As adults, common sense will tell us that not everyone is going to like us and there are other fish in the sea.

Sometimes our defense mechanism kicks in to tell us it doesn’t matter anyway, because we are better off without them.

But, most of us cannot honestly deny that there is a pinch if not a punch to our emotional gut when we first learn someone we like does not like us back.

What do you REALLY FEEL when it’s happens to you?

Usually a pain-filled, teary, mourning, not for the guy,
but for a world in which this can happen over and over again.

I am like the anti-stalker.
If someone does not like me, I can show them the door faster
than they can think of leaving.

Buh bye, thank you for saving me for someone who cares, is the
way I think of it.
Everyone deserves fealty.

depends,

if they do not want romantic involvement but still like me as a friend I am perhaps a little disappointed but glad to have a friend. I have had several boyfriends and one husband, and honestly they are a lot of work and no less trouble.

if they don't like me because they just don't, I do not feel hurt. I feel relieved to be free of someone who would be that arbitrary.

if it's a personality conflict I am fine to just keep it civil.

:thumbsup: agreed. I think I am not generous with second chances either (because I know that path too well)

but yes I'd rather make short work of it, if it is not going to work, also

if it is someone I have had soemthing ongoing with in hope of romance or been dating then I would be hurt also (I didn't mean to make it seem like I do not have feelings)

I think the arbitrary ones would hurt the worst. How can someone judge you based on no evidence whatever? Somehow that's worse than someone with a reason...no matter how insignificant. ohwell

This why going to the gun range is helpful with situations like this. Pull out the 9mm and just empty some ammo on a helpless target. Afterwards, tea time and knitting to simmer down. Oh yeah!

Well, if you mean somebody that never really led me on to think that they "liked" me in the first place I usually just go off them and wonder what it was that I liked about them. I start doubting that any feelings that I thought that I had for them were real because getting the brush off is just a massive turn off for me. I'm not into beating dead horses.
