—shidduch rejection,–
Getting rejected is part of dating. While sometimes painful, if you prepared for it beforehand, it’s easier to get over it. I’m not saying that you should go into a date with the mindset of it not working out. Just have in mind that if the other person says no, you could rest assured that he/she was not your bashert, and be thankful you didn’t have to make that decision. Of course it’s easier said then done. Maybe the fact that many of your siblings got engaged to the first person gave you higher expectations and therefore it was harder for you to get over the rejection, but marrying the first person is not the norm, no matter how much you look into people. What you are experiencing is completely normal–almost everyone goes through this. Just daven that Hashem should give you clarity in shidduchim and that you find your bashert quickly!!
