Re: jection
Everyone knows what AA is, right?

Hey, one thing that getting turned down teaches me is that it’s survivable.
You’re still walking, talking, and breathing, right?
Also, if you can do half a dozen in a row and keep asking, that shows grit.
I hope that the women who’ve turned you down did so graciously. So few women seem to know how to do that, or they choose not to.
