Auto-rejection is when a woman rejects the advances of a man, because she thinks he is unattainable for a serious relationship. This may be because she thinks the man is of "too high value" or does not show enough interest in her.
When the stud with a doctoral degree in Mathematics courted for Marie, the young peasant girl, she dismissed his advances due to auto-rejection.

Get the auto-rejection mug.Fear of rejection is the fear of unacceptance. This refers to the fear that their personality or appearance will not be accepted or made fun of.
This can lead to forms of social anxiety or supposed awkwardness. Due to this fear of rejection, conversations with this person can be inhibited.

"I'm gonna go talk to Bob today and see if we can be friends... Oh, but he's already friends with Benny. What if he doesn't like me? What if I say something stupid? He'll probably hate me anyway. I won't talk to him. I have a bad fear of rejection." - thoughts of Tyler

1) Bobby the Stud took the rejection in his stride, and oh, what a proud stride it is!
2) Woe, woe it is. The long lasting pain builds up inside, columinating never, always building. Like an endless wall the pain builds, blocking you from what you want, something you will never have, and will never lose again...
3) Ummmm.... "Eeeemo, eeeemo, EEEEEEEEMMMOOOOOO, I got rejected! Boo hoo, sooob soob, whimper, sniffle, shout! Screeeeeaaaaaaaammmmmm!" etc...

Get the Rejection mug.When a guy or girl likes somebody, and they're serious about trying to get with that person. So they talk to them, try to make them laugh, spend as much time with them as possible. Their intention usually is to make friends with that person until they build the confidence to ask them out.
What's sad about a self-rejection is, that person loses the confidence to ask them out (or they discover or think they're already going out with someone and feel there's no point in trying to build-up a future relationship). Basically they're scared of rejection.
This person can never know that they were liked, going to be asked-out, so it's a real downer when they find out somebody gave up on trying to get with them (especially if it's a pretty depressed person)
Self-rejections usually occur in low confident/self-esteem teens during their middle/high school years. Usually self-rejections hurt more than actual rejections from the person, because you feel that maybe, they would say yes. You didn't even give yourself a chance.
A self-rejection is not seeing someone in the hallway, thinking they're cute, and not talking to them and giving up. You actually try to build up a friendship with that person and give up.
A self-rejection is also not, asking out a someone, still liking someone, maybe asking them out again, and giving up. Because with this, you built up the courage to ask to ask them out.
Even though the person you were trying to ask out, didn't say "no" (you didn't ask them out period), but you say "_______ self-rejected me", which basically means you gave up on that person.
After so many self-rejections this person may feel they're never going to find somebody. The best advice for that person is to try to build them up and make them a confident being, and they might ask that person out and be happy!

EXAMPLE OF SELF-REJECTIONS:
Tony was talking to Alicia all month. He couldn't get her out of his head! He really liked her. Until one day he stopped talking to her, and she didn't know why. She knew about how he was a pretty un-confident person, so she wasn't suprised when she found out she self-rejected him.
NOT A SELF-REJECTION:
I see him walk by every day before study hall, he's so cute, but I should probably stop and try to get someone else.
AND
Roy asked her out last year, even though she did like him, she had a boyfriend. He was confident enough to ask her out again, even though this time she had a different boyfriend. He gave up and is just friends with her now.
