People don't "refuse" it. It's just that not everyone believes the same thing that you do. For example, many Christians believe Jesus died for their sins, and those who believe in him will gain eternal life. But many other religions-- Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, just to name a few, do not share that belief. These religions do not "reject" eternal life-- they simply believe in a different religious path. For example, I am Jewish and while I respect my Christian friends, I do not believe Jesus was the messiah. You could say that I am "refusing" eternal life, or you could find out more about what Jews believe so that you could respect their views about the afterlife. In other words, we don't have to agree, but it's always a good idea to understand how various religious traditions answer life's biggest questions.
I would say that it's more ignoring than "refusing." Very few people consciously refuse eternal life. Rather, they allow themselves to be swept up by materialism, mental laziness, and hedonism, never bothering to delve into the spiritual.
It isn't quite clear what you mean by "refuse eternal life". Personally, I believe that we have an immortal soul, whether we want to or not. However, many people may simply not believe in the possibility of an eternal life.

How would people react if they lived forever?
It likely depends on what situation they were living in. Many fictional works have tried to imagine an immortal life. In some, people get bored, or eternally sad because they have lost so much. In others, they are happy to be able to keep living and experiencing new things and new people. I imagine that an eternal life would have ups and downs just like a limited lifespan does. ... Of course, if you couple eternal life with other things, then everything changes. The eternal life spoken of by many religions after this life is usually a place of eternal joy... or eternal regret.
