Rusty's translations are perfect. no importa, ya no importa, olvídalo, no te preocupes, déjalo, olvídate, etc.

It can also be two words "never mind".

No me importa = I don't care

No me molesta = I don't mind

totally different from "nevermind"

Why david said those words, no importa! ya no importa, olvídalo, no te preocupes, déjalo, olvídate. so when can I use it! because each one has its meaning: for example as you did:
I don´t mind , no me molesta:
I don´t care: no me importa.
Forget it!
don´t worry!
AM I right?

You use "never mind" to tell someone not to pay attention to what you previously said.

Mate remember that the words at English has more meaning than Spanish. For example.

Ask. Pedir, preguntar.

When in Spanish preguntar is only preguntar.

Then you don't amaze when a word has much meaning. You only must procure to learn them and also you must learn to use them correctly.

No me importa - it's not important to me
No importa - it's not important (nevermind it, it doesn't matter)

Remember also that words can change meaning if they are together vs apart........

i.e.

nevermind = olvídalo, no es importante

never mind = no escuchar/obedecer...
i.e. You never mind my orders = ¡Nunca obedeces mis ordenes!
