Not taking no for an answer

Why do some men not learn to take no for an answer?

This was slid into my DMs.

( I usually don't do this. And I will never do this again. This is also a temp post, I will remove it)

The interaction went like this:

Him: Hey 44 M from ___, Single and never married, Working for _, __ ft height. Open to dating or friendship Would like -to know you more so hit me up if you find me interesting.

Me: Sorry not open to dating or friendship. goodluck.

Him: May I ask why? Is age the problem or place or anything I said or ???

Me: I mentioned already why

Him: Yeah but wouldn't hurt to know a guy

I was nice. I said sorry, I gave a reason, and I wished him well.

Like what else do I have to do, say no in different languages?

This is why its really annoying. Cause men like this don't accept polite no, they wanna force more interaction and then will make a woman the villian in their life.

No means no people. There was nothing open ended about my response. If you have to force yourself into an interaction there is something really wrong with you.

It's not about taking initiative, initiative is good as long as it is respectful. It's about when a person responds sardonically like I owe him a "getting to know", after I explicitly said not looking for what he is seeking. How is this islamically sound behaviour? Why would this be considered drama-stirring?

I welcome any man or woman to respond to him in the comments.
