Of course, that person saves your time by keeping it real. 

You don’t mind if you’re not that type. 

But you take it normally and respond positively.

2. “I’m happy that you keep it straight.” 

If you want to respond politely to their rejection, say this. 

You express that you appreciate them for being honest with you. 

3. “Don’t worry about me, I have been so ready for this.” 

Possibly, you have some idea that it’s coming to you.

This response you can give a girl who feels hesitant while saying that you are not her type.

5. “You know what? I was feeling the same.” 

That this person and you are not a perfect match. 

You could have said it nearly soon, but before you did, that person told you already

This means you also didn’t expect much from this connection, in the first place. 

6. “Honestly, I want to say the same, but I didn’t have the guts for it.” 

So, you now feel more relaxed as they said it already. 

If you feel hurt and still have to show up positive, this response is the perfect one. 

7. “I knew it that’s why I never spent more money on you.” 

This one is a clever response to share with a girl who thinks she’s smarter. 

But she has no idea that you are not that dumb that you spend your valuable time or money on her. 

If you spend enough time, you can tell they are the best thing happened to you.

8. “Alright, but we have a good time together.”

When a girl already says ‘You’re not my type’, accept the rejection like a man. 

Leave this connection with respect.

And, this is a respectful reply to thank her for the good time you had.

Being with them you know who they really are. 

10. “Oh is it? Nice to meet you, goodbye.” 

You don’t even want to wait much there. 

Because there’s nothing good for you, you better get out of that person’s hair as quickly as you can.

What Does It Mean When Someone Says You’re Not Their Type?

When a guy or girl tells (or informs) you that “You’re not my type”, they mean there’s something about you that they don’t like. 

No doubt, your connection started great. 

But over time as you know more about each other, you get to know it better. 

That guy or girl already felt that there was no chemistry between you two or no sense of the relationship.

Indeed, they are rejecting you due to differences in qualities and nature or something else. 

But, a guy or girl says so in a different context. 

Some keep it straight because they don’t want you to have high expectations from this connection. 

While in another case, they say so to demean you. 

They want to show that they have high standards and you’re not any close to that. 

Normally, you just respond like ‘That’s okay’, like you accept this rejection politely.  

But based on how someone tells you that “You’re not my type”, you should respond in a way that protects your pride and image.
