Just because one person rejected you doesn't mean all people will. Its strange that you say you have a fragile ego. A while ago you were complaining that too many men hit on you? Maybe you only like men that dont like you back? Anyways I think you should take it easy and not pin yourself worth on whats going on relationship wise.
I'd say that pretty much any time I reject a girl, it is, indeed, because of her.
The only real exceptions would be due to relocating.
Rejection is just one of the things we have to experience as modern people, it wasn't that long ago that men and women were in short supply for dating, especially in the many small town environments. Today we live in the sprawl of big cities or the vast burbs where there is so many people to choose from that you might feel like a kid in the candy shop. I've noticed that a lot of serial daters are just out for the hunt never expecting to really connect for fear of missing out on something better. Too many choices in people can be looked upon as the major snag in dating today. Move on and realize this isn't the end, you'll find that person who really wants you, but it won't be easy...
It's very hard to not take it personally when someone you invest time/energy/interest in just blatantly doesn't care or feel the same way. The signs are very obvious and apparent.
How is it possible to not to hate* the fact that someone has viewed you, deemed you unacceptable/ saw negative qualities in you, and decided to brush your interest aside?
I really like myself. But I have to say, sometimes it really sucks. And I wonder, what does it take to make a good impression on this guy? It can be quite frustrating. I know it's not the end of the world but it does suck to put yourself out there and hang your neck out like that... and get rebuffed.
*typo as heart. No I don't heart that at all. haha
There are times when we're strong for someone, but they don't feel the same. Then there are times when someone is strong for us, but we just don't get it. When the feeling is mutual that's when we "agree" to have a relationship. But it's a long shot that we both want to even get started, let alone stick it out.
I generally stand in the middle of a busy street with a gun pointed to my head until the police show up with a mental health counselor to talk me out of doing anything drastic. It's amazing how much better you feel after spending a month in a padded cell where it's nice and quiet.

this is how i have decided to cope, excellent replies by the way everyone - thank you
screw relationships,
i am going to focus on keeping myself happy
if i end up in one (despite my being quite messed up in terms of them), then great
if i dont then screw it
i dont really care anymore... if something which is not really required of me is making me unhappy, then i should be able to drop it. why make myself unhappy?.

It pisses me off when I know the girl likes me but for whatever reason she rejects me, this happened to me once and it was because she was 4 years older and felt weird about it. Other than that its pretty much neutral getting rejected unless its in a disrespectful way. I am a very respectful person so luckily I have never been rejected in a mean way. I can tell off the bat when a girl is not interested so I don't push it.
