I've learned to deal with rejection letters, but it's just not right to open one and get a papercut.
While still 24, when I broke the news of the year to my father that I had fallen in love with this 48 year old beautiful woman, dismissively he responded, "Isn't one mom sufficient?"
It was only when she recoiled with horror in her eyes that I realized how completely I had misread her signals.
My only crush in the seventh grade rejected me in an overkill fashion, "I'm like the frog on the lily pad, and you are like the dirt at the bottom of the lake," he said.
And after I confessed my love for him, he stated that he was flattered and we changed the subject.
