“You cannot get what you were trying to get,” basically, they say.
“Application denied.”
I’d thought I’d be approved, so… punch in the gut.
“You’ve wasted our time,” they say.
Disappointment and emotional upset.
Sucker punch. Damage. Sux. Serious.
Bitter frustration.
Painful moment.

That is the worst – when you expect approval and don’t get it. Gut punch, indeed! Thank you for sharing this.
