Would you give someone who rejected you, a second chance? if he/she rejected you because of you looks, and then you suddenly had a makeover or you were chunky and you went through weight loos. would you take them back if they wanted you this times

Hi Jen14ed,well no I wouldn't give them another chance.Funny, I got a message last year from someone I went to school with when he saw a current picture of me.He said "wow ur hot,if i'd have known you's look like that I'd have dated you in school"! All I said back was hello.I thought "what nerve!"So no, his loss.

No I would never give a person who rejected me because of my looks a second chance.Ofcourse if the person rejected me because of my behaviour or some small misunderstandings that can be worked out but if I was rejected only because of looks then I don't wanna give that person a second chance..

If it was because of looks especially if they were the ones making Fun of me, there is NO WAY that I could want to be with them. Personally I have always felt looks really mean nothing and size means nothing unless you have a Great personality and such to match. I know that I have learned to never base a person just on looks as looks can be decieving and if a guy or gal is being this way then they are probably phoney in some ways as well.

Hi There! I would defenitely not give that person a second chance.That person is not worth any chances.Becuase its clear that the person doesn't like me for who iam and is only going by my looks.so i guess he can keep on dreaming\ Cheers!

Ok now you are going down my path. Yes, I have been known to give people second and even third chances. Some I felt were justified and others I have to question still to this day if they were the right choice or not. With regards to my current situation, I had begun dating this guy and had been involved with him for about 3 months when his former girlfriend came back into the picture stating that the baby she gave birth to 2 months before was his. He stated to me that there was only 1 time in which they didn't use protection and like I told him, that is all it takes. They had a paternity test and it came back positive that it was his. WOW! Surprise! He is from the south and states that he was raised to do the right thing which in his eyes was to give her a 2nd chance and try and make a family life with her and his daughter. He told me that he had to put us on hold. I lost it as he was/is the most wonderful man I have ever met. Well, he walked away from me for 1 whole week when he called and asked me if he could come over and talk. I told him that I didn't know what there was to talk about but if he wanted to that would be fine. He came across the street and was teary eyed and told me that he had made a mistake and should have never given her a 2nd chance because he knew that since it didn't work the first time they were together (a whole 6 weeks that is)that it wouldn't work this time. He asked me to give him another chance. I told him I needed to think about it. I gave it a few days and decided that I wanted another chance with him. Well, we have been together for a little less than 2 years now and have had many ups and downs but are still together. He made some VERY big mistakes in the relationship he had with this gal and some of them cost him BIG legally and financially. I think he has learned something from that experience but I guess I shouldn't say that for sure as only time will tell. Sorry for rambling on but the second chance topic really caught my attention.

if somebody rejected me because of my looks, i will never give that person a second chance. if that person can't handle me at my worst, then that person doesn't deserve me at my best.

no definitely not no way no how. if I wasnt good enough for that jerk then I am still not good enough as the me of' me is still the same. he could jolly well go jump in the laker'and pull the water over his head to a watery grave for all I would care.A jerk is still a jerk nomatter how much he might flatter'me he was only thinking of the outside appearance,not the me of me.

hmm... I don't think I would like to have any relationship with somebody who is very superficial. I would rather have people around me who like me for who and what i am and who have been there for me from the beginning when things aren't looking up. This are real people. Genuine friends will not ask you for anything else than your genuine friendship. You deserve someone better.
