I ended up getting rejected in middle school by somebody I had a huge crush on for years. It was going to be for prom & she said she was already going with somebody else. However, whenever me and my friends got there, the dude that she was going to go with ended up not being there; so when the music got slow I asked her to dance with me & she said yes! It felt like all the crying (I cried when I got home) I did the day before was really embarrassing lol. Ah to be young n dumb. Looking back my favorite part was hearing my friends cheer me on & being there for me whenever I was down.

[@janbaan4024]

It was my last semester in high school. There was a girl I really liked and even though I wasn't sure if she felt the same, I thought it was worth taking a shot. Keep in mind, I expected her to say no. After I asked her out, she said yes. As you can imagine, I was super happy. Her only condition is that we should hang out next week since her uncle was in town. Two days after I asked her out, she started to ignore me at school. Yes, you read that right, she randomly ignored me. Not only IRL, but also on Whatsapp (we did text each other for a bit one day after I asked her out). I thought it was super weird from her. So within a span of one week, I tried talking to her. But everytime I said hi, she walked the other way. I felt terrible. I honestly thought that I did or said something wrong. After a few weeks, I've realized that she probably didn't know how to reject someone and we haven't spoken to each other since that day.

[@Stamps600]

Do I really need to explain to a grown man why this happened? SHE TALKED TO HER FRIENDS AND THEY THOUGHT OF YOU AS GROSS. So instead of telling you she just ignored you...

Or they’ll feel like they have to say yes even if they really don’t want to

Honestly I don’t have a rejection story yet because every person I’ve asked out I’ve dated, which might sound awesome until its put into perspective that would be like 4 people because I would only ever ask a girl out if we where practically already in a relationship, just not officially. It just sounds like asking random people out that you think might make for a good partner is not worth it which this video proves to me more so than ever. Personally ig I just prefer to get to know people first.

And thirdly - The “guidance councillor” was out of line when they pushed for her to say she’ll think about it. If she said no - then she said no.
