Nice illustration of how disproportionate feelings of being rejected can be, relative to what actually 'is' going on. I've been extremely sensitive to rejection all my life, so much so that the fear of rejection itself had, for many years, stopped me from expressing myself in the first place.
There are so many of humans crushed by the weight of rejection/perceived rejection. And feelings around rejection give rise to the impulse to justify one's existence and defend one's positions. It's exhausting.
