We can all agree that rejection sucks to be reject or reject someone (if you’re a good dude). In this video men’s style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of IAmAlphaM, AaronMarino, and Pete & Pedro says that you can reject someone as a friend, business associate, and romantic kind. Alpha is focusing on the romantic kind in this video.

Rejecting a Romantic Relationship

Foundation Principles
  1. Don’t lead anyone on – be upfront and honest to make everything easier
  2. Avoidance is not the same as respectfully rejecting someone – man up! It’s a hard conversation to have, but you’ll be glad you did it.

 

Four Steps
  1. Lead with a general compliment
  2. Let them know that you appreciate and are flattered by their interest
  3. Take responsibility by saying “I” and don’t beat around the bush – craft and create a reasonable response to have this step go over better. Alpha gives examples.
  4. Show appreciation and wish them well – add in a bit of reassurance

 

* With drunken hook-up, don’t be a repeat offender and go back for 2nds!
