Ah we're just of different culture/POV. We Filipinos (especially the old school ones) are romantic idiots when it comes to that matter.
I can't seem to put it in my mind to love another when I'm still reeling from what happened. I'm afraid they'd end up as rebounds.
I have to disagree.
Filipinos I’ve known move on quickly too.
It’s not a cultural thing.
Well, either way it’s not something to be discussed on an open forum.
I will say this though, this isn’t telling you to look for someone else. This is about getting over it and accepting yourself including your own flaws. That is, realizing your own shortcomings and accepting that it’s fine to have them.
Not everyone will like you, sure, but the majority of people won’t hate you. Besides, you don’t want to be around those who don’t like you anyway.
Im just saying, sure you can continue to bring up that the girl rejected you. It doesn’t help you doing so unless you’re using it for reflection to figure out how to improve yourself.
The biggest obstacle to accepting one’s own flaws is that most of us don’t want to stand up and do something about it, there is a difference between saying “it’s my fault” in a polite manner and saying “it’s my fault and I gotta do some work.”
Anyway, hope you sort this out. I know this is self-depreciating humor but you’re a good guy despite that. Wish you could build up some self-esteem.
