I just want to vent about rejections.

Well shit guys, I've had just one hell of a month.

Last fall I started college. I was super excited to meet new people and hopefully find someone cool. I focused more on gaining friends before dating. I had a crush on a guy (let's call him James), but he was in a relationship already so that ship sailed.

So along comes this semester. I was kind of disappointed because no one had shown interest in me up to this point. However, one of the guys in our friend group starts texting me. I start to really think things could work, then in the next week he tells me he doesn't actually think he's ready for a relationship and just wants to be friends. But, I got over that super quick because I realized we wouldn't be the best for each other.

Two days later I hear James and his girlfriend have broken up. So I start things off slow, I ask our mutual friend Aaron to put in a good word for me, and James invites me to a party. At the end of the night he also texts me saying he just wants to be friends.

Then two nights ago, Aaron and I are hanging out and he confesses he would like to date even though I only see him as a friend. So, I end up rejecting him.

I feel like I've had WAY too many rejections in one month. I don't know if I even want to worry about dating for awhile anymore.

TL;DR: Got rejected twice, then rejected someone all in the span of one month. What is life.
