Logically, I know that trying and getting rejected is better than not trying at all. Other people have even said “you were brave to go and talk to her, etc.” yet, when I get turned down, it hurts, and a part of me feels stupid for trying. I beat myself up over it. Like, I know I’m not gonna go and just insult the girl for turning me down, but I just feel shitty.

Does anyone else feel this way? If you dealt with it and got over it, how did you do it?
