    You just have to find someone that views you as a partner and not a god. That way, you have room to mess up and be human.

  • @Jotaro5181 says:

    I feel like it doesn’t matter what you do. You could make a lot of money, you could be fit, confident and ALL THAT and she still will reject you!

  • @lawrence31415 says:

    For me, I view rejection as a valuable gift in the sense that I still have my freedom, I can aim to do better, and that I have a renewed opportunity to find the right connection. Compatibility starts with mutual interest. If it’s not there, then don’t put in the work into lighting a spark that is not there. Walk away peacefully and appreciate that you had a good moment. Know your worth, and the right person will recognize and appreciate your qualities.

  • @gamerdude612 says:

    Your videos are really helpful to me I thank you Courtney I’m still early in my dating journey trying to make myself better for when/if it happens I’ll have a better idea of what I’m doing.

  • @hike824-9 says:

    Courtney is right about there being a lot of variables out of our control that can cause us to be rejected. However, it can be very exhausting to put yourself out there and constantly be rejected and constantly be told by others that you are enough. How do we become enough to not be rejected? We could be anywhere at any moment and see someone we’re very attracted to and want to go on a date with. We can ask them out and do everything right and still get rejected. It’s extremely disappointing.

    • @Cee_Eff says:

      Especially when it happens over and over-you/others start to think that something is “wrong” with you. That’s when the rejection really hurts

    • @memememememe-x9b says:

      Then, keep looking. You all are children.

    • @paulgiarmo3628 says:

      ​@memememememe-x9byou’re just full of empathy, aren’t you, tough guy. We’re not all unemotional robots like you.

    • @Kevin-qf2hs says:

      Women these days are looking for the silliest reasons to reject someone it’s insane. I know guys who were rejected even over food preferences or clothing preferences. There’s even surveys showing lot of women less likely to date guys who own anything other than iPhones! Imagine that.

    • @Cee_Eff says:

      ​@paulgiarmo3628 Or Chad who never has to deal with this

  • @jefferydebbink282 says:

    This just happened to me. For the second time in my dating life, a lady agreed and wanted to go on a second date with me, but in the time in between our first date and planned second date she suddenly concluded that we didn’t have a connection. It’s frustrating when this happens but I’ve learned to just move on and keep living my life. Call arrogant or prideful, but I just say to myself, “It’s her loss and it’s not worth my time and energy to lose sleep over it.”

    Important things: 0:41 First Thing ÷ Modern Dating Landscape; 3:00 Second Thing ÷ Emotional Cues Matter; 4:06 Third Thing ÷ The Role Of Your Life Outside Of Dating; 4:47 Fourth Thing ÷ Timing, Readiness And External Factors; 6:06 Fifth Thing ÷ Reframe Rejection As A Feedback; and 8:07 to summarize all the told here.
    The male rejection can also be used for female rejection as well.
    Additional things what can be also these things: Sixth Thing ÷ Immature Behaviors; Seventh Thing ÷ Lack Of Knowledge (and I mean on emotional knowledge to be precise); Eighth Thing ÷ Being In A Zone That Is Familiar To Us.
    For sixth thing I meant that sometimes we can see that some people do behave immature no matter what age are they (and that applies to men and women equally). At seventh thing I meant that sometimes lack of empathy and understanding is not present at some people (honor to the exceptions to those who aren’t like that, of course) (but also can be partly used to second and sixth thing as well). As for eighth thing I meant on thing such as avoiding to work on yourself and to make progress on the given opportunities (but this can be partly used to third and fourth thing).
    The rejection is something that can really hurt us (since that’s inevitable thing, like it or not), but it doesn’t mean that you should give up on your ideas and goals. It is very important to appreciate those who do say things honestly and also to say truth. Why? Because the truth hurts less than lie. Also lie hurts perennially.
    Sometimes the rejection that you have mentioned Courtney, I can say that is a bit similar to job interview. It’s like when being called to interview, and we try our best at talking. But at some things they see something, and they consider something that is not okay to them. And they use a Hollywood treatment (as I would like to call it), when they as at movies this thing: “We’ll give you a call.” But in reality they don’t do that. On the other hand, if the job interview went well, you’ll get a positive feedback, and perhaps some of them will say to you this: “If you have any other things that you are willing to ask, just give us a call. We’ll be seeing in that arrangement.”
    When I was listening to you Courtney, I have remembered two quotes. And they go like this:
    1. Nebojša Glogovac once told this: “No matter how hard you try to be good, to some people, that’s not enough.”
    2. This one goes from Rocky movies, but you can correct me if I’m wrong: “The life is not getting easier It’s not matter how much do you fall after that hit. What does matter is how can you strong enough to take that hit and to move on with the life.”
    Enjoy in your life dear people. Happy Sunday all, dear people.

  • @italiaryan35 says:

    I absolutely agree that rejection should be a learning opportunity for men to grow and change certain behaviors. I just don’t see rejection in today’s age being that though, it’s more like men are being rejected because women are taught there will probably be someone better so they move on. Then you have the issue of being plastered all over creation for being you, for being a man. Saying all this, social media instead of being a help to society has been it’s downfall in every which way.

  • @thedarkshadow24 says:

    Thanks Courtney! I love you

  • @brysonhall4480 says:

    I feel like the best way to handle dating these days is to just not care about it, or maybe even actively avoid it (just a little bit). If someone comes along and it works out…..great. If you can’t find someone before the music stops, or they break it off, no big deal….you weren’t counting on it anyway.

    • @brianbard3410 says:

      You know what, people are conditioned from youth to already be adversely or not attracted to someone attracted to you , there’s a pre existence of lower sexual market value by the approaching person,

  • @nairnbaker7385 says:

    Appreciate all the different perspectives on this channel. Thanks Courtney

  • @noahl.3017 says:

    I call the three girls that have rejected me (most recently) my three muses (metaphor to the archetypal hero journey) each inspiring me to work on a different aspect of myself. Ultimately, I still talk with them, and we have mutual respect.

  • @Amaroosta says:

    Dating should be an Olympic sport at this point

  • @adamnicholls1688 says:

    Part of the problem sometimes is that men don’t always know the real reason(s) why a woman rejects them.

    Often the reasons – if she gives them – can be vague and/or lies. So assessing what went “wrong” can be often be next to impossible to nail, with lots of guesswork.

    Perhaps its understandable to a degree – some men don’t take direct rejection at all well – but can be extremely frustrating to not really know what went wrong!

  • @ghjccbmktscvbbnhvt8dtusrztis says:

    Guys, we need to understand that rejection is really more of “Not Exceping my invitation”. If you sell tickets for the soccer game, even 50% off, most of the folks not going to buy it. Great topic Courtney! Always positive and fresh

  • @SamuelMoreno-o6p says:

    In relationships if one gives 100% and the other give 20 or 30% then that means it that the relationship won’t workout out or it won’t even succeed and it will fail. And I am speaking from experience from being single since high school until i got a girlfriend my senior year and relationship with my ex like 1 year.

  • @WhtIfIToldU says:

    I was rejected at a church by a fellow volunteer and I took care not to do it in a creepy location. I just asked her to brunch. So that was VERY personal. She made false accusations to staff, who then ran their own campaign and pushed me out the door. In my case it was VERY personal on several fronts. As a result i HEAVILY vet before even trying. I need to know them fairly well to know it’s safe. And in three years the the result is I haven’t even asked for a date at all. I’m not MGTOW and I’m open to the possibility, but I’m hyper vigilant now and if I’m meant to be alone, so be it.

  • @GhettoWagon says:

    I get a rejected alot. No one cares about me. Maybe its time to give up. Yup its all the times you got X’d it makes you feel “Oh this again”

  • @irnaguid says:

    I like to think of rejection like this: People are like ice cream. Baskin Robbins famously has 31 flavours in the store. Each one of those flavours makes them money. Each one is somebody’s favourite flavour, but none of them is everyone’s favourite flavour. When I get rejected I just think that I’m not their favourite flavour of person. There are plenty of people who aren’t my favourite flavour of person. I just have to find the person for whom I am their favourite flavour of person.
