ok...im asking as male behaviour confuses me somewhat in this respect... i wouldnt humiliate myself if i was rejected by a man by persistently hounding him and throwing myself at his feet... and i would respect his choice...as a single woman i am fairly regularly approached by guys and i find many of them are persistent at best if i reject them...(and i never give mixed signals actually im very plain and clear about these things)... and downright aggressive and unstable at worst...why do men behave like this..i wonder if some men see the answer 'no' as a challenge??? What about you girls? do you see this behaviour? or do you also see rejection as a challenge in this respect?...;0)

For me 'no' is a 'no' and I'm not very keen on being a pain in some-body's back.. Just like when I refuse to go out with somebody, when I reject somebody I don't want him to ask me out again. I don't find it flattering in any way.

There are some guys who decide who they're going to love for the rest of their life without asking her permission. Guys like this don't take no for an answer, because they already have your wedding planned out for them. Usually, a few good restraining orders get them to see the world as requiring a little more give and take.
There are some guys that bet on who they can get in bed, or whatever. Generally, they won't take no for an answer because that will cost them some amount of money or pride.
Most sensible guys (and there are only a very few of them around!) realize what no means, and don't waste their time on the hard to get girls. A wise perv once told me, there's only one thing to remember in the dating game, and that's "About it, or not About it." If the girl isn't about it, it's a waste of time. If the girl's about it, she better let you know, or she isn't getting anything else.

Well to me no is no But yes I know what you mean but the men that kept coming back actually got tired cause it was the same every day and some I wouldn't even look their way when they were talking. Ignoring a challenge is just like they don't stand a chance that gets to them than a no

No, I'd be too embarrassed to persist! I'd think that if I wasn't good enough for him the first time, why would I lower myself to try and chase him!! I dont' know what it is about some men. They end up looking like wallies and don't seem to have any self respect!

it's kind of a challenge, when a women reject's you, she expect's you to give up. this is why most men will give up, THEY ARE AFFRAID OF REJECTION. this is the main reason why so many people are single, men and women. if a women see's, you're not going to quit, she will have to change her approach. real men know how to get women. would you rather be chased or be the chaser. women love a real man as well.

They must be idiots or drunk. I find it hard to believe there's loads of men like this and if there are, then there must also be lots of women who are like it.
If I get rejected, I move on and forget about the woman. Nobody is worth wasting my time over, if she's not interested then that's the end of it. Simple as.

If I was really interested I'd give it another shot to be sure. Otherwise move on. Women are hard work enough anyway.
This does remind me of my ex tbh - she married a guy that pestered her for 3 months only to divorce him 18 years later. Should have paid attention to her instincts huh?

answer from a male, we do not understand "rejection", that is only in the oxford english female dictionary, if a male sees a female it likes it will do pretty much anything to achieve it's objective, i.e. obtain the female! hope this is of help, mark. x

A lot of men are Prats, a lot of men are Gits, still more are beastly rude, and others somewhere in between. There are only a few worth bothering with.
