Much like approaching someone in a bar, dating apps leave you vulnerable to all sorts of rejection. Whether the person you've matched with straight-up ignores your messages, or they reply politely telling you that they're not interested, unfortunately, it's all part of the dating game. One girl on Tinder, however, clearly doesn't understand the rules, and upon being explained to politely by a guy she had matched with that he had met someone else, she lost her mind and went totally berserk. Check out how calmly he manages the situation and how 

Being friend-zoned isn't something anyone takes well. I mean, it's rejection, so it makes sense, but, as one person put it, "Imagine thinking that being friend-zoned is worse than finding out someone you thought valued you as a whole person just wanted to f*ck you." When you put it like that, complaining about being friend-zoned seems a little ridiculous. On that note, here's a list of tweets and posts that elaborate on just how ludicrous of a concept it is, and how people need to stop using that term.

Rejection is a hard pill for anyone to swallow, but it is an inevitable part of the dating game. It helps to have a thick skin and a lot of resilience to keep putting yourself out there and accept that not everyone will like you. The key to rejection is taking it gracefully, wishing the other person all the best, and moving on. But unfortunately, not everyone can do that; some people react horribly to rejection and lash out at the person who rejected them. Together with The Single Society, we bring you 14 times men reacted terribly to rejection, and they are truly shocking. Scroll through and be amazed (or not) at the fragility of these male egos!

Having a crush can be a beautiful thing - if they like you back. But if the object of your affection doesn't return the love, you can be left with crushing disappointment, a blow to your ego, and possible heartbreak. Rejection is a difficult, albeit inevitable pill to swallow in life, but especially when it comes to dating. The trick is to know when you've been served that pill and how to walk away gracefully. Otherwise, you look like a desperate creep. A Reddit thread has asked guys for the moments that made them realize, "this girl is definitely not into me," and the responses are painful to read. I'm not sure whether all these girls are nasty individuals, or the guys didn't get previous hints to back off, resulting in drastic rejection measures. What do you think?

Rejection may be funny but will always sting like a bee! 

If anyone has ever gone through any sort or rejection, well one thing is for sure... you aren't alone!
