+1 yYes. Rather an unpleasant way of of taking rejection.
Ultimately you're trying to involve yourself in someone else's life and then being bitter if they don't like the idea of that.
Only makes the person feel confident in rejecting you, rather than maybe doubting the decision and maybe changing their mind later.50 Reply

Not arrogant, just exceptionally stupid and insecure.

It depends. I've said that once. Maybe out of frustration. With my long term partner. Things just gotten cold at the end.. When youve given everything you can to the relationship. Try to make him/her see your worth and nothing is working. Yet you keep on holding on, hoping that one day he/she will get the message and realise how good he/she has it.. One day, i got tired of giving and not receiving anything back. Investing in something and not getting any results, even the tiniest bit. So I asked him, "i got so much to offer you, im willing to offer you my world, what do you have to offer me?" He was speechless.
We broke up in the end, cause i didn't see him changing. He wasn't scared to lose me anymore. I told him, "ive always been scared of losing you. Thats why i never gave up on us even when you kept on pushing me away. Now that i think about it, im losing someone who doesn't care about me, but you're losing someone who loved you unconditionally. Its not my loss anymore."00 Reply
+1 yBro, say what you want. Don't listen to anybody here. You are who you are. If you want to say it, you have to have your reasons to do it. I can tell for myself sometimes you need to say things like those and it's perfectly fine. She'll take it badly, but as one woman said here 'There is a lot of fishes in the sea'. Don't feel insecure, the only ones that are insecure are basically the people who say that makes you insecure. If you are insecure, you'll feel it. Still I would recommend to move on, forget her. She lost you.

30 Reply It is better to say nothing, walk away and not approach her again.
More than one approach can become evidence to sustain a sexual harassment complaint.
In Britain and France, even one approach can result in an Orwellian thought-crime charge that will destroy a man’s life.
If you want to survive, walk away from women and go MGTOW monk.10 ReplyIt's not as someone who's been on both sides I see it as ture, it is a lost on each persons side not just the girls. She might have had a great relationship with him but unfortunately she didn't feel the same so yes in a way it is a loss and that guys just showing he's not weak and it won't crush his pride.

Asker+1 yInteresting how?
Not really. Especially if she didn't give you a fair shot and you aren't a writhing piece of garbage (which you likely aren't). A lot of the time I get rejected out of hand and I don't really feel like I was given a chance. I think what you said is perfectly reasonable in most circumstances.

Also it's worth noting how most of the responses from women here are saying something to the effect of "It's not the worst thing, but it's an unnecessary comment". Chances are they don't get how frustrating it is to be turned down 2/10 times you ask a girl out. They're probably used to guys taking rejections badly, but I think they're unable to truly empathize with us on this. If the worst thing you do in reaction to being rejected is say "it's your loss" you've handled it like a champ. Pat yourself on the back and get on with it. If you got badly injured no one would tell you to stop whining and walk it off. Getting rejected hurts. A lot. Anyone who tells you you're out of line if you aren't polite under those conditions can fuck off as far as I'm concerned.
Anonymous(30-35)+1 yNot at all. If someone doesn’t want to invest in you then that’s their loss. If you know what you can offer and the type of person you are and think highly of yourself yet someone else doesn’t see that then it’s truly their loss. Not rude, honest.
20 Reply2K opinions shared on Dating topic. I don’t think it reads as just cocky, more like flat out narcissistic. If a guy said that to me after I’d rejected him, it would basically confirm that I don’t think he’s right for me.

Asker+1 yHow is it narcissistic? I accepted it & moved on. I didn't let it bother me, but if she can't see my worth, then oh well, her loss. Next
- +1 y
It’s narcissistic because you can’t accept the fact that she’s not into you like that, and you want to twist it and make it seem like she’s still losing something important. When in reality you probably never would have worked out (due to her disinterest) and therefore nobody is ”losing” anything. It’s not about ”not seeing your worth”, she might think you’re a good guy, but she’s just not attracted to you like that. Nobody can force having feelings for someone, and pushing this narrative that she just made the wrong choice because you’re THAT awesome... wellp, just comes off as narcissistic. You don’t know what she’s thinking or feeling, so acting like you know better than her is very selfish and narrow-minded.
Asker+1 yI did accept it & moved on. I don't it's narcissistic. If she can't see something good in front of her, it's all good. Eventually i know i'll find a girl who is
- +1 y
Again, like I said, this ISN'T about her "not seeing something good in front of her". She might have very well acknowledged your good qualities but decided against accepting your offer because she didn't find you attractive (physically or personality-wise). You insisting that it's her loss and that you're "all that" does point to narcissistic tendencies. It's like you can't even fathom that someone just doesn't want you like that. No matter how "good" you think you are, some people just won't be interested in you. And that's the cold truth. Saying "your loss" hints at the fact that you're too delusional to believe that cold truth. If you truly accepted it and moved on, it wouldn't have even crossed your mind to let out that "your loss" jab, nor would you have come on here looking for validation.
Asker+1 yI did accept it though. Why is it such a big deal to say that? And i don't dwell on the fact she wasn't interested. I said what i said & moved on
Asker+1 yDebating can be fun
1.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. Say this instead "Ok. Good luck with life." that will say something similar in a indirect way also some other thing's without downgrading yourself.
Or just say "Okay!", it will say you have already moved on if you move on directly after.
Everything has to do with how you present it and how the other one are but you can't take responsibility for the other one in the first place 😉10 Reply

+1 yNo, it's not rude or arrogant. You didn't grovel. A good thing to say to a girl who rejects you is "I would never be friends with you", She'll ask "Why
not? " And be shocked that you said this. Then you say, "It's no what I want. So its not going to happen". She won't know whether to shit or go blind !04 Reply- +1 y

No need to judge what works and what not for someone.
Simply move on gracefully. At least she didn't lead you on.00 ReplyMeh, they rejected you might as well sting em back before you move on.
Most women are completely uncaring about the feelings of men who approach them, why should we be caring of them?
Treat people how they treat you in my opinion.10 ReplyNo not really, I mean dude being rejected sucks and; when your open and exposed then someone rejects you, you kinda just say things. Like my friend asked a girl out and she said "sorry. I have a boyfriend" and he said "me too" right away. It's not because he's interested in guys its because during moments like that our emotions take more control than our brain.
10 ReplyI wouldn't call that arrogance, but it can very possibly be perceived as you getting butthurt. It shouldn't be anything to over think about, but if you ask me, i would say you should just tell her have a nice day, then walk away. Because if she's not interested, then you could say anything and it probably wouldn't change her mind right then and there. Its better to just be friendly and move on.

No I know you didn’t say it because you were hurt I think you said it because it was a self explanatory comment and you generally meant it, but some people would think you’re saying it because you felt offended or whatever. People are retards if they think you’re narcissistic for a comment like that.
