| ==Description== | | ==Description== |
| [[Social]] '''rejection''' occurs when an [[individual]] is deliberately excluded from a inter[[personal]] [[relationship]] or social relation. The [[topic]] includes both interpersonal rejection (or [[peer]] rejection) and [[romantic]] rejection. A [[person]] can be rejected on an [[individual]] basis or by an entire [[group]] of people. Furthermore, rejection can be either [[active]], by bullying, teasing, or ridiculing, or [[passive]], by ignoring a person, or giving the "[[silent]] treatment." The [[experience]] of being rejected is [[subjective]] for the recipient, and it can be [[perceived]] when it is not actually present. | | [[Social]] '''rejection''' occurs when an [[individual]] is deliberately excluded from a inter[[personal]] [[relationship]] or social relation.

| Although [[humans]] are [[social]] [[beings]], some level of rejection is an inevitable part of life. Nevertheless, rejection can become a [[problem]] when it is prolonged or [[consistent]], when the [[relationship]] is important, or when the [[individual]] is highly [[sensitive]] to rejection. Rejection by an entire [[group]] of people can have especially [[negative]] [[effects]], particularly when it results in [[social]] [[isolation]]. | | Although [[humans]] are [[social]] [[beings]], some level of rejection is an inevitable part of life.
