Just love yourself and be content with who you are. Be confident and go after the things you want...and do it for YOURSELF.
If you let others validate you, you will never be happy because people will just jerk you around...especially at your age.

Dont take everthing so seriously, life comes at you fast and something good is just around the corner. Rejection and hurt come every once and a will but look at the bright side. Those are just something that your gonna have to deal with.

I've always been afraid to ask myself that question, but I suppose the way I deal with protecting myself emotionally is by not letting anyone in my full trust, not dating, constantly being cynical and suspicious of others, and so on. It kind of sucks, but I live with it.

You could become a hermit. If that is not acceptable, try making friends and getting to know a woman better before getting into a relationship- and remember that trust is earned bit by bit over time and not awarded on sleeping together.

Rejection and hurt in life help us refine and define WHO WE ARE!! AND what we want to do in life; who we want IN our lives and what life is all about!! THAT's called LIVING!!
