Mark, it could be seen that you are confusing personal (you asked her out, she refused) with work; it is inappropriate, in any workplace, to resort to raised voices - if from a manager, this could be seen as harassment or bullying, if from you, insubordination.
Can I advise that, in the future, if this sort of situation arises, you just say 'I'm sorry, but I need some time out to think about this, as you are upsetting me' and then leave the area.
