During this difficult
phrase of picking up your broken pieces and moving on, it is almost
critical how you handle your emotions and the aftermath of any
lessons taught by life because it WILL determine how you will be
faring in love and your absolute attitude towards it.
Your ego is blatantly wounded when she rejected your affection by
claiming that you were too short for her. It doesn't matter whether
you were indeed too short (1.7 is still fine imho), because her
words cuts your ego savagely like a mindless zombie. Your mind
tried to ward off the incoming attack by installing a psychological
defensive mechanism to restore that esteem balance she had greatly
decimated.
Your mysogynist attitude is a byproduct of a piercing rejection
which you took it personally. One likely scenario could be; chances
are, your friends may have dissuade you from chasing her, but you
probably turn on deaf ear until she had to destroy that blinded ego
of yours to convey that message directly. If you were to reflect
objectively, you would have realise that she might have rejected
you, however subtlety it may seemed, but your pressuring love
merely brush away that notion.
Your desire to amass materialistic power is a change to rebuilt
your self worth. It's a very common transformation in Love
(especially man), whenever their self worth is being questioned,
regarding their personality or when in Love. Money represent power
and because you have failed to secure the object of your affection,
somehow, it seemed that you could have 'more power' through 'more
money'.
So what if you
could own the world but loses your soul?
Love is a free spirit that cannot be bounded by any artificial
earthly powers. Its beauty can only be attracted and not postulated
by some imperative manner.
Your self worth is in a blur, caused by a huge devastation of your
falling ego. And this is the crucial moment when you make a choice
between:
I) Rejuvenate your soul to explore the meaning of Love and
gradually move on the advanced and higher study of Love.
II) Reject the lessons presented to seek your own path.
Aquarius, the water bearer, and it makes you a natural thinker. In
Love, you are intellectually stimulated, but you must guard against
degenerative thoughts that is self destructive because you are so
mentally influenced/triggered (and your quality being fixed), that
negative thoughts affect you far more insidious than the other
signs (applicable Gemini and Libra as well).
P.S: I was once at this cross road of life, to become a fcuking
player or to become what I am now. I took the latter road and there
are several personal reasons why I did so. Still, it didn't banish
the fact that we are all ruled by choices on the kind of attitude
we want to adopt in Love.
This is the time to be spirtually enlightened. Explore your
religion if you have or if you have none, you could study astrology
like myself. 
Cheers
