Taking the L and Keeping it moving is not easy

[flea]

Dont take the L as a loss... take it as a lesson

Seriously. I mean just look at this little goof. He was born hideous but the way he posts you'd think he was a cotdamn young frank gifford or some shyt

 

[KOOL-AID]

yall call these Ls, smh.... @General Mills I apologize for this disrespect my brotha, they dnt know the true feeling of an L

 

[mcdivit85]

That's a really good idea. Thank you
@mcdivit85 yeah I have a lot to learn and experience but half of those scenarios don't apply since I am not about to let some random "smash" lol

I feel you, but I wasn't referring to a "random" though. My examples are dealing with men you're with or have feelings for and how its not just as simple as a woman not having to face rejection. Women get rejected differently than men, but I would say that the rejection is harsher and more devastating in some ways. Women have self-esteem issues for a reason.

The examples I gave are real life examples that many women go through. Hell, I've done most of those things I mentioned and those chicks weren't "random"....they were chicks I was in relationships with....or chicks who wanted to be in a relationship. And I know some dudes who've done worse.

I'm just saying that you may want to temper the female ego thing that makes some women think their above getting played like a violin. Where do you think these bitter, "n#ggas aint sh#t" women come from? They're not in the world by happenstance.

Peace

@mcdivit85 I don't think that's an L I could take, if my husband cheated on me I'd probably stab him or bankrupt him or stab him and then bankrupt him or the other way around, either way that a$$hole is getting scathed.

it is when you take a lot of Ls .

The more L's you take the better you get at keeping it moving.

I am a female therefore taking the L in real life only happens with jobs and .... situations like this I suppose.


I watched a YouTube video which advised women to hit on men just to get used to taking the L so they become immune. That seems like terrible advice

What if it works the other way and every guy accepts? Then it just builds your confidence up to be humiliated even more|

I get what you're saying sometimes shyt just eats away at you. In time it passes, just remember not to do anything stupid you may regret in the meantime though

Oh goodness.... with this attitude, life could turn out a lot more difficult than you had hoped.

What makes you say that?

Damn, some dude is going to get that work then because getting played is kinda inevitable. Let us pray for that future dude.

Thinking your immune from anything in life. Especially using that fact along with 'just because you're a female'. If you have that attitude, when life kicks you in the ass you're going to be blindsided and not know how to deal, or worse, blame things on everything/everyone else instead of looking within (which is the only way to really come out on top).

From the OP, it sounds like you have a great deal of pride that will only stress you out when people point out your mistakes. You have to be able to admit when you make them. This holds true with school, work, relationships (with friends or s/o) and many other situations.

I didn't say I was immune and the female comment was in response to guys saying they're used to taking L's from women. I don't approach guys like that so I can't relate to that specifically.

I am proud and taking L's does come naturally to me hence why I made this thread, it's hard. But you will notice I am taking it and not writing an insulting emotional e-mail after not getting my way. I can take it but I don't have to like it.

 

[Dirty Mcdrawz]

Those lingering L's are the worst. The anxiety of not knowing what is going to happen is

 

[Rawtid]

Best lesson you can learn in life is to not give a shyt. And hold up, you were arguing about getting an A?

fukking over achiever.

 

[WaveCapsByOscorp™]

How did the tone of the email originally start? Sometimes that can dictate how it ends. You still might have lost, but it wouldn't have seem so bad...

Can you please

It gets easier as you get older.
