Feel like crap after being rejected

I was rejected by my friend earlier, I was rejected in a kind way but feel like crap, feel like I'll always be single and sitting eating dominos on the sofa. All a little bridget Jones ;). I've already had my cry for the evening- does anyone have any stories of hope for the single one of the friend group? I am tired of dating...

Maybe your friend rejected you as they didn't want to loose you as a friend, good friends are hard to find. Dating is really hard and it can be hard not to look at others without envy (even though it might not be rosy). There are worse things than being single though. And you don't have to share your dominos!

Rejection is God’s protection. Possibly.

It hurts to be rejected. But you have only been rejected you are not a reject.

I know it’s tough but I encourage you to do good things for yourself. Everyone gets rejected and it really can be protection. Trust me.

It really, really hurts. Especially when it's someone you know well. Have a gentle weekend but try not to spend too much time alone.

I can honestly say I look back on guys who rejected me and am THANKFUL...but that takes time. Right now it is going to sting.

Christmas nights out can be a nice relaxed way to meet people....and if you go with your friends and you're the only single one see if your friends can help you get talking to people.
