@komattyan:Refuse the action version over refuse is shaking your head no its lighter and sounds less aggressive the action of Reject is sticking your hands out and pushing something away it's the harshest out of the 3 decline is slightly pushing something like pushing a paper away form you its usually used in business terms like "I presented my idea to the board about raising pay but it was sadly declined"

They pretty much mean the same thing, the difference is in the "tone" behind the choice of each words by the speaker and to the receiver.
E.g - She declined his offer to dance. (Would use this option if the lady was neutral about the man, and just did not want to dance out of her own preference, so she politely said no to his offer.)
E.g - She refused his offer to dance. (Would use this option if the lady did not feel like dancing with the man.)
E.g - She rejected his offer to dance. (Would use this option if the lady outright did not like the man at all.)
