Ignore someone?

Have you ever had to ignore someone? Why?

Many regards online from weird to odd to why did you do that. Even people that I have known for years that one day I had to end.

One person that I do not talk much to him anymore that we chat like every day, one day I was sick and tired of him being rude to me for drinking and after a while, he got so bad from drinking I had it. He's a different man when he's drunk. tried to help him over and over again and it's to the point that you can't help him.

Yet he's still stuck around in my streams Xd

I have ignored some group meet ups due to being shy, and I have ignored some people online.

I've avoided tons of fights, confrontations and rude people just by simply ignoring them. Yes it seems like a cowardly move, but the payoff is huge. Showing someone you simply don't care about their absence is the ultimate insult. You simply can live a peaceful life without issue once you learn to not care about others or their issue with you.

It's easier for me to ignore what strangers and pissed off customers at work have to say because I don't have an emotional connection to them. What's hard to ignore is when it's an issue with your closest friends and family, you know?

I'm one of those annoying people who doesn't reply straight away, a lot of the time I'll wait until another time when I can be bothered to get into a chat! I guess that's ignoring somebody but I'm not trying to be mean!

In that case, I wouldn't ignore them. I would, instead, ask what their issue is and try to mutually solve it. If you can't, then at least you tried.

I'd have to say my daughter sometimes. Sometimes she will whine and I have to ignore her and let her know that I don't know what she's saying and she has to use words to explain what she's thinking.

Does it work?

Does it work?

As a father myself, I have to agree with @Sharon. If you continue to reciprocate attention with that kind of behavior, it becomes a learned bad habit and your kids know that it works in getting them what they want. But, like Sharon said, if you ignore it they tend to quit doing it when they don't get the results they want.

Yep exactly this. One of the things I've learned quickly as a parent is that you have to discourage bad behavior and encourage good ones. Also, energy is limited and you quickly learn to choose your battles.

I normally ignore the nibblers of my life. These people should be ignored because they are not good people to hangout with.

Have you ever had to ignore someone? Why?

Yeah I ignore very annoying people. Some people just want to get one upset and annoyed so I ignore them

 

[Ginger]

There can be many reasons but major would be that I don't like to chat or talk with that particular person

 

[raaman]

Yes. It is because of their bad behavior in the past.

I tend to ignore people who like to gossip.

I tend to ignore people who like to gossip.

That is also good because our time is wasted in unnecessary gossip.

This person never lets others speak at get togethers. I have always ignored her and tried to pay attention to others.
