If the guy did not like you for some reason, let it go. You need to act mature at such a time and accept that there must be some sane reason behind it. Carry yourself with utmost dignity, and even if it affects you, at least do not let it show on your face or in your behaviour.

#2. It is okay to feel bad and cry out loud

Keeping your tears pent up will only make you more miserable. Let it all flow out. It is okay to feel hurt and to cry your guts out when you feel like. Moreover, you will feel more relieved and lighter once you do so!

#3. Update your online profile

If you feel that the cause of the rejection was an old online profile with a picture that is even older than your profile date, get on the Internet right away and update all your details. People need to see the real you and not the five years older version of you.

Talking about your sorrows, miseries and griefs to your near and dear loved ones can be therapeutic at this time.

#5. Think about the positive side
