This is so common. We don't really tend to discuss it really cause it kind of harsh to be public about rejections, but it happens a lot.

I had a guy ask me out a few years ago, I really delicately explained I wasn't interested, and he took it really well and we had a hug. I told everyone about that for years because of how surprising it was.
