So there is this one ex coworker of mine who I’ve always found attractive. Recently I saw profile online , and so I added her. We caught up , and chatted. Right away , I felt like she probably didn’t have any romantic feelings for me as it would take days for a lengthy reply. I ended up asking if she would like to go on a date and that there was no pressure at all , and if she wanted to just remain homies , I could also be that. I was told that the other person felt very flattered but she wasn’t interested. I replied that I appreciated her honesty and that we could definitely be friends .
It does suck not being able to date this person, but Im proud of how I took the rejection this time around. Usually , I’d take the rejection personally , even if the rejection wasn’t mean or anything. It does sting a little , but id rather feel this sting and know that things wouldn’t have worked rather than regret not shooting my shot. Needed to type this here , don’t socialize much. Welp , back to lab 🏀
