Afraid of rejection

    Hi Bassma

    You know what darling whatever you do - DO NOT CHANGE and DO NOT LOOSE HOPE IN LOVE AND BEING LOVED. Looks are a mere component of falling in love with another person...you sound like a beautiful person to me and don't ever loose that within yourself. Love is always closer than we think. I understand that the constant rejection of obtaining a mutual loving partner must get tiring and frustrating but its not the be-all end-all of who you are nor does it define your life, or you as a woman. In good given time you will find a partner who can return respectfully and equally the love you have to give. In the meantime don't let it dampen your true personality or your smile as you never know who is falling in love with that in itself. Romantic relationships take time, energy and patience to built - I know that from experience and with those three things Im sure you will a partner.
    Remember you may have to kiss a few toads to finally find your prince...you can't force others to feel the same way as you do, you just be your self and wait for someone to fall for you...
    Goodluck my friend

    To the first comment\answer posted. Not true, you cannot speak for every guy out there. Of course when you're still young you're going to try new things, date different kinds of girls, its so he is able to see what kind of girl he is looking for, Girls do it TOO. If the guy loves you truly, he will stay with you and i cant talk for this point, because its happening to me.

    And to being afraid of rejection, everyones a little bit scared of it, the main point is, are you willing to take the chance?
    Go for it and see, if he brushes you off, just be like ok and act like it doesnt bother you, that way its saves the awkwardness. But yeah, dont change yourself, there is a guy out there for you, doesnt necessarily mean you'll find him right now, just enjoy life, and he'll come along.

    Take Care

    HEY ere..
    i agree with comment above u cant class every bloke the same...
    they all have diffreent tastes as such like us girls do... they are human beings even if sometimes they dont seem it lol
    um unfortionally i understand where your coming from.. the rejection feeling is one of the worset i reckon.. its being let down by thm what hurts too but if your anything like me youll get used to it after awhile lol.. been let down and rejected a few time now because the blokes ive got involved with say
    "I CANT HANDLE U BEING SUCH A GREAT PESON.. UR TOO GD FOR ME.. YOUR STUNNING YOUR PERSONALITY I CANT HANDLE OTHER BLOKES LOOKING AT YOU"

    BUT it didnt matter how many times i said im with you i wanna be with you no one else..
    um but the "i see you just as i friend.." had that doent o me too.. um but ido it to blokes.. i know my best lad mate likes me more than a friend but i tell him i love you like a brother your my best mate.... um so yeah we all do it really...

    and if your willing to take that chance with this lad and say look i like you... blah blah blah then let him say either WOHOO i like you too lol
    or if he says look i only want you as a friend then thats just as good as having nothing at all.....

    dont u change yourself for anyone.. and dont let anyone try and change you.. you are who you are and who ever is meant to be for you and with you he will fall in love with every piece of you....
    take it day by day and youll get someone soon.. (im still waiting lol)

    take care yeah..

    ok well first things first...don't take advice from other women...they think they know EVERYTHING..when in fact they are COMPLETELY off scale...2nd part...you miss EVERY opportunity you don't take...basically in a nutshell you gotta MAN UP...you get a better reaction if you come out with it...it's a straight answer don't beat around the bush...guys hate that..i hate that...just ask him and see what he says...if it's no...talk bout it..and if that don't work...think you might wanna move on...that's my 2 cents..anyway hit me back...peace

    "don't take advice from other women...they think they know EVERYTHING.."

    ^Lol. Brutal honesty. I'm killing myself laughing.

    Anyways, to the original poster, I can see where you're coming from. But to answer your question, there isn't really anything you can do. If he doesn't see you as anything other than a friend, than you can't expect him to change that.
    And rejection is something we all fear, you can be rejected a hundred times and still never get used to it. Unfortunately, it's a part of life.
    You'll find someone eventually, some people just get stuck waiting for him.
