These are my personal opinions. Always seek a professional when you're making choices about your mental health and well-being.

Never get rejected by someone that you wanted to date, someone that you were interested in.

I know I have. I know that it has happened to me. I've actually been in a

situation where I was with a girl for about a year and a half. And then we broke up and we

stayed friends and that was hard as hell. It was hard as hell to stay friends with somebody that I still

had feelings for, even though she just wanted to stay friends. I didn't want to hang out with her

without being more than just friends. And then time went on and I got past that and we no longer talk and life goes on and I just had to learn

that and I'm sure there are so many people listening now that have probably dealt with this lesson.

I actually got a message a while back from somebody who said I was married for quite a number

of years and when that marriage ended, I was married for quite a number of years. And when that marriage ended,

I met someone. I met someone online and we talked every day. And then we worked on a project

together and I ended up falling for her. And she was the very opposite of the person I was married to.

So I was very attracted to her in many ways.

She lifted me up. She gave me compliments and she just made me feel good about myself in general.

But I may have misread the situation. But my friends said I didn't misread it and my counselor

said I didn't misread it. But, you know, we never talked about like sex or anything like that.

But the long story short is that I revealed my feelings for this woman and I got rejected

pretty hard.

The person goes on to say, I kind of feel like there's more to her rejection than just

simply not liking me in that way. I'm pretty

confused by what happened. And now I'm sitting here with these feelings of rejection. I'm confused,

like I said, and I've been dealing with the divorce, and I just don't know how I got it wrong.
