"Too human", eh? Perhaps she meant you were too kind, or something?

Damn, that's a new one. Creativity, though.
Haha, I always did admire her creativity. If I think about it seriously, she probably meant, "You're too flawed." which was a fair observation at the time.
I'm usually not human enough. It has to do with the support for social and selective darwinism.

It's good to see that you still have that respect, though, which is crucial for a friendship, at the very least.

dunno. only happened twice to me. once was because I just finished nailing one of her friends (I had no clue they even knew each other) and the other time I never got an official reason on. I can only assume it was because she was a closet lesbian.

I've never been rejected, but I've been dumped once. We "weren't compatible"

Took me a whole of 15 seconds to get over it.

Means your not getting into her pants.

As for the second half of your question, I've never had problems with rejection since I am way to shy to ever ask in the first place. When it comes to women I'm gutless.
i can say the same =D

OT: it means shes dating some one else.

So I just got shot down something fierce by a girl. Not sure what caused it. The official reason was "I like you, but as a friend."
... What? What does that even mean?
It means, "I am going to rip your guts out and expect you to understand."

Actually the rejection I got from a girl was "You can have any girl you wanted." Ummmm....then why can't I have you? To this day I never got an answer.

I hate the friend thing. Why don't they just say what they mean.
It seems in their minds that by lying and giving hope for friendship it will hurt less, then it just ends up hurting more when you figure out they led you on. On topic, I wish that I had only heard the words that girl said to the OP. Instead, a girl and I dated and it got really serious, eventually resulting in us getting engaged. Unfortunately about a month later I got to hear the best phrase in the world, "I don't think I love you anymore". After that, well lets just say look at my first sentence in this post.

All you need is a smile and a brick.

Seriously though, rejection is like gaming, no matter how many times you get knocked back you have to try not to let it defeat you, and always come back having learned a thing or two.

It means you're a nice guy, and all that that entails. She's already figured you out. Deep down, women want their men to have some mystery to them; to keep them guessing. A lot of guys think showering a girl with compliments is the way to go, but it's not. That just shows the girl she can have you if she wants. She needs to think she has to work to get you. Just as a cat loses interest in a string if it's dropped in front of them, a woman will tend to lose interest in a guy who says "Here I am." Dance a bit just out of her reach. You'll get her interest, and she'll want to see if she can get you.

That's what I've read in "The Game" anyway. I haven't nailed that down myself, but I have plenty of experience to know showering them with compliments only lands you squarely in the "nice guy" category. :mad:

It's hard, but keep trying. The people who succeed the most in life are the ones who've also tried the most and failed the most. Most self-made millionaires have had a dozen jobs before they found the right thing for them. Someone once said "If you want to have more success in life, you need to double your failure rate."
Hahaha, o "The Game", there is a book that I found absurdly awesome and made me want to be a PUA.

well, my problem is usually getting up the courage to ask in the first place, so i've never been rejected simply because i've never really tried.

it sucks.

but the next time i meet a girl that isn't stupid, i will SO experience rejection haha :D

I have an uncanny ability to get stuck in the friend zone as soon as I meet a girl, so I rarely have this problem.
This, mostly. And other than that, I'm just usually ignored. I have had a girl break up with me after a day because I was "awkward" though. Damn I'm starting to see the bad parts of being tall.

For some reason I've been permanently labeled as "the nice guy" that's shy and can never be seen with a gf -.-.
So I never really bother to try.
Surprisingly I have been rejected >.>, weird thing is I didnt even try, just came up to me and said I had no chance for no reason.

So this has caused me to wonder: when have you other escapists ever experienced rejection, and more importantly: what was the 'official reason'?
come join the broken heart society man. There are plenty of us, guy and girl alike, who live there. Don't worry though, we all eventually leave. It just takes time.

I think my favorite line for being rejected was, "You're just too smart for me to keep a conversation up with you." She stroked my ego and shattered it all at the same time. Bravo to her.

I hate the whole thesis of this thread. Rejection by women isn't a big deal. It sucks a bit but it's hardly a life-altering event. If you get rejected by a lady, you are no worse off than you were before you decided to go for it.

Is it rejection if it's after a few dates, or is that a dumping? I'll consider it a rejection story, I guess.

Anyway, I took this girl out for coffee one time. She was average on looks, much like myself, but she had eyes that I found irresistable. We talked for quite a while, way past our estimated meeting time, and decided to meet up again. We dove a little bit past the superficial college bullshit (What's your major? Where are you from?) and started talking about far more interesting topics. When I dropped her off at her place, I asked if she wanted to have lunch the next day. She smiled and proceeded to tell me that "She really liked me, and would totally want to become involved with me" However, I saw the signs, and knew that a big obnoxious "but," was right around the corner. "But you seem like the kind of guy that knows everything you want already, and I have no clue what I want to do with my life. I'm clinging to the present, and you're already preparing for the future. I'm sorry." I still have no idea what that means. And no, I didn't bring up my life goals like "I want a house in the woodlands with three kids and a dog named Rufus", which is the first thing that a female friend of mine asked when I told her.

Let's see...favorite lines...."God doesn't want me to date anyone right now", "You're like a little brother to me"...

Yep, those are the two biggies!

First one happened because I actually told a girl on a date what was going through my mind without editing it...Big mistake! Girls don't want to hear about the random or weird chatter going through a metal heads brain on a date. :)

Second one, because I wasn't aggressive enough, I suspect, plus I showed how out of shape I was on our first date by losing to her in a bike race. So, a colossal wussy on two fronts.

I've experienced nothing BUT rejection, enough to know that they don't want to be your friend, they just want you to leave them the hell alone.
I know, and then they stop answering the phone, and so you go to their house, but they don't answer the door because they've moved to another country and had complete plastic surgery.
