Meanwhile, express your desire to reconsider this decision.

For example, if a cooperation opportunity is rejected, a more detailed cooperation plan or improvement suggestion can be proposed; If you have declined a personal invitation, you can propose a more suitable time or activity for both parties. Let the other party see your efforts and changes, as well as the value of continuing to interact or collaborate with them.

Don't rush for success, respect the other party's decision-making power. Meanwhile, express your willingness to wait and maintain a friendly relationship, regardless of the final outcome. This attitude can demonstrate your maturity and respect, increasing the likelihood of successful recovery.
