Quotes About Rejection

THE MEN YOU HAVE LOVED OR THOSE WHO REFUSED TO LOVE YOU

I'm in love, he said hoarsely. With someone else. That's why. Qhuinn (Lover Unleashed)

I'm proud of you, and I love you, Blay said yet again, that old, familiar voice cutting through all of those years of rejection and judgement, giving him not just a rope of acceptance to hang onto, but a flesh-and-blood hand to lead him out of the darkness of his past... And into a future that didn't require lies or excises, because of what he was, and what they were, was both extraordinary--and nothing out of the ordinary. Love, after all, was universal.

Fuck me sideways." "Thanks, but you're just not my type." "You're sure." "I'm sure men are my type, but if I went for women, I'd do you.

No, yo ya estoy casada, gracias –le dije–. Búscate una mujer más apropiada que yo, alguien que te haga salir de ti mismo.

I was all a mistake! There was a black fish swimming among all those white fish and that black fish was chosen to be me. I was a sister to none of them, I was ill chance itself, I was a shark, an infant black shark. Why did you not recognize it and cut its throat? What kind of merciful father were you who never cared for me but sent me out into the world a monster? Crush me, devour me, annihilate me before it is too late! Wipe me clean...

Uh-huh, right. Let me count all the ways you and I aren't going there.

To be denied was like getting shut out of a Public Park.

The rejection didn't faze him. Fine. If I can't have you, then you do the taking. Have all of me, part of me, a small piece, whatever you want. Just please, have something.

Qhuinn looked at each of the hoods again. How ironic, he thought. Nearly two years ago, an Honor Guard of black robes had been sent to him to make sure he knew his family didn't want him. And now, here these males were, come to draw him into a different kind of fold-- that was every bit as strong as that of blood.

And for all he had learned to bandage himself up on the outside, the wound remained just as bad and deep as the moment it had been made - when it became obvious that the one male he wanted above all others was never, ever going to be with him.

No, fuck that shit. That pair of assholes can fuck right off.

I didn't want you, I've never wanted you—and don't get it twisted. I'm not jealous, I'm fucking disgusted. I'm in love with a male of worth and I had to be with you because I needed an incubator for my son and my daughter. That and the fact you threw yourself at me in your needing was the only reason I was ever with you." Layla

Don't disappointment me, son." Yeah, fuck you, daddy. O

It sucked when you cared about someone and they didn't return your feelings..

Try not to come back. Oh, I'll be back, but it'll be to ask you out. Give it up, jock. It's not going to happen. We'll see.

Oh, honey. I don't want him.

Don't touch me, I'm full of snakes.

Aw I don't wanta go to no such thing, I just wanta drink in alleys.'... But you'll miss all that, just for some old wine.' There's wisdom in wine, goddam it!' I yelled. 'Have a shot!
