I can't know if the rejection is worth it. If it hurts you, if you are in pain, it isn't worth it (imo- only). I don't do things that cause me pain. I get plenty of acceptance and validation in 3d. But for what it's worth I acquired my husband- a very unique and non-white bread person- by using all the feminine wiles I had at my disposal. You do not get the chance to choose the non-white bread if you are not honeylicious enough to make people love you and give you a choice whether to keep them or not. You don't know white bread immediately. People cloak themselves- at least a bit. You need to be nice, to get inside, to get underneath the social shell to see if you want them or not. If you don't want people you have the license to be anyway you want to be. But to be that way you either have to have all the people you want already or you truly do have to be happy to be a hermit. If you want to acquire new people you have to make certain compromises- again, just my opinion. People can learn to love the inside of you- but you have to sort of sneak up to that. You have to show them first what they want to see- and slowly, carefully, throw in bits they can gradually "accept" and maybe, if you are lucky, learn to love.
