Geometrical1 Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 How does one cope easily with their egos when getting turned down after dates? For example, I met a girl two weeks ago. We got along well. Got her number, took her out on a date. We had a great evening. She wanted us to see each other again, so I was looking forward to that. Then after, she blew me off, using lame excuses not to see me. The worst thing is, she's seeing one of my friends a bit (well, not exactly one of my friends, but one of my "familiar acquaintances"). We both met her during the same night but I had no idea he had his eyes on her as well. I made the first move, but in the end it seems she's turned me down and it does, naturally, make me pissed off. So. How does one cope with their ego? When I compare myself with this guy, I'm taller (we're both short, but he's really short), better looking and more interesting than him (without sounding arrogant, but all he talks about is soccer). My ego sucks right now. I feel like crap.
Philosoraptor Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Everyone gets rejected. You need to understand that her picking someone else doesn't mean anyone else is better than you, just that she feels that they might be a better fit for her. What you need to do is get over yourself right now because your comparisons don't mean a thing. You see some butt ugly people with beautiful ones, just a fact. She might have liked his personality better. Maybe he opened up a bit more to her and she liked that. Maybe they went at it after the date and he was awesome in bed. Either way, it doesn't matter. It doesn't make anyone better than you, just a better match.
