I was rejected without even doing anything.
I've known this girl for almost two years. We're not friends, but I like talking to her. I think she's cool.
We've been talking a lot these days, and yesterday was her birthday. Today she mentioned that she got some perfumes as gifts, and apparently she knows a lot about perfume. I mentioned that someone once complained about my perfume, saying its for man from the streets. She agreed and said it was a “mainstream” perfume, so I asked her for a perfume suggestion. Her response was “You should ask the person who's going to smell you.” Like, tf? I don't think I'll ever recover from this.
It really sucks to feel rejected, especially when you've invested time in getting to know someone. It seems like you had a genuine connection that just wasn’t reciprocated. Hang in there; sometimes these things lead to better opportunities or help clarify what you truly want.
