I certainly didn't take it that way, but I do believe the "lingering" nature of these new types of friendships has changed the nature of rejection; or forced things that didn't have a rejection component before to now have one.

And I agree with your point of we have a lot more connections now and, hence, a lot more "micro rejections".

As someone with actual rejection sensitivity (ADHD), I know exactly what you mean.
