Yeah but she didn't get all depressed at his decision nor get petty, unless you count kicking Happy into space that is. =P She accepted it calmly without showing it, or at least Jellal was too flustered to notice. There is an understanding there which is not present with Gray and the clincher is that Erza confirmed that Gray was just being nonchalant about it. Jellal was being serious and was considering life and death. The two contexts are different. Besides, you honestly think Erza would have "suffered" if Jellal actually had a fiance? She could have taken it and then realized that it makes no sense how the guy would have a fiance given his circumstances. She would have figured it out regardless of Jellal being a bad liar.

But never mind all that, it wasn't even a rejection. It is just the cliche "Fall on top of each other and have a tender moment" thing. Not a rejection. Anyone would get caught up in the moment in that kind of instance. However it is different for Gray and Juvia. But yeah, I'm not disagreeing with why you feel that way. The guy certainly didn't handle it too smoothly. He is clumsy. But still isn't a dick like Gray. =P
