Self-Esteem In Spite of Rejection

A really hot girl shot me down today. I loved it. It was thrilling. It doesn’t happen all that often, so it was refreshing. Obviously I would rather her say yes, but it’s nice to know I can walk up to a random girl and ask her to dinner. It’s also nice to know that she can say "no" the way she did. That might be confusing to some so let me explain.
Some girls seem to think it is mean to tell a guy right off that they don’t want to go out with him. In their minds maybe they think they should really give him a chance (even though in the long run they basically never do). Maybe they think they are being nice by not saying no, but it is actually the crueler course. If a girl tells a guy maybe, but knows in her head that it’s really a "no," then she is leading him on. She tells him there is a possibility, but there really isn’t. Yes, that is definitely a form of leading someone on. Clearly this is the coward’s way out because she can’t handle "hurting" him. In the end it will only hurt the guy even more. (If you’re thinking right now, well, sometimes it really is a maybe; you’re probably lying to make yourself feel better.)
If a guy is bold enough to ask a girl outright if she wants to go out then the girl should realize that that guy has the self-esteem to get rejected. If a guy doesn’t have the self-esteem to get rejected then he shouldn’t be asking a girl outright if they want to go out. Throughout time the guy will learn that or will adapt and will gain the self-esteem through enough rejections – what a nice paradox ☺
In conclusion:
Guys: if you can’t handle rejection, don’t ask a girl out. If you do ask and get rejected though, learn from it. You have to realize that not everyone on this planet is compatible with you. In fact not many people at all will work really well with one another. Realize this and rejection will no longer matter because through rejection you’re only narrowing your search. There are a lot of people out there so narrowing your search is essential.
Girls: if you don’t want to seem like a "demon woman", then say "no" when you know the answer really is a no.
