The truth about rejection: how to handle getting turned down

Because the universe lives closed, we are all going to experience far more rejection than acceptance across our lifespans. So the sooner we can disabuse ourselves of certain illusions concerning rejection, the better. In this episode, I discuss these illusions, which I call the three Ps, namely: rejection is painful, personal, and permanent. The goal is to eventually see rejection as a form of feedback that may contain information on how to move closer to our objectives.

    I have somehow managed to understand myself over the past several months by incorporating meditation to my daily routine. It has helped me become more self-aware. Rejection doesn't phase me anymore. Thank you for this enlightening video Dr Teroban. I have understood that taking information from my surroundings helps better cope with my neurotic and intrusive thoughts. I just want to move on from negative and traumatic experiences which no longer need to have an effect on my mental wellbeing.

I also noticed that after experiencing such a very painful rejection, you start to care less about other rejections. This was my experience, it might differ from one person to another, but ultimately, rejection helps us to mature.

    This doesn't really work if you're getting rejected by a coworker or an acquaintance whom you've known long enough for them to make more than a cursory judgment about you. Also, repeated rejections in and of itself do a number on your psyche. You can end up feeling completely defeated. Or you can end up settling and feeling resentful at your circumstances.

    On the contrary, getting rejected by someone you know is in fact better. The feedback they give you is genuine and accurate. Notice I didn’t say less painful. Also, getting rejected repeatedly means you’re either in the wrong environment or you’re in the right environment and something about you needs to change. He never said this process was easy, but if you look at it as information gathering, it will be easier absorb and learn from.

    Nobody said that it wouldn't similar how you CHOOSE to take it personal and be hurt by it, you can CHOOSE to use that information to get closer to the eventuality of a YES. Myron Gaines said it best, women are the only thing in life that the more you put into nets you negative returns. Tye more effort you put into a girl that never liked you is a fruitless endeavor. You can not negotiate genuine burning desire/attraction. You are either presented as attractive to women when you meet them or not. Women just are, men have to become that is why in female psyche it is so hard to get them attracted to you sexually if you are already not sexy to them. Why do you think women keep comparing themselves to other girls and have defeatist mentalities regarding beauty. Because they believe they have a set attraction they can not work on. Rhis is absolutely not true but is why the makeup industry will never go bankrupt. My suggestion is to use this piece of information from Psychhacks and use it on different girls. Stop trying to convince a classmate or coworker of your value. Demonstrate do not explicate. You do not have to convince anyone after you already demonstrate. Do you think women have to tell you they are pretty. No. They just show you with their looks. No more negotiating with women.

    I am completely unconvinced on the first two P's. If Bob asks out Alice, and Alice says no, who is she rejecting? She is rejecting Bob. The only way you could convincingly argue that it is not a personal rejection of Bob is if Alice would say no to anyone that asked. As for painful, the more you want the other person to say yes, the more painful it will be if they say no. Lack of pain indicates a lack of desire. You are correct that we will hear no a lot more than yes and we need to be prepared for it, but most people aren't stoic enough to ignore any rejection.

    When a woman rejects you, just acknowledge you're not what she's looking for, for whatever reason. It's not personal. It's not that she doesn't like you. She just has a mental list of her "must haves" and your attributes are different. Not inferior, just different. No big deal. Move on. There will be someone else who will be much more open to being with you. Don't push on a string.

    Hi there- I really like yer channel, format, content, etc. brief, direct, informative and valuable, relatable topics that are interesting and useful. It’s also inspired me to modify my approach to podcasting in a like capacity. Rejection can be a valuable teacher. My most significant growth and change have come on the heels of rejection. While painful, most rejection is a trigger for some deeper problem, unmet need, etc, hence I think It’s important to spend meaningful time and energy investigating the deeper underlying issues that cause or trigger the reaction in order to ‘heal’. That’s been my experience. IMHO - Trauma lives in the body, and doesn’t ever truly go away until we identify it, face it and work through it. Thank you for such worthwhile content. You are making a difference. Andrew

    I'm 48 years old, never in a relationship. Rejection does something with you over time. I don't look ugly, I have a well paid job, I'm funny and intelligent, and I still get rejected over and over again. I have self confidence, I have a positive attitude, but this total lack of success in this regard gets to me. When I have one of my very few dates, and it didn't work out, that's fine, I can deal with this. But when I get no response when writing to someone on a dating site, when I try to come up with something personal or funny or whatever, and I don't even get a "no thanks", and this happens almost always, that wears me down. And one thing it does is that I can't take compliments about my looks or personality anymore, unconsciously I don't believe the other person, this part of me is just scar tissue, and it is because of rejection. If someone just assumes I'm in a relationship, and e.g. asks if I have kids, that hurts more than it should, and it is because of rejection.

    Reading these comments worries me a little. I am on this video obviously because I am struggling with the same thing. I am turning 27 in a few months, I’ve been a successful real estate agent for the past 2 years and closing on my first investment property next month. So I know I’m financially better than my peers. I still struggle with women. I’ve never been able to get the 10/10. I’ve DM’d maybe a thousand woman of all different types and 80% of them don’t even read the message. Rejection in business isn’t nearly as bad as in dating. I’m a romantic at heart and don’t want to play “the numbers” like I do in business. It’s taking a real toll on me and making me angry and resentful. I have been ignored by single mothers that weren’t that pretty! They should see me, a single, hard working, self employed young man with no children, a job, a car and no criminal history as a catch, yet they leave me hanging. Like wtf is going on. Unfortunately I don’t believe a lot of this message he shares. To me it seems like coping mechanisms to deal with a shitty reality. I have felt with so much rejection it has made me more insecure. Like you mentioned, I don’t even believe comments because of scars from all the failed attempts of the past.

    @@HardWorkPays0ff Maybe I'm the worst one to give you advise, but this is the advise I'd give my younger self: I think the chances using online dating are really low, rather try to meet women on activities you like for yourself (I know, it's still difficult). Looks matter, attitude matters, over-confidence can be a problem as well. Nobody is entitled to find a relationship, don't act this way. Get you friends to assess you, there might be something off with you, something that makes people feel uneasy. I looked into attachment styles, and yes, there are massive problems that I ignored for decades. If you are overly self-reliant, if you are the type of friend that never initiates something and finds it really hard to keep contact, if you stay always cool in emergencies, if you don't know how to console someone other than with offering solutions, that might be signs of a dismissive avoidant like me. Don't wait, it doesn't get better, you lose half of your life by being a stranger to yourself. I hope this helps. Good luck!

    Sometimes they don't say "no," they say some vague, open-ended, middle ground response like "Yeah okay let's go out, but I want to take it slow and be friends first" and then expect you to make a move on the first "non-date", after which they reject you for not doing so, even though you were under the assumption that she wanted to get to know each other first. Women are stupid lol. Either you're into me and you wanna do this, or you're not and you don't. I made my intentions clear by asking you out - your job is to agree or reject. Either way, I've learned that if it isn't a "YES!" then it's a no and to move on.

    Could it be that it's not women being "stupid" but men being "autistic?" Relationships don't start out a binary. Yes, no. Some people need time to get to know each other. It's not an "yes, I am into you 'cause I saw you yesterday and you seem a'right, let's do this." She might not be fully attracted to you physically at first, but getting to know you might reveal interNAL aspects she cares a lot about. If it's a quick decision, it is doomed.

    @roses6564 the point is as a man if I ask somebody out and they don't say yes, then I'm going to assume it's a no and walk I'm asking for a date here, not your hand in marriage and for you to pop out a litter of babies for me I'm seeing all kinds of videos of women complaining that men don't initiate and men don't approach them and ask them out anymore. It's because women play games nowadays

    @@Malumbrus Everyone plays games, at least at first. Three tips for best practices: 1. Depart from the premise everyone is self-interested first. 2. Apply empathy. 3. Do not expect the other to place your interests first (why do they waste my time?) If it's a strategy to maximize success, they will. Better your time, than their life. Remember: they don't love you (yet). Contrary to popular belief, # 2 is not being fee-fee-driven and "mushy like a woman." It is a very lucid, rational process where you place yourself in the other person's shoes trying to realize why they do what they do, how they are likely to see things, what you can expect from them, and the difference between what they say they want vs what they actually need or are likely to get. It doesn't mean sympathy and emoting with them. It's understanding the principles that animate the other party while suspending your own ego and judgements. So if you're just talking about a mere date (which wasn't clear previously), then, sure, I can understand your irritation. Thing is she might be hedging her bets, trying to see what her options are. Because you might not be her ideal no 1 choice on face value, so she's checking other options too. Men do the same. You could argue that a woman who can't even commit to a first date is probably not a good idea, but check her motivations and other character traits. Give benefit of the doubt until you see continued hesitation, then move on. My point is women have the right to hesitate and I think they don't hesitate enough. With marriage, they must make the most monumental decision of their life under serious pressures: 1. Narrow window of fertility. 2 Relationship-derived fulfillment ("true love", romantic match) is more important to them than it is for men. 3. They ARE, naturally, more selective than men. Depending on your own SMV, you can only accept women who give you an unequivocal Yes bc they are mesmerized with you...all the way to being patient enough bc you might not be the first choice of many women. People settle ALL. THE . DARN. TIME. We all ideally want to be our adored's first choice but the reality is most people settle at some level because a potential adored is likely to be already taken. Everyone else settles, more or less. It's a game of musical chairs.

    Rejection is multifactoral. People who choose others intuitively not logicaly, as I do, tend to think, that this happens to others too, so it is personal. Of course sometimes it is not permanent, so I don't give up easily. But sometimes we are just very simple and superficial, like how I chost to listen to your videos beside the titles of course, that raised my intrest. I thought: "Let me see what this man with such beautiful eyes can tell me". Sorry.

    All because a Polyamorus Cumdumpster didn't feel the need to mention she was a permanent side slut. Wasted 6years of my life so I will not allow anyone else in my life. Plus learning not to help others is a great way to save 10's of 1000's of dollars regardless of how important a dream business is to Her. INFJ-T Indigo Sigma women can die alone now that I'm in my 40's and straight trash is all that's left to select from. And no I will not " Make it to easy " to get used abused betrayed and abandoned. Investment return is $0. That shit is not going to happen again so Brutally Rejected is all women are going to receive if they express any interest in me. I have nothing to offer anyone so I will now begin to prove exactly what happens when a good men gets fucked over way too many times because women's character values are shit. Enjoy your journey because I will choose solitude and celibate until my final moment alive.

    Getting rejected sucks! It makes one feel insecure and even unattractive. I wanted so bad to hook up with this Israeli man who was due to return to Israel. I heard that he had BDE, talk about a Greek God he was gorgeous,but he turned me down. To be fair he's married, but I heard he gets around. Lol Before anyone hates on me let me be clear, I was not looking to break up his family home. Just enjoy him! 😉
