Well me? I'm really afraid of it. I don't want the feeling to be rejected in work, in school or rejected by other people. But i'm sure God has a plan to us why we sometimes get rejection. Are you scared of it?

A life lived in fear is a hell. To get rid of afraid she must fight with ourselves to be strong and overcome our fears, as long as you feel afraid you can never be happy and life will become hell. Afraid, fear is that first feeling you fight against a life of love, he has many forms and acknowledge all feelings, all evil and all negative feelings come from fear and this fear will make life hell.

Yes I am afraid to be rejected. It happens to me long time ago. I admit I had experienced it several times. I know how it is disappointed and hurts to fall down from rejected. But you know what, being rejected does not mean you are the worse person. The only problem why you are being rejected because you don't realized your weaknesses. If it happens to you, then take time to look at the mirror and observe what do you need to improve for yourself. I agree with you GOD has a plan to us to learn from our experiences and change ourselves to new level better than before...

Acceptance is always need based. You scratch my back and I will scratch yours and this attitude is here to stay. Whatever be a situation the one who accepts should get something out of it. So before getting frustrated on needs to make an analysis of why one rejects another.

Yep. i dont like the thought of being told no, but in the business im in (acting) i have to accept it and for really vain reasons. Like your not the body we are looking for, that happened recently, but i just had to move on, nothing i can do about it, this is the way i am i cant change it to fit your needs in the appropriate amount of time, and not sure i want to do that for you. lol. But ya rejection hurts but it happpens a lot, but so does a lot of acceptance and then heres the hard part sometimes YOU need to say no to them. I am very scared of being rejected by a certain guy, but even thats okay, God has a plan. When one door closes another one opens :D

Rejection is part of life in many ways. Rejection from friends to relationships to job applications, etc. I used to have fears being rejected. So, if I think a friend avoids me, then I know they're not true friends and I don't need them. If I get rejected over job applications, these things make me lose my confidence for future applications. Then one day, I just tell myself that it's just a part of life and I shouldn't let these things break my confidence. I guess, it's better to just be brave and feel more confident with ourselves.

I believe everyone is afraid of getting rejected from someone. I also believe overcoming the rejection and emotional pain is important. No one wants to be rejected, no one wants to be hated, but sometimes it's a part of life.

I guess no one would ever want to be rejected. I think it's not a nice feeling. It is very degrading on our part. But we can't please everybody. Sometimes what is best for us would be least for others. So I guess it's better if we are always open and ready for criticisms. There will always be people who want to downgrade or reject us no matter how hard we try to do our best. Just let them be. Yes sometimes God allows it for us to become humble. But don't stop right there. Don't let the people who reject you or your work to make you a bitter person. Keep moving and accept it as a challenge. God is good all the time. I know He will never leave you wounded alone. He will carry you!
