Why would he not interfere with THAT decision?

For the same reason a man in love, when rejected, does not proceed to rape the object of his love.

That's a totally inappropriate comparison. One reason is that a jilted man is dealing with an equal in the woman. He did not create her and she is not his to do with as he pleases. He is not in control. Obviously, none of this is the case between God and men. Another reason is that the man raping the woman would be to do her harm. God interfering with a man's decision about Christ is only to man's good, a good that your side rejects. Therefore, your comparison is going in the opposite direction.
