i literally don't have any accomplishments apart from the fact that i survived 17 years without killing myself. wow.

[TheCbrown]

Don't get mad. Get even. Make your own club and reject everyone.

[Supermanohman]

force yourself to smile even if you're upset. Trust me on this. Just smile for no reason. It will make you feel better.

[sydneys.]

Rejected by people I don't even know and you know what? They will never know me because I don't want to know someone like that.

When your crush said no to taking you to a dance...

2:25 YOU SEEM TO REPLACE YOUR BRAIN WITH YOUR HEART YOU TAKE THINGS SO HARD AND THEN YOU FALL APART

[shadeunofficial]

to be honest, i've been rejected so much i don't even know what it is anymore... 😐

[MaksProger]

1:00 She has blood vessels in her hair? WTF?!

[naellaloami]

If someone EVER rejects YOU: Turn around flip your hair and act like they be trippin' (SORRY Shanaynay moment there *clears throat*) because THEY are. Yeah it hurts alot. Believe me I know.... anyways, they really are. They dont obviously don't know what they is missing out on, and thats their loss, because when you become somewhat beyonce famous (gotta love queen B though) you show that VERY BAD word that what they did made you stronger and by then you'll have a new stronger hotter more loving boy on your arm, and you can flip your hair again with your Gucci like self. You rock gurl...

AND TO THE GUYS: almost the same thing, BUT if you got that flowy long hair, WHO is rejecting you!!! Her loss then. LOL. And to the guys with normal length hair, just wait. Cuz after when your like in your twenties, and you got that muscle though.... but dont push yourself now. Your wasting it.

To all (if you is still reading- dont worry we are almost done hold your horses shug): It does hurt I know... but they don't deserve you. And if they did they would of said yes to you honey. But since they didn't they are the ones who are the Felicia's of the world and they need to go bye. (Yes, I have seen Friday)

After being rejected for 3 times in a row, I'm used to it with a much lower self-confidence gained. And at this point I know I should stop trying

[gamezunited]

In grade 2 i always got bullied because i was fat but then i reported it to my father my father told the principal and in grade 3 EVERYONE was my friend but then in grade 4 i had to change school....












IT WAS THE BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE i meant tons of people there and i showed them my personality and they liked me for who i was. So moral of the story theres still some hope for all you guys out there so GOOD LUCK!!!

[noobyboy]

My best friend left to another school so I was about to cry but I met this girl that is so hyperactive and fun like me

[jisu]

I've been rejected by 8 crushes, either because they like my best friends or they have a "girlfriend" which they don't . I don't know how to love, it's like I'll never fall in love or any thing. I'm very heartbroken, more like my heart has shattered into million of pieces. 😢

[kennethjackson]

no. way. you guys, I swear are the most amazing people ever. not only have you changed my life, but you have also boosted my self esteem by putting me in a video, I love you guys.

[carlosesquilin]

life rejected me shortly after sanity did.

[mheryllmarie]

No, I didn't get rejected. I'm only watching this for my friend. Yes, she got rejected. I wanna help her out and make sure that she's back to her happy self !

[ptcrush]

I got rejected by every girl I've asked out. :(

[thaniti]

I can't thank you enough for these tips. I used to be connected to people who talked about people I don't even know because I have a really good friend in that group so today I sat with a group of people who watch dr who like me and I have much more friends than before. Thank you!

[peachypie]

I got rejected 30 times already and im just 12 😢😢😢😢😢😢

Everyone gets annoyed by different things others do, and usually they're just little things that the other person can't help. It's good to be as understanding as possible of each others' differences.
