Pure focus on DMSI

She was being polite and trying to let you down easy... I would never say to a guy "No,thank you, I don't want to talk to you." That would sound rude, no matter how gently you say it. She was being polite and then you confronted her, feeling her bad about being polite. I am not surprised she left quickly.

But it`s great that you are not feeling attached to the outcome! Is that an AOSI effect?

I have been on the receiving end of vastly more brutal verbal responses from women than "No I don't want to talk to you."

This one was uncomfortable all around and probably just didn't know how to deal with the situation or her feelings. I'm not sure polite would enter into it at that level of discomfort, might be more along the lines of "Oh boy, what is this guy gonna do to me?"

Surfer, I think by the description, your approach was much too aggressive for her.
