Feeling Rejected or Ignored |
 |
You feel you have been rejected with the ending of your relationship.
You have a noticed pattern of rejection in your relationships. Your partner is ignoring you and hurting you with their behaviour. |
 |
Feeling rejected is a very painful feeling and can take away your confidence. This can make it hard to continue with your life successfully.
It comes about because you have given too much power to your partner and become dependent on them for your happiness. If they leave you, you might decide that they did this because there is something wrong with you. This is always a mistake because it ignores the fact that your partner has their own insecurities and emotional issues. If you have a pattern of feeling rejected you need to look to see if you are subconsciously rejecting yourself (feeling unworthy of love).

Here are three ways to recover from feelings of rejection: 1. Remember that your natural state is one of love and high self-esteem. You do not need anybody to make you happy or give you love because you are abundant in it yourself. 2. Work to understand and heal any insecurities that are damaging your self-esteem. As you do this you will feel much less dependent on your partner or other people. 3. If your partner left you in a hurtful way, or is ignoring you, realise that they must be in pain to behave like this - in other words they have their own emotional issues and are struggling with these. Ultimately, nobody can make you feel anything, and this includes rejection. You can choose to be happy even if your partner behaves badly.
