Just saw tonight's episode of "Blind Date," in which Jackie, the female WWE wrestler dumped her blind date, Josh, a lab technician (with a great bod). According to the subtext satire, it took her over 7 hours to reject him. One of the bubbles of wisdom over his head was, "you could have just said, 'no.' "

Personally, I do have difficulty giving rejection to people (regardless of the type of relationship), unless it's in the middle of a really bad argument (screaming, ranting, raving, etc.) when there are no holds-barred. As a woman, I think this is typical for myself and that guys are usually a bit more direct (but not absolute). It may be a cultural issue though (I've learned the screaming, etc. from family).

How have you heard or felt rejection, either directly or from chatting from friends?

P.S. There seems to be a little series on WWE female wrestlers on "Blind Date." Any guys interested in dating a woman stronger and bigger than he is? :-)
