For Anyone Struggling With Rejection. . .

Sometimes it feels as though love and attention come easily to everybody else. Meanwhile, for us, dating feels like a string of painful rejections or endless cycles of feeling used and overlooked.

The reality is that some people simply have an easier time in dating than others. So, if you are someone who doesn’t identify with getting a lot of attention or having much luck, how can you combat the insidious feeling of panic that it simply won’t happen for you?

If you relate to this, I hope this video provides a much-needed boost to help you overcome the pain of frequent rejection and reframe your situation so you can feel hopeful again.

Just ended up a going-nowhere situationship…it still felt like a heart-breaking rejection that he wouldn’t want anything serious. This comes in very timely to remind me what Matthew always says: if he doesn’t choose you then he is not your person!

Always love yourself more than anyone else. So if the person you want rejects you, you won't be hurt that much. You are valuable and someone's rejection doesn't mean you are less.

Here with a broken heart. I realized he just wasn't that into me. Thank you, I needed to hear that

[mayumi]

And that person who is going to make it all worth while…will be yourself. ❤

[northmann]

I needed to hear this. Sometimes I feel so small and sad. Thank you

[delroysibelo]

My confidence is the lowest its ever been

[isabelitaruizVO]

Feel like I have to put this on repeat for a while 🔁 😄

[OrangeSound]

I'm not dating or planning to, but i do want to make huge improvements career-wise. There will be many hardships and challenges. And the person waiting for me in the end... Will be the person i aspire to become 🥰

Matt, I stopped listening to other relationship gurus because their advice was too general. Yours is the only one that made me pay attention. Keep doing what you do! You're helping a lot of people 🤍

[synychka]

Thank you. You said the right words and made me cry. I needed to hear this. 10 months of correspondence with the guy who even didn't try to meet me. I put all my energy into this. Never thought I will ever accept this kind of "relationship ". It is the time to think about myself and what I want. It is time to stop this craziness. Thank you ❤

The grief of loss is breaking me. I’m in so much pain 😭 and I feel like this rollercoaster is never going to end. Im not strong like I used to be. I’m so exhausted and worn down always picking myself back up and moving forward. To just say ‘have confidence’ is an over generalized remark. Many of us do have confidence and really good people but are absolutely heartbroken cuz we can’t meet genuine authentic connections. We live in a very self consumed society where people only care about themselves. They use, manipulate, lie, emotionally unavailable, cheat, this list goes on.

You've got to cultivate self-worth that comes from within. When you completely accept yourself as you are, it doesn't matter about other people's rejections because you know it's not personal. Might still hurt, no one likes that feeling, but when you know your worth, your perception changes. When someone you like rejects you, it might just be triggering a survival response of fear of rejection and abandonment. If you were raised with an anxious-ambivalent attachment style, it's like being programmed to expect everyone to reject and abandon you. You have to just accept it, and decide to believe in yourself (even if your parents didn't). Self-respect. You can cultivate a mindset like "I'm happy with who I am, this is what I have to offer. Other people can make up their own mind if there's anything in it for them."

I just love your straightforward content so much!❤ Definitely great advice in the dating world. Rejection hurts and it’s not easy.

[Dragonmoon]

I agree 100%. It's just a pain in the butt to get there. But, I'm trying. 😁

[alanabirt]

I had that confidence you are speaking of but over time and all the rejections it has dissipated .

[Ak]

I love this because i have noticed i struggle with rejection from the dates i go on and doesn't work out. Thank you!!! I needed this!

[sportysas]

Love this beautiful message. Thank you!

[MaryelllenAustin]

Matthew, this is so beautiful! I already found “my person”😊 but this is amazing learning to accept how life is, to not let past or future rejection impact me, & therefore to love & strengthen all that is good! You so Rock! Thank you!😍

[joancramer]

Oh sir. You said this so well. Feel like I’ve been placed in this relationship so God could show me how to conduct myself and learn from it. The grow into His vision of me. For the right one we have to learn of our selves inside. & out. Didn’t realize how people mirror each other. Wow
Thank you. Fearful w/anxious flirting n kissing yet he wants me around as friend. ‘ Help me Lord. In Jesus Name. Amen.’

There’s a lot of toxic men who are emotionally unstable and their rejection is my reward. The one guy who’s being pushy on Facebook hurt me, but I have never met him so I’ve just dodged a bully!
