You should try to move on. Clearly the person is not interested at the moment and trying to do anything more about persuading them may just turn them further away. If you are trying to persuade this person into the relationship it is probably not gonna work and you should just leave it alone and who knows what may happen. :)
Peace & Love!!!

The only thing you can really do is move on. Distract yourself with activities and friends for a while and know that rejection is just a part of life. Eventually you will find someone else you want to ask out. Until then, forget about the person who said no. They're a lost cause.

Rejection is normal, and we all face it at one point. If they do say no, just stay strong and positive. Say something like "Oh okay, well thanks for the honesty." You could say that you guys should be friends to just let the hurt of the rejection simmer down. You can also use humor too to make the situation less unbearable. Saying something like "Ha okay, now this is a little uncomfortable. Well thanks for telling the truth. Not a lot of guys out there are honest." Comedic relief, you'll feel less out of place if you do use a little humor.

Just remember that the last thing you want to do is hint that you're upset. It's not worth getting frustrated or hurt over. A lot of people try not to, but if you do it's normal and natural. But just think a lot of people have been in your shoes before with rejection and it's made them stronger. Even if they reject you it shows that you've got a ton of self confidence to even go up and approach the person, plus ask him out. Most people usually get shy.


Hope this helps you tons. :)

Most people will suffer rejection at some point in their life.
[I'm guessing you mean face to face]
Imagine being the other person. It takes alot of honesty and courage to just say no and not beat around the bush. That's how I think of it anyway. So if I ever get into that position, I'd say "that's fine. and thankyou for being honest with me." Or something along those lines.
It's important to remain cool and calm.
Rejection is a lesson in life. So if if happens to you, you become wiser and learn from experiences.

act totally confident. i read in a magazine, miley cyrus asked out cody linsly and she was rejected. all she did was kept her head high and laughed. just dont act heart broken. dont under estimate yourself, you never know what he may say. but just to make sure, ask a friend to talk to one of his friends about who he likes. if you dont feel cofortable, then just ask him, if he does reject you *like a said before* remain confident. sorry if this is confusing. good luck, i hope everything works out[=

If you ask some one out, and you REALLY like them then you just say something like "Ok, well maybe we could be friends" That's what i'd do. And maybe if you start hanging out more, the person may start to like you. And you might be surprised and get asked out by them. Good luck ;)

You find a way to move on, dear. If they reject you, c'est la vie. It's bound to happen. Simply say "ok" and walk away. Find another fish in the sea.
