If I have done something wrong, even if itis realised late, I will go and say sorry. If not, still if a person does not talk, even close family member, I just try to ignore. They will realise their mistake and they come and ask sorry. Instead, If I go on plead, they make it a habit to repeat such things every now and then. Since this practice works better, no body ever does such a thing with me. Above all, I always extend my love and affection to them. They do not want to lose that!!

I have always said "I do not hold grudges" .. NO matter how much I have been hurt, I always go back and smile and help the other who may hurt me.. It does not however take away the sting of the hurt.. We are humans with emotions..I believe to deny they exist is to deny our humanity..wouldn't you agree?+

Rejection is real gets hurt. But do not personalize it. If somebody rejects you, it's not because you are you but because you are not just complimentary to each other. Think, that there are still others who are more worth for your feelings and accept you as who you are.

Yes rejection is real and hurts.. as it touches on some deep emotions which are attached to our senses .. We cannot deny what is part of our human makeup.. Realizing there are others who care does help but what do you do when it someone real close..when it's flesh and blood, family?+

I usually try to get them to open up to me at first. But if I see it is getting me no where then I just wait it out. Eventually, they will come to me to talk and we can work through whatever it was bothering them.
