Do you know that rejection hurts men so much? Men can't take "No" for an answer. There was this man who kept hitting on me for a long time. During the initial period, the man gave my phone like 20 missed calls. I kept turning him down. One day the guy just called me and insulted me on the phone. When I bumped into the guy on the road, I even still tried to greet him. The guy just snubbed me. This guy never called me again. lol😅😅

I have been rejected many times, I just laugh it off. No hard feelings. Love is not by force o. Please grow up! 😅.
You have been rejected many times ?

Like you ask men out ?

Omo , na everyday I Dey see something for NL oo

She released her number to the guy before rejecting him cheesy

Maybe the guy was the one who rejected her and she got pained and came to nairaland to twist the story.
Exactly. She gave him her number first. Then spent months turning him down.That's not rejection that's attention farming.If you give man your number, you've already opened the door.If you didn't want him, you shouldn't have given it in the first place.She kept the attention going until he snapped. Then came online to play victim.
Women do this all the time.Give access, then complain about the attention. Don't give the number if you don't want the follow up

That is a lie, @bolded.
It's mostly men that do that.
Once a lady rejects them, they get so pained, they start stalking the lady, and wishing them bad, going by what I've read on this platform.

Heck! Men can stalk the ladies that rejected them even years later, to know what became of them.
Even after they (the men) are married with kids o.
(One on here even went as far back as some twenty something years later to know what became of a girl he couldn't even woo)


Unlike ladies, once a man they like comes along, they get so carried away, the others before him never existed.
Most men are the ones doing the toasting so it is expected that most of them wouldn't be able to handle rejection. If most women were doing the toasting then I guess most women wouldn't be able to handle rejection.

The same reason why separation hurts ladies so much...

Your mature response is commendable.


Then again, nobody can make you feel rejected without your permission.
They can only turn down your "toasting"

It is then left to you to respect yourself, and move on.

Those who insist (on chasing a particular person) and keep getting turned down are the ones who feel rejected.

It's not in a lady's place to go after/woo a man.
As a lady, it is best to keep your heart open, and allow the man that really likes you come for you.

Don't go liking any man in advance.

It is easier for a lady to eventually fall in love with a man that likes/loves her, than for a man to fall in love with a lady that first loves him.
For them to kindly turned me down Abi 😹😹☺️
You guys don't have two heads nah, una also needs to start toasting guys too for you people to know the amount of guts it takes to also be rejected by men 😅

You can't make your cake and have it at the same time.

Nonsense and ingredients

As you told him no and he ignored and snubbed you, did you see him setting up a thread or story time on any SM platform to talk about how painful it is, or you are projecting your own feeling to us?

Man has moved on and gotten a replacement and you are here crying over spilled milk.
if you go through my posts. I'm a writer so i love sharing my experiences

So you gave him your number to 'stop him from disturbing you.' Then spent months turning him down. How does that make sense?
If a man is harassing you on the road, you don't give him your number. You walk away. You enter a crowded place. You call for help.Giving your number doesn't stop harassment. It starts it. Now he has direct access to you.That's worse.You didn't give him your number to stop him. You gave it to him because you liked the attention.Then when the attention became too much, you played victim.
If a man is following you from Lagos to Ogun, that's a police case. Not a 'let me give him my number so he'll leave me alone' situation.Stop lying to yourself. You gave access. You got access. Own it

just learn this today. Someone giving you their number doesn't mean they like you

You're right. Giving a number doesn't automatically mean she likes you.But it does mean she opened the door.If you don't want a man, you don't give him access to you.If he's harassing you, you don't give him your number.You block, report, or walk away.If you give your number and then spend months turning him down, you're not being harassed.You're entertaining him.You can't give access and then complain about who walks through the door.

Giving your number doesn't mean you like him. But it does mean you invited him to try. Own that

Nah guy wey spend foolishly and probably no too knack well e go pain

Some muumuu guys still dey wey go spend anyhow but still no see kpekus and any other benefits from the lady.. nah the worst..

If I give a lady my money I hustle hard and take risk to make, I go make sure I fvckk her wella front and back.. e must be money I fit afford to loose.

nothing goes for nothing. lipsrsealed
This is where the problem is . Guys think nacking a girl is punishing for you giving her your money. Guy na them dey enjoy the fvck pass you. You just dey stress yourself,while she cum ,cum and cum again. Those sound she makes is not pain oga, na pleasure coutexy you..

The best thing is not to give them money. They fucking don't deserve it. Let them work for money.. Your type we have many of them becoming lazy today. Men give them money,give them food,give them shelter,and you will still stress yourself to make her cum..
