Reframe A Dating App Rejection Into Something Useful

Help me reframe how I'm thinking about a dating app rejection or being left on read. Read what happened below, then give me three more accurate, less catastrophic ways to interpret it, and one thing worth actually paying attention to if the pattern keeps happening. Keep the tone matter of fact, not falsely cheerful.
