How many of you have experienced some form of rejection at one time or another? If this applies to you then you know it doesn’t feel good to be rejected when all you really want is to be accepted. I have experienced many forms of rejection, from people, trying to fit in and just not really reaching the level of acceptance I really wanted. Rejection can really do a number on one’s self-esteem. Because of the fear of being rejected I found myself falling into the people pleasing pattern (pleasing others even if I hurt myself to do it).
