I think that to reject someone is harder, i've experienced both before but i think rejecting someone is harder to do than it is to accept rejection from somebody. How 'bout you fellow my Lotter?

hello addicted2luv!. your question makes me think...hmm..nice discussion.. anyways i think that to reject someone is harder than to be rejected.. see i dont want to hurt another person's feelings and i dont intend to become bad or to lose friendship because i have to reject someone.. in cases wherein someone wants me and wants to be my boyfriend but i alread have feelings for someone else, its like i want to erase the feeling that i have for that someone else so that i wont hurt the one who loves me. id rather be hurt and experience the pain than hurt someone else because i cannot live with the guilt..

On my case, it is harder to accept rejecting someone than me being rejected. It's like, it is hard to say no than yes.

I agree with you that to reject someone is realy harder specially when you have a good hearted but it is normal to reject people to those who dont have conscience and dont care about others feelings.

It really depend on the other person, some people are easy to reject because they make it fell right.. but if they are good and you have to do it although it hurt them it will be very hard to do.. As for being rejected it also depend on the way you are being rejected either it is gentle and considerate or brutal and insulting..

I think its easier to reject a person than to be rejected. Reason being the control factor. When you reject a person, you have the say so.. you can way your options and then choose to reject or not. But when you are the one being shoved aside, there is no if,ands, or buts about it. The other person has done it, without your concent.
