After going through a breakup with the girl of my dreams 4 months ago then her finding a new bf 2 months after our breakup. I have been less scared of rejection from girls. I wasn't really that scared before I met my ex but now its like that pain of rejection does not even compare to the pain of losing the girl you love. So that one positive I got from the breakup. Do you have the same feeling?

I completely agree. I wouldn't say I feared rejection before, but I certainly didn't always put myself out there. Now I have this "who the f cares" attitude. I know I am not ready to date yet, and I would not want to subject someone to being my rebound...but I tell you what, when I am ready (my gauge is 2-3 more months based on how my healing is going thus far)- I'm not going to give a **** if I get shot down because it will not pale in comparison, not by a long shot! lol. Definitely made me stronger!

Yeah the pain of rejection is nothing compared to losing the one you fell in love with nothing. For me its like "Oh she might reject me but I have been through a hell of a lot worse pain."

Exactly, for someone I don't even know to shoot me down, that pain would last what, all of but 5 seconds? Compared to a month of pure pain, and additional month of sadness. Pppsh! Please, I can handle it!
