Men, how do you take rejection? (women)

I have always been honest with them so I don't think I deserve being insulted...I never lead people on, it's just simply that there's no chemistry and that's it. The latest one had me laughing quite a bit. He seemed normal, albeit maybe a bit strange and mysterious, but when I told him I couldn't continue seeing him and gave him my reason, he went on about how he was a highly successful and respectable person in "x" field and had several connections in that same field and that I missed out on a golden chance to be with a very wealthy person, etc. I had to laugh at that. Why can't people just accept defeat and humbly move on? What happened to having some self-respect?

My thought is do women react in the same way as men when rejected? I would say yeah

No you would not be. A liar would be something like you tell her you are 5'8" online and meet her and then she finds out you are 5'6.

Um, I think that makes me a liar.

"Oh, you told me you were 5'8, I see you are actually 5'6. Why did you lie?"

Tell us your stories .

I would never react in that way, I would accept it and move on (though I would be hurt, I'm not gonna lie).

I don't particularly get offended or upset when I get rejected. Its only happened a handful of times but with that being said I'm extremely selective as to who I approach. If they are not interested I keep it moving. No sweat

If they make some that fits my calves, some knee-high socks...

Just a word of caution: you might want to stay clear of the hooker pumps. Most women think they make you look trashy.
