No, I’m sorry I can’t really empathize, but I also had no intention to cheapen the pain of rejection for romance in any way; it’s a sucky feeling, and most likely the worst kind of rejection you could face. But my point was suggesting to an anon, who thought there couldn’t be character development and less loneliness for Fizzle from the rejection, on how there actually could be.
 
I don’t know why the actual feeling of rejection had to be the one point taken from my initial comment when it wasn’t even about that. I mentioned it in the first place to show that yes, politely or not, it still hurts, but I think it’s gonna most likely get much better for him in the long run. (I’m no psychic; it really could get worse. This is just my opinion, not a stone-cold fact)

So yea you don’t know.

@Background Pony #F47D  
I already mentioned the “it still hurts” part (.) . The polite part comes from Garble trying his darn hardest to let Fizzle down gently. Impossible task or not, I think it’s a real effort to preserve their friendship that should be commended. Besides, that wasn’t even the point of my comment, it was about explaining to a BG pony how you could get positive character development and less loneliness from a rejected Fizzle.
 
And no, I have never been “politely” rejected because I’ve never had anything to be rejected in the first place; I’m asexual and even kinda aromantic.
 
_{I’m still a die-hard equal-opportunity shipper though.}

@Mirth  
Ever been “politely” rejected? Still hurts like a motherfucker.

You could still get character development out of this easily. Fizzle’s finally confessed to Garble, and got politely rejected. So while it still hurts, it means two, good things for him:  
One, Fizzle knows without a doubt now his feelings won’t get returned, so he can finally give up on Garble and possibly try pining for someone else he might actually have a chance with.  
And two, Fizzle now knows someone who both knows & accepts him for who he is (even if it is his crush), so Fizzle will have someone he can be open with and finally start accepting himself a little more. So, yeah, he should definitely be feeling less lonely in the future, if the blog decides to go this route.

It’s a shame really. Not how this ended, but we could have had character development and a not-so-lonely Fizzle for once.

Garble, surprisingly not a dick. Well-done.

hugs fixes everything rigtt.

c’mon garble. Ain’t nothin wrong with a little bro hug bunp.

Aw, a reassuring hug.
