Dr Vendetta agony auntA rejection is nothing more than the person saying " i'm not good enough for you, you can and will do better as i will only screw your life up"

works like a charm.

ArmyMedic agony auntOk as you have seen from other answers guys take rejection to heart, but not all guys take it so badly, to still be "mad at you" after all this time, maybe he's over reacting.

Most guys who get rejected, feel a bit down for a while and then move on, but if he's still sulking after a period of years is he really that much of a great loss.

Guys can be sensitive. This one is obviously sensitive about the rejection a few years back.

If you want to clear the air with him then let him why you rejected him then. Maybe that will help him too.

And who says there ISN'T a second chance to find out "what could have been?" "or what may come?"

if you still feel that way.

jessica04 agony auntYes, guys are very sensitive. I once broke up with a rebound guy to get back with my ex in H.S. and he still hasn't really forgiven me, and its been 6 years.

Of course, I feel awful for stringing him around, and I can't believe I did such a thing. Be careful with boys, it takes a lot for them to openly admit they like a gal just because the threat of rejection is so big and ego-crushing.

they most certainly take it to heart

i had a girl who liked me for a period of time. i asked her out but she didnt respond till the next day when i texted her. she refused causing me to go through massive amounts of sadness because i really liked the girl
