There really isn't any other way to say it, rejection sucks. I can't imagine that it is fun for anyone, but I think it is something that we have all faced at one time or another. Understandable, rejection can really sour a mood and make it difficult to put yourself out there in the future. So what are some ways you have handled it?
Share any tips or experiences you might've had that could be helpful for someone dealing with rejection.
Scarleteen is closed for the next two days, so that's Thursday, October 31st (for Halloween) and Friday, November 1st (for Diwali). We'll be back and able to answer your questions on Saturday. Catch you soon!
