Why do guys prefer rejection over someone dating them out of compassion?

Anonymous
Several men complain about getting rejected. Yet, if a woman accepts him and dates him out of pity, he wished he would've gotten rejected instead.

Why?

The woman that dated you out of compassion/pity at least said yes when you asked her out and is accepting you. That should be better than nothing.
