I feel the need for a short rant/social critique. I just made the realization that I know A Lot of people who come to me almost Every week with some story about how they either got turned down by this person, or this person's a dick, or that person doesn't like them. And consistently they say, "I'm done. I'm just gonna stop trying. It's not worth it." and a week later they come back with another such story. Obviously you are still trying, and putting yourself out there.
I just don't understand this. When both of us know that you're going to walk away and go right back to pursuing either the same relationship or another one; What is the purpose of walking around and telling everyone you know "I just don't care anymore!"? It makes people sound so immature and fake. It's unattractive and pointless. I guess in the end the lesson is: when it doesn't work out, learn how to be upset with the the relationship at hand and move on without being immaturely overly dramatic. If you want to be real, and have mature relationships, express freely your exasperation with This particular relationship, and then move on. I honestly think you will definitely garner greater respect from everyone for your strength of character with this.
So that's my rant.

I agree!!! I hate when people get pissed at one person, and decide to throw all other future prospects away. Get over yourself! You have any years ahead of you. Don't stress over that one person.
