Many large startups who've gone on to raise multiple large rounds have taken money from VCs who've rejected them previously, it's not uncommon as VCs reject companies for a whole host of reasons many of which have nothing to do with how much the VC likes you/your vision/etc.<p>In practice what really matters is your relationship with the VC and the the partner who's leading the round.<p>If you feel resentment or that they don't understand your business then politely decline and move on, it'll be in no-ones interest if you take their money while feeling angry at them. If you're feeling ambivalent then consider them like any other VC you're evaluating taking money from.
The same way you'd treat any other VC who wants to invest.<p>You may have an additional data point to consider if this VC behaved badly in the past.<p>Don't consider punishing the VC for not believing in you or something similarly silly. It's just business.
Treat them the same way you'd treat any other later-round VC investor. If you're going to need to do substantial work with them but feel this will be difficult you can certainly bypass them, but unless the initial rejection was for something other than legitimate reasons then get over it.
