaguar. Fucking gorgeous. Sweet body. Seems like a great gal. I 'gotta' meet her one day. She's NOT at the top of my 'hierarchy' today. Why? She's five states away from me right now. Odds are unrealistic of meeting her in any immediate setting.
But, if I got plane tickets to Dallas by this weekend....oh, shit!! This is a great opportunity to see Jules!!!
Let me reach out to her to let her know I'm coming to town. She all of a sudden shoots up to the top of my list...where on Monday, she was probably ranked like, 32nd or something, because there was no conceivable chance I'd see her any time soon. But a magical appearance of a plane ticket changes that.
If I reached out to her and she showed no interest in seeing me, that would be a crushing blow.
My whole 'process' has come tumbling down and has warped around itself.
A silver lining in the equation is that there are other ladies in Dallas on my 'list', too. Once some sulking is done, I'd go down that list. Being number 3 or 4 or 5 on that list doesn't really mean anything, because to make the list is a great thing anyway. It's like the playoffs.
Lemme first say that this is no attempt sway Jules in any way. I'm just trying to make a point.
My point IS, if I'm pm'ing you for a visit, chances are I REALLY like you (in purely a hobby sense) and a lot of thought has gone into wanting to see you.
Yeah, I've been turned down before, and it sucks every time. You just try to walk it off best you can.
These ladies don't owe us anything. They don't HAVE to see us. You have to remind yourself of this if rejection starts to feel a little too personal.
Rejection hurts more when you feel like you're genuinely a good guy, and mean no harm to any of these ladies, as I do every time. You just want to have a good time with her, and feel good about yourself afterwards, and move on with life.
Sorry for the long post. Read it. It's good stuff....I think.
If you skimmed over it, go back and read it. I put a lot of though into it.
