Exactly!! Good news, you found out he wasn't worthy of your time and energy, bad news- he missed out on a treasure!!

@A MyBCTeam Member: Aww I'm sorry that happened. But the fault lies with him, not with you! He actually did you a favour - if he is so shallow as to reject you over a missing boob then he's not worth your time and energy anyway. Dont settle for anything less than being treated like the warrior Queen you are! πŸ’•πŸŒ»πŸ¦„πŸ‘

Thank you, Melissa and Virginia. I still feel sad but time will heal. Your comments are definitely helpful.

This is so helpful, thank you! I was recently rejected by someone because of the mastectomy, but now I have better perspective on that and feel more confident about going forward. :)
