like i said, its not so much rejection that hurts, its the way that it happens that has the biggest effect, what pains me or hurts me the most, is if i make a woman feel uncomfortable, get perceived as weird or creepy or violate boundaries, that hurts and is embarassing, makes me feel stupid. But i wonder if i brought up valid quotes as mentioned by other mens dating/seduction coaches.
