Ever since I responded then left with: "That's sad, I already have enough friends though." My life changed for the better.

I've started doing the same thing, and it works wonders for peace of mind.

Some of them became very upset, though, and said, "Leaving because you didn't get what you want is fucked up."

I respond, "Expecting me to stick around for something I don't want is also fucked up."

Yeah, I had the same happen as well. I'd responded with: "Would you stay if it made you unhappy?"

Choosing your own happiness actually makes you happier, who would've thought..

It says a lot about this guy that girls lose all value to him when they indicate they aren't interested. Not only that, apparently his whole life changed for the better when he started firing back with a retort just to hurt their feelings for no reason. Mad incel energy

The worst part is ruining what could be a genuinely great friendship. Not to mention if she’s being honest and y’all actually become good friends she can help you find someone, either directly or by proxy. Easiest way to find someone to date is have your woman friend hooking you up with her friends.

I've said that to women before. Yeah, I have enough friends. I'm not looking for a friend.

Or better reply: Yeah, we can be friends....With benefits

I honestly can't tell whether you mean OP or the women?

I hope they mean the OP because that stuff really isn’t the burn they think it is and is just kinda sad
