Rejection Backhand

When a person who offers a romantic gesture is rejected but quickly recovers by saying they only meant it as friends.

Man: Hey, I'd love to fly out to see you this weekend.
Woman: I'm sorry, I'm not interested and prefer to be single.
Man: Jeez, I only meant to catch up as friends, but if you don't want to see me..

He gave me the hard sell to go out with him but when I said no, he hit me with the rejection backhand.

Financial rejection

Being accepted to a high-priced university, but receiving $0 in aid, scholarships, etc.

I got in to BU, but the financial rejection letter of $0 aid money soon followed. Hooray for working your ass off for 12 years only to attend the shitty state school of your dreams!

First Rejection Syndrome

When someone gets rejected for the first time, all the other hookups that they have seem meaningless until they hookup with the person that rejects them.

Bro 1:Remember when that chick denied you?
Bro 2:Yeah it sucked. I knew I had to get with her at some point.
Bro 1:Classic first rejection syndrome.
