35 What Do You Say To The Girl Who Just Rejected You?

Stephen marched on over like a man possessed. His line was still running through his head, in the exact wording he gave to Miguel earlier. Abby was just standing their at customer service, unoccupied. He could do this. He had to do this.

She looked up, just as he made it to the front counter. "Hey, what's up?"

Now or never.

"IthinkyouregorgeousandIwanttogotothemovies," Stephen blurted out in lightening fast speed.

"Wait, what?" She blinked, the smile dropping from her face. "I didn't catch like any of that."

"Uhhhh," Stephen panicked, trying to remember the order of the phrasing. It was easy to remember before he had Abby's stunning brown eyes on him.

"I just, um, wanted to say that I think. Well, I think you're really cute. I mean, pretty. Gorgeous even, really. And I want to know if you would, I mean, only if you want to, like go out sometime? Like the movies or something?" Stephen stammered out a choppy line, that sounded much better in his head than being spoken.

"Oh!" Abby said, hearing his full words, and wearing a look of surprise on her face. While the surprise was a good sign, it soon dropped to an awkward expression rather quickly.

"Well, thank you, I guess," she said finally, chewing on her lower lip, and not quite managing to look him in the eye.

"You're welcome, of course," replied Stephen, waiting on his reply.

"I guess, the truth is," started Abby, still fiddling with her lip, "I don't think that's a good idea."

Stephen's heart dropped, "Oh, okay. Why?"

She finally looked up to him, meeting his gaze. Where there had previously been some warmth and a hint of smile, was now cold steel, "I just don't think of you like that, Stephen. I mean, we're friends, that's all. That's all we are is friends."

"Oh," replied Stephen, crestfallen. His shoulders began to slump, hearing the sting of rejection.

"I'm sorry. I just don't want anything to change, like that, at all. Let's just stay friends," Abby offered, but with none of the sincerity of their earlier interactions.

"Yeah, okay," replied Stephen, not knowing what else to say. What do you say to the girl who just rejected you? Even if it was a rejection, she still let him down easy. It's not like he could just get angry with her.

"I'm sorry," she said finally.

"It's okay. I'll see you around," he replied, beginning to retreat back to his aisle.
