• I would never defend or say that behavior is justified by hurt feelings. I am saying that just saying “just don’t take rejection personally” is in no way a helpful response. To misquote Schoppenhauer, a person can choose how they react, but they can’t choose how they feel – especially when hormones are involved.

      I never said anywhere that you shouldn’t take the rejection personally though, nor was it implied.
