re·jec·tion (r -j k sh n). n. 1. The act of rejecting or the state of being rejected. 2. Something rejected.




Rejection can be a total blow to your self-image and have you thinking all kinds of craziness! I, personally, am deathly afraid of being rejected. I guess it's because it's a feeling I haven't really experienced. I consider myself to be a very confident individual, but is it wrong of me to be hesitant to do some things because of this fear?

As a Gemini (Yes, I'm going there.), I posses a host of qualities that, to the observer, make me out to be a strong, willful, intelligent soul capable of overcoming any negative reactions to my ideas, behavior...whatever. What's not readily visible to said observer is the fact that I am a fucking nervous wreck!


We Gemini women analyze every situation 3 and 4 times and secretly worry that we aren't making people happy and that shit is the absolute worst! In turn, we end up not pursuing certain endeavors or attempting to build relationships (platonic and/or otherwise) with certain people.


This is not something you get over from one day to the next, rather an innate propensity to totally screw yourself over and be pissed about it for years to come.


I guess where I'm going with all of this is that I'm slowly realizing that it's okay to wear my heart on my sleeve and that whomever is truly deserving of this gargantuan, Gemini heart might be hiding in some realm outside of my comfort zone and it's up to me to get out there and find him. (Great.)
