Reaction to a rejection?

I don't care if I come off as butthurt. She and what she thinks are irrelevant now.

Here's how it works.

I don't ask for her number, I approach her and ask her what she has planned on (day) if she starts rambling about a lot of things, I walk away.

If it sounds like she has time on her hands, then I decide for her what we should do together, any woman with interest plays along. If she accepts to meet up, then she gives me her number.

Asking for a number first, then texting to meet up rarely works for me.

Also if I'm really direct about going out with a chick, I don't smile or anything I give them a condescending look and ask if they're down or not and it seems to be working. If they say they got a boyfriend, I just keep on cruising.. I never looked that excited to date them to begin with, so on their end it doesn't look like I lost anything of value when I got rejected.

I don't come off butthurt at all. I never imply that I care about a woman, she does the work for me to show that she cares about me, and I'll reward her as a result.

You only come off as butthurt if your attitude changes as a result of the rejection, but I come off as someone who has a lot of options. Set them up for the illusion that I'm above them and I'm doing them a favor by asking them out.

Build your status/looks/wealth to the point to where you don't have to negotiate shit. Ask if they're single, they say no? Walk away, if they say yes? Touch them then right off the bat I'll immediately know if she has the slightest bit of interest. Any repulsive look or attempt to escape from my grasp puts her on my ignore list.

Rejection? What's that? But in all seriousness, the times I did get rejected usually ended up with me getting their number anyways. I usually say something along the lines of "Well, I'm out of here. Thanks for wasting my time" stand up, glance at my watch then scope the place out looking for my next target. About 7 times out of 10 they stopped me, said something along the lines of "Well if it means that much...." and proceeded to give me their number. As far as social circles are concerned I usually don't give a crap because any social relationship worth being in wont be impacted by some rejection.

You are looking at this from the completely wrong perspective.

You did her a tremendous favor by giving her the chance to go out with you.

If you offered someone a $1000 and they said no thanks, would you be worried about how your mutual friends would view you?

When/if they bring it up you should act like you were stunned that she turned down your charity, poor girl.

Walk away, stop wasting your time.

"Sorry I don't really give out my number"

"Oh, that's a bummer. Ok, I'm gonna go get a drink/go to the bathroom/see what my friends are up to"

And never acknowledge her again.
