"It's Okay"

 I’ve been rejected so many times over the course of my life. And each time I generally tell people “it’s okay” or “I understand” or “don’t worry, I’m used to it.” But the truth is, it’s NOT "okay!" In fact, it’s far from okay. After being ignored countless times for so many reasons (most of which, to this day, I do not know), it has caused me to question what I am saying and/or doing wrong, to wonder what is wrong with me. It has begun to tear at the very fabric of my being.
