    i think the harder part of rejection is feeling that it was mutual love for a long time untill you realise you were completely wrong and losing trust in your own judgements..

      @einsteinscat2124 7 лет назад +186

      LIDYAEIL i completely agree, when you spend years in a person loved them unconditionally and then they decide to just leave and built a family with someone else. It makes at least me feel like an idiot. Especially after you were really close with that person...that pain is more than plain rejection

    Just because someone rejects us doesn't mean we have to reject ourselves…it doesn't mean we're not lovable or worthy. Maybe that was the wrong person for you or the wrong job for you. Rejection doesn't have to defeat us, it can actually help us become more resilient, build up thicker skin and allows us to persevere. Honestly, we all fear rejection because we are human, & it is a very human condition. But, we also have the power to rise above it and become stronger because of it.

    View rejection as a tool that reveals incompatibility as opposed to a measurement of unworthiness or inadequacy - by allowing people to be a measurement of your worthiness you’re essentially giving them the power to decide and judge who you are. Take them off the pedestal and bring them down to the human level.

    Rejection is a brutally honest way to accept, "Hey, we're just not compatible enough."
    Rejection is a precious gift you may receive to allow you to refine your character (staying confident, remaining humble, gaining motivation, becoming even more postive, etc.) while moving on to 'casually' find somebody who is a better fit for all that you are.

    Yesterday I was 25 and today I am 74 and I don't know what happened to those years in between. My husband rejected me after 16 years of marriage. He went out and got married again right away, never looking back at me or caring. I spent all these years not knowing how to handle the rejection. I'm alone, me my dogs and cats. I don't want girl friends I want a companion to enjoy doing things with, a hug, a kiss and maybe making love. You make sense to me and I watch your videos again and again until the understanding you are giving me sinks in. I wish I would have had your videos years ago so I would have begun to live the life I should have had. I just broke up with a man and your videos are helping me now.

    Rejection really hurts, no question about it. I was just broken up with recently, so I'm still grieving. But I made the decision to accept rejection as part of the dating experience. I'm willing to go through the hurt, to hopefully find the person(s) who will value me. I know that the pain won't last forever. It also helps to know that others are going through the same, and that the shared experience gives us the opportunity to support each other.

    This is brilliant! Thanks!
    (Trying to write a summary here)
    1. Rejection is Never personal to the person being rejected. It’s always personal to the person initiating the rejection gesture as this is not what she/he wants in his life (or at least she/he believes so at the moment - do we always know wisely what we want all the time... haha). If he says no to you, free him to chase whatever dream he wants.
    2. Don’t be narcissistic assuming you are perfect and will always be liked to the person you like. There are always compatibility issues. The goal HAS to be finding the kind who you like a lot and Also likes you a lot... preferably even more.
    3. Who you like now - might not look that great in your eye after 10 years. The fact he rejects you is a relief and favour for you, in consideration of your possible regret in a decade. Think this way... cheer up, go for a walk and move on. Life should be too busy for you to waste your mind on someone that is no longer willing to invest in your co-future. Dwelling your thoughts on such a person is no longer productive in any way.
    There is an old saying in Chinese: the new one will not arrive unless the old one is gone! Kick this terrible experience off your mind and focus on how much potential you have in the future. ;)

    Rejection is a redirection for something better. We have to remember and accept that we will get rejected throughout our lives and it may be a blessing in disguise if we get rejected sometimes. And I agree with Matthew, when we have limited time left, who cares about rejection? I rather get rejected, then get over it than to live in regret. This is helpful!

      Chandara Chuon Same here... I was supposed to see someone yesterday, it would have been our 2nd date. He flaked out last minute. It’s weird, because he was the one staying persistent and wanting to meet up. I’m definitely done with that person. Even though I wasn’t impressed with him at all, rejection is never pleasant. No matter from whom.

  • @malabuha

    there was one guy i really liked for a longer time. i decided to end that obsession by aproaching him and openly confess my feelings. he accepted the date and after i had told him how things are with me he gave me back (as directly) a huge no. that moment changed me forever. i thanked him and walked away with a big smile on my face. i was finally able to move on. but ever since he's been looking at me differently. today i dont mind what ever he thinks of me...
    you see, even if you make a fool of yourself is a price worth paying for finding deeper confidence. one which other opinions and beliefs cant interfere with. you dont mind what anyone thinks of you and out of respect (both for yourself and them) you dont try to prove them wrong. they think you're easy or a fool... ok... they do have the right to think what they need and as long as you carry that inner sense of respect for yourself and others, you are just fine with rejections

Even though deep down I knew he didn't love me the way I did, I had to tell him cause I really wanted to get over him. He rejected me after being shocked at my confession, and now I am feeling better each day, but still have to keep going and be patient. I did it for myself. I'm sad I lost a friend, but now that I'm starting to get over him, I'm seeing his flaws. I'm just realizing how blind love made me.

    The best advice I got for rejection was always value yourself and love yourself so that YOU are the prize. So when some tells you they’re not interested, it doesn’t bother you, you give freely, you may want them but you don’t need them.
    The problem is it takes time to really see that self worth in yourself. To stop putting yourself down because everyone is different and everyone has different hang ups. So it may take you a while to really validate yourself but it is possible. You will feel invincible when it comes to things like rejection.

    I'm in my 40s and I don't regret not dating for the last few years. Coming from an abusive family background (which I left just a few years ago), I kept getting involved with narcissistic men. The fear of regret of a toxic relationship was greater than being single until I healed. Just this year I felt confident to start dating because I know I'll attract healthier men. Watching this helped me realize I can handle rejection. Yeah it'll hurt, it'll suck, but gosh...my recovery time is far better now and I don't depend on people's approval like I use to. I think I've got this. ;)

    I really wasn't expecting to get this mind blowing message on the topic of rejection. Regret is a much stronger feeling than rejection. Over time the avoidance of rejection will turn to the painful feeling of regret. But the real key is it's a luxury to feel anything. As a 35 y/o who's loved and lost, it's never been more important to make sure that I just love life so I don't risk carrying the pain of regret in my heart.

    So true Matthew. I am 71 now and really wasted 43 years in two abusive marriages. Got out of the second one 4 years ago and have never looked back. I have freedom now I never knew. I did have a fantastic teaching career and supportive close friendships. I volunteer in many community programs. But denied myself a caring, kind and compassionate caring relationship hoping things would change. Matthew I have listened to many of your lectures. And would like to say like you do don’t invest too quickly. Get to truly know a person. Have they got relationship competency. I spent 2 years in breast cancer treatments and husband 2 ignored me, never went to any appointments with me and said not to talk about it. I was in survival mode but should of escaped. Oh yes during this time he went to a casino. Racked up a line of credit. I had fields of red flags. My advise: Get out immediately. You deserve so much more. Thanks Matthew for everything you say.

He moved on quickly and now has a family. I wasted 4 years of not dating and now I totally regret it. Now I go out there and date. After a month of dating this guy it didn’t work and well this made me sad but after seeing this video I don’t want to give up.

    I believe rejection is a blessing in disguise. I was speaking to someone who I got on with really well. When we arranged a date and met he was giving all the right signs, telling me I looked nice and how he wanted to kiss me etc. I didn’t get physical with him on the first date and he couldn’t take this and because of this I didn’t hear from him again. My blessing in disguise is the fact that this guy was after a purely physical relationship and I wanted more. Always remember there is someone out there who will be the right one. Don’t let someone who can’t see your worth get you down.

      Same thoughts here too... As he spoke i was thinking about why i stopped developing in my life in multiple ways, like personal and career, and while I thought about it and listened to him i got it... Self-evaluation and fear of rejection... Next step is to get to the roots of these kind of feelings...

    Rejection is fine, I don’t know what it’s like from a woman’s perspective but I don’t like rejection from people who are unable to express it as a simple no and instead choose to ignore ( the classic - I’ll let you know) or plan things and then cancel them last minute ( this would be from people I have know for awhile not just a couple times). But that’s how people choose to conduct themselves, grow a spine and confront things instead of avoiding an awkward situation, it’s healthier for you and the other person involved.

    I gave Love a second chance after Separating from a 15 year marriage. This man broke my heart, I was not even given the decency to be told the relationship was over. One day I didn't hear from him, second day came and so on. I was battling with all these raw emotions. I was very confused because he pursued me, He made all these plans about our lives together, said all the right things and then he was gone. This message pulled the heart strings and I was sad. I was sad not because he was gone but because I allowed myself to feel Iess of what I used to be ...a beautiful, funny, spirited person. I mourn losing myself than the guy. Thank you Matt for this gift of being my catalyst in RECLAIMING myself.

    This guy is a healer.
    I would like to share a story.
    I had my exam and there was this girl who i wanted to talk.The exam started from 16th May and ended on 21st May. From the the first day i wanted to talk to her and maybe go on a date with her.3 days past.It was 19th and the girl was next to me outside the corridor taking some of her study stuff out of her bag.The golden moment was right there infront of my eyes.We were only two outside there and no one was around.And guess what i did.
    NOTHING.
    Did not even had the courage to say Hi.
    I went home thinking i will talk to her tomorrow.
    Next day.The same old me, did nothing.
    Then the last day came.The exam was over.And there were many other student coming out of the exam hall.It was 10x times more hard for me this time.But it was the last day to talk to that unknown girl for me.I did not knew her name or which college was she from(It was our exam center and not my college).I was walking just behind her.She was in the parking area.It was on the open ground with the whole mass of students out there.And still somehow i mustered up the courage and said to her:
    Excuse me,
    she looked at me.
    I said can you tell me from where did you got that bag from.I want to buy that same coloured maroon bag for one of my friend.She smiled and told me all the details and it was hardly approximately 25 seconds of chat. I was so overwhelmed talking to her that i did not even said thank you or bye before leaving and left the conversation open ended.I did not got her name,not her number,nothing nothing nothing.
    But what i found that day in me was COURAGE.
    I touched the fear in me and tried to rub it little bit.
    From tomorrow onwards i strongly believe i am going to destroy all my excuses and face all the monsters in my head and face the demon face to face.
    Fear is temporary.
    You will overcome rejections with time.
    Overthinking will not serve you anything.
    Thats what i learned from this experience.
    YES. I talked to her. And i was proud of myself that day and even now.
    Some strange kind of an awakening happened that day inside me.
    I feel like i am limitless now .
    :-)

      Me too. I hate this "get the guy" things with seminars and emotional manipulation that these kinds of coaches seem to love, but this one was amazing... it even made me cry. I think when he goes out of the "how to" mode he has amazing insights and it really felt like he was talking from his heart.

    • @adembasou
      @adembasou 6 лет назад +3

      its not emotional manipulation i used to think so too, all it is, is understanding human psychology, and where men and woman are different ....., they re much the same as humans, and of course have equal rights, but are not exactly the same and never will be, thats nature-actually we are opposite, 2 peaces of the same, but opposite energies which can complement each other well, if understood properly.

    • @7Mushrooms7
      @7Mushrooms7 5 лет назад +2

      I think in some ways he does this "guerrilla" marketing and this "how to" and "follow this formula", "send this text and you'll get the guy" and I don't get this approach because it seems simplistic to me and just a way of selling. I'm not saying his methods might not work, but I don't like that approach nor do I want to spend my money on that But when he gets out of that mode and speaks from his heart he says amazing things that are truly wise and useful. That's why I find his youtube material so valuable, it has some gems in there and this is one of them.

  • @spearmint4093
    @spearmint4093 8 лет назад +28

    Wow Matthew. This was the best video you've ever did! It was exactly what I needed to hear. I can't thank you enough! I've wasted 1 year soon after a guy I loved much chose another woman over me. .
    I'm now 26 and just as you speak about I feel the luxury of time even though I can see it closing in.. I mean I'm not 16 anymore.. not 21.. but closer to 30. I just become a god mother to my brothers baby and feel like I should have a baby too at most 5 years from now. But in order for that to happen I have to find someone new and special one to share my life with.
    I really want an enduring relationship and to be positive I was closer than ever before with the last man who I loved the most. We almost got official among everyone, he said he wanted to be a father in 3 years time and move in together with me but then he dumped me out of the blue and got together with a totally different woman who had kids already. They've gone along steady for soon a year and I've painfully watched their happy faces on pictures while crying. I have ignored men and just tried to heal but it's been difficult since depression and all the heartache from missing for him.
    Now after your video I felt the right push I needed to end this misery and lift myself out of here. I'm now on gonna have a goal to go out at least 1 time a week among people/friends/date to meet folks and perhaps the real soulmate and love of my life. I thought I found him but he didn't felt the same about me and I got to accept that, ain't no going back from here.. he treated me like shit when he dumped me and didn't even call to talk things through or explain why he didn't want me suddenly anymore..yet he hooked me along with hope though saying "maybe things will get different in about up to a year from now" but that was just to make me a reserve #2 now I see..
    I couldn't study or work at all due to concentration difficulties and I had trouble meeting friends or be good to family cause of bad mood since he broke off..
    I'm tired of that and feel petrified I wasted so much time on nothing but grieving tears and longing for him to come back!
    Now screw that, imma' go find happiness again, and I'll try try try untill I've tried all I can how hurtful perhaps more breakups even will be I got to put myself out there again! If I by 40 still won't have THE ONE I will at least thank myself for that I tried, right?
    Once again thank you a billion times Matthew, thanks to you I now have a better mindset- you're the best!
    P.s. If you see this.. do you recommend me your program " get back ex"? Even if I shouldn't hope to get back my ex you said this program could be helpful anyway to move along?

    • @spearmint4093
      @spearmint4093 8 лет назад

      Naomi Ingram Hey girl, glad you wrote me! Sad to hear you also been through a rough year though.. it hurts so bad and we do deserve better, but its hard to understand it when that guy shows the opposite..
      Last month i moved out and started going out socializing like crazy! I've been on 6 dates and met a ton of guys in the clubs who at least seemed attracted to me there.. i know its shallow though but some of all i've dated have been more in contact and perhaps are interested.. im not so into them though .. i still pine for my ex, but im trying to move on now for real.. ive just been sulking along and crying on my own for a year.. so now that im starting going out people notice me.. i'm like a princess in a castle just released.. i've had a whole lot of fun and new stories through all this socializing so i really recommend it and by the way, i've gotten 4 new girl-friends too! Which i totoally need and am happy about, expanding my circle of friends :)
      I think this might be the cure.. i've done the innerwork and now its time to put everyting in action which i've done. I'm not on a hunt for "mr.Right" but if he comes along.. i can't sayim not open to it althoug hi still have low hopes for someone to be more glorious than my ex..
      So yeah.. lets do this sister! I'm hoping for the best for you and that we'll find happiness and love again but for real forever :)
      Like you said we dont want to regret anything so its better we TRY to put ourselves out there and see what we catch than to not try to get some "fish" (boyfriend) at all.. ;)
      If you got skype or something i'd be glad to add you and we can talk/share/support each other through these harsh emotions.

    What I find hard is when things seem to be going so great and the guy says how fantastic I am and that he's falling for me etc but then his communication starts to decrease and he's not as affectionate and then I just say one thing wrong and that's it, he breaks up with me. I don't get it

      Sometimes it's not your fault, guys lose his interest at anytime. That sucks I know. He is not the right guy for you, trust me. If he's for you he won't lose his interest, he will pursue you. The right guy will want to be with you. Forget about him and move on. I understand it's hard but keep thinking what we've done something wrong doesn't help. We have life to live.
      You deserve better ☺️

    • @Lulabellexd
      @Lulabellexd 8 лет назад +24

      Yeah you're right Komomo.
      He said he really liked everything about me except felt I was too insecure. This was because of the fact that I questioned something he said to me. He said that he wouldn't be able to message me much one week because he was going to be working flat out on a building site, but I didn't really believe that. I mean surely he'd get a lunch break and be able to send one message for example to say "hope your day is going good beautiful", like he did in the beginning?
      I felt he may have been trying to get out of the relationship a bit but he insisted it wasn't that and he was just really busy so I gave him the benefit of the doubt but as the week went on I felt so neglected because even in the evenings his communication had decreased, it wasn't as affectionate, sometimes with no kisses when he'd normally put about 10! Although he did say that he had no time even for himself but I just didn't buy it and when I asked for a bit of reassurance that he wasn't avoiding me and that he did still like me, he absolutely flipped out at me. He said I wasn't listening to what he had said to me a few times about his work. He said "you can't handle my work ethics", but it wasn't that at all. I was really civilized when I was asking him about things to try and understand and get that reassurance from him, but he just got angry and said he couldn't be with me anymore because I'm too insecure. I was shocked by his response really and how quickly he could dump me without even trying to discuss things. He didn't wanna know me after that, which hurt me a lot because we had started to become really good friends as well.
      I feel so hurt, angry and confused by his actions. I feel he led me on big time and then used the excuse of me being insecure to end things with me. I think he was chatting to another girl or girls and found someone he liked more. That's my gut feeling :(. The frustrating thing is to start off with he was so amazing. Almost too good to be true. He was a bit too full on though saying he wanted to get serious with me and even have babies with me after 3 days! it was all too fast too soon I think. After our first skype which lasted for 5 hours he said he was falling for me big time and I really believed him. Oh well, I guess that's what you get when you go for someone 10 years younger than you. I think he was very immature and has a lot to learn about women and how to treat them!

I think when we also like someone, we expect too much from him and we became so nagging and he thinks that we are so annoying with that behaviour so he made up so many excuses to avoid us. Thats just being so typical guys I guess. And he knew that we really like him. I really can feel you Lucy. I hope we can find someone better!! Kisses :*
