Social Rejection


According to Wikipedia, social rejection can be defined as a deliberate exclusion of an individual from a social interaction or relationship. Social in this sense simply means a gathering to foster introduction or cooperating in groups. Studies have shown that since humans are social beings, to that extent, social rejection is inevitable. We have all been rejected in one way or another socially, but how did we manage that rejection? How did we separate what was and what was not? Transcending the illusion of rejection?. Rejection has been said to occur in two forms, it is either passive or active. Active involves teasing and bullying which can be associated with children and teens, while passive involves ignoring a person or giving the silent treatment which can be associated with adults.
  The experience of rejection can be subjective to the recipient and it is sometimes percieved when it is not there due to prolonged and consistent rejection. Truth is we humans have a need to associate and relate with one another and while we nurture that need and bask in the moment of want we are so overwhelmed that we forget that the factor "choice" is ingredient in every interaction or association because what we unconsciously do When we try to associate is we literally hand out a proposal that says I am going to be worth your while or you remind me of myself I think we will both enjoy our company. So in the process of trying to be funny, trying to sell, we lose sight of the what if's and what is next if my "proposal" is refused do we then see ourselves as not good enough? Or socially retarded? Do we then allow ourselves to become a case study where people make money off us and make theories and term us this and that? Do we then remain lonely? Have low self esteem? Be aggressive? Be depressed? Be immature? Have an impulsive behaviour? It is high time we started being confident about ourselves, it is high time we evolved, why should you be depressed when someone does not recognize your value? For goodness sake who is at a loss? Do not worry they will come around they always do, and if they don't, it is simply good riddance to bad rubbish. The truth is each and every one of us is awesome in our own little way and we deserve someone who will appreciate and value that awesomeness. So if we get rejected in the process of finding that person do not give up and become depressed, life is too short to let some blind persons decide how you live. So be cool with which you are irrespective of what you are, people will always have their opinion about you, well, that is why they call it an opinion, it does not count unless you want it to. The honest truth is rejection is inevitable even the most social people in the world also suffer rejection once in a while, so do not ever take it personal because it is never personal it is just life!!!
