Rejection #22
Well, let me take a break from these online ones and to tell you about an offline one. It was in one of the first sushi restaurants in China. There was a waitress which I liked. I was a regular visitor and she knew me. I liked her because she looked quiet, gentle and polite. Also she was my type -- slim, a bit darker than others and shorter, plus she had a pretty face (I'd say at least 7/10).
So one day I invited her to meet up. And she accepted my invitation. She asked me if she may come with a female friend. I dislike it but because this was a girl I really liked I didn't want to blow up my chance with her and I agreed. Maybe it was a mistake but I was afraid I'd blown my chance if I refuse (what if she said "Then I am not coming." or "Okay, next time..." and never comes back because she is thinking that I am a dangerous type.) And then we met, I paid everything in another restaurant, we had honest talk, she and her friend (some average Becky, maybe a classmate or some ex-colleague, almost the same age) also asked some questions. I was frank -- I'm having a good salary (that time it was 5 times better than their salaries), but I haven't own house (I'm renting)... Well, I thought everything is going smoothly but... never met her again. She didn't like my answers or maybe her friend told her "Nah, he's too poor for you, you need a better one." or "He's a foreigner, he's going to leave you soon, find a local guy!"... there are many possible scenarios what happened in fact and I'll never know. But it was a sad rejection.
That's it.
