REJECTION DIARY:
When
She Doesn't Want You
Dear
Harlan,
I feel so stupid for wanting a girl who so clearly doesn't want
me. I walk around having imaginary conversations with her. Why
is it so easy for some people to move on and have fun after a
break-up? Dating sucks so bad. It's like there's a rule that those
you like shall not like you, and vice versa. I try to be happy.
Sometimes I just force myself to smile and think positive things.
In
Love and Rejected
Dear
In Love,
It's time to have an imaginary conversation and dump the imaginary
girl. Recite the Eleventh Commandment of love and life to yourself:
Those who you like shall not always like you. As I mentioned during
Rejection Awareness Week, when you can't handle the Universal
Rejection Truth of dating and relationships, take a step back
and train for the sport of taking risks. The goal of training
is to get comfortable enough in your skin so that you can handle
all the women who won't return your affection on the path to finding
the ones who will. If you can't figure out what you need to do
to train, seek professional help. Stop imagining having fun and
actually start having it.
