I have heard a lot of stories from my female friends about how poorly some males respond when their advances have been rejected.

And the more I hear those stories, the more I think, More of these guys need to work in sales.

Learning how to deal with rejection is an integral part of growing up, isn’t it? An essential rite of passage.

How a person handles rejection, or pain, or adversity, tells you a lot about a person.

“Rejection is a part of any man’s life. If you can’t accept and move past rejection, or at least use it as writing material – you’re not a real man.”
