Best way to cope with rejection when you're being avoided?

How do you cope with rejection when a guy won't even TELL you he doesn't want you in his life -- he just avoids you instead? No answers.. no reason... nothing. How do you get over that?? Oh... and he has severe bipolar -- so i really don't know what's happening. :-(
Answer:
I know that it would be hard to do. But the best thing you can do is start ignoring him. Avoid him at all costs and do not contact him. It would do more damage for him to wonder what you are out doing than to know you keep trying to get in touch with him.
Just forget about him. There will be someone that comes along.
Tell yourself you are better than sitting around waiting on someone who won't even show you the respect of communicating his feelings. My husband is bipolar and refuses to take meds. We're seperated because he tried to hurt me when I was 3 months pregnant. You are better than that and deserve more. Move on. Life's too short.
Persons who suffer from Bipolar disorder have difficulty relating to other people. They are often on strong medication to maintain and control the disorder. He may be rejecting you for the usual suspect reasons, i.e.: he doesn't like you, or the chemistry just isn't there, or he's rude. However, he might be avoiding you because he is afraid to start or try to maintain a relationship while he is suffering from this disorder.
Leave him alone. Since that is what he wants. Move on with your life with other people. When you run into him, be civil and pleasant, don't try to start a conversation, just be quick and move along. If he wants to have a friendship with you, the ball then is in his court. But don't wait around...move on. He can't help his disorder, but you can't fix this either. Just move on and try not to feel bad.
Tell him to kiss your grits. Don't let bipolar be his rationale for being rude. So many people have mental health issues, but still treat people appropriately.
