The way OP framed it these women were saying "back off, I got a BF" in those words. If that was being said to be, I'd have no trouble taking her ego down a step.
Good thing you edited your post to add in that last line. You have admitted in other threads that you exaggerate and you post very inconsistently. No one likes a liar, especially doing so for effect.
Liberty, I don't think he's exaggerating...
Some years ago, back when I smoked, a woman in front of me pulled out a cigarette and put it to her mouth. Impulsively, I drew my lighter from my pocket and was gonna light her cigarette. She gave me a dirty look, shook her head and went away. Never again.

No, the way the OP seems to be taking it is that a simple mention of an SO must MEAN "back off." He does not say a single one of these women literally said back off. It is how he is TAKING it.
By the way, "Dont flatter yourself" is pretty much *the* typical/traditional way of covering being hurt/very affected by the rejection and women will tend to feel sorry for you when you use it. Just a heads up. It's one of the most sour grapes rejection "rebuttals" out there and we women know it. No guy gets that instantly snotty and defensive unless he is really upset by the rejection. A guy who is casual about the rejection will just smile and move along, basically.

I really wish I was I exaggerating because things like that shouldn't happen in public but I'm not.
No, women have NOT "screamed" at you several times and caused a scene simply because you held a door open for them and allowed them to go first.
I can believe that some people are snippy or impolite, but I go in and out of doors on a daily basis, and I have never ever seen a woman (or a man, for that matter) go batcrap nuts because someone held the door for them. You hear about it online all the time, though, like it's something that's common.

I don't give a damn if you don't like me you always want to pick an argument each time I make a post. Go do it with someone else, I'm in a good mood and you won't ruin it anymore.

The fact that you use that as an excuse to never again open a door for a woman, even for your own mother, is a bit of an overreaction, though, yes?
Where in my post did I say several women? Don't put words in my mouth. I said a few women not several.
