FINE, ignore me! Next time you contact me, I will ignore you so you get a taste of your own medicine.

Now a days with the time stamp, you clearly know if the recipient read your message and then decided to ignore you outright. I sent a message a few days ago to a "friend" (an actual friend I know) on Facebook and never heard back. This "friend" is absolutely fine - statuses are posted, likes and communicating just never answered my "hello". Well, that's fine. I won't be responding to this person when he decides to contact me for anything, or just to say hi so they can get a taste of their own medicine. But I think the real reason I am ignored, is my mother is also friends with him and probably told him I am having an engagement party next month. Many said he had a crushed on me supposedly.

I received a call inviting us out to a dinner and a movie for the same night. My friend told me she texted me days ago. I am one who rarely checks her texts unless I know something important is going on, or if I happen to hear my text notification. I'm not one to carry my phone or iPad from room to room. If it's so important, they can call me. Perhaps he doesn't want to buy you a gift. Lol!

If I send text messages to my mom, she NEVER reads them so I would have to call. The message I sent via Facebook wasn't important, it just said "hi", but knowing he saw it with the time stamp. He wasn't busy enough to say "hi" back because I saw he wrote some Facebook status. But all well I only go on Facebook here/there, its okay.

@DianneN Hehe. I texted my dad today. A second later he calls me. I told him the point of texting was not to call. He was like it's faster than typing! Engangement party isn't until March.

Then again my sister ignored me also! I sent her a text message last night and she read it but never wrote back. But I know she's busy with caring for her family / 2 kids / balancing work / life, so thats fine. We did talk earlier in the day yesterday though so that's fine.

But you have been in a relationship (a committed one at that) for almost a decade. And NOW he thinks he have to ignore you due to his "alleged" crush? I am stumped.

I've hung out with him a handful of times with mutual friends. He knows my relationship status but who knows. He talks to my mom sometimes and my mom told me she called him to say hi. Next day I decided to say hello and was ignored. I'm sure my mom told him the good news.

@infatuatedbby Yup! If they do that to me I'm not going send them any message at all or call. They have to call me to get a response. But if the case is a broken heart suitor I totally understand. I mean he's probably moving on.. And ignoring is the way he's coping. He must have like you very much .

That is pretty immature if he is ignoring you because he is upset that you are engaged. Even if he has a crush on you he should be happy for you that you are happy! I hate being ignored and it is very obvious on facebook when our messages were viewed and not responded to.

I have no idea what would be the reason of him to ignore me. I talked to him the week before and it was fine. Just briefly, and my mom told me she called him to catch up saying hi, and he was fine. Then when I said hi (and if he responded, I'd wish him a Happy Chinese New Year) but no response. All well. And my biggest peeve is if people clearly see the message and ignore! .

Awww .. . well if he had a crush on you . . . then maybe he is bummed. He could have still said hi, but maybe he just couldn't get himself to do it. Aww Yah, I know . . . you see that time stamp and you just know they read it. What's also frustrating is when you don't see a time stamp so you know they didn't even open it! I have a couple messages like that. I took the time to write and these people didn't even read the message (I guess).

I wouldn't mind a response of , can't talk right now or I'm busy anything but going on day 3, eh! That's alright , but he's been like this before. Sorry I can't do anything further but all I wanted to say hi and a brief how are you doing? Hope all is well and wish him a happy new year ahead and prosperity, etc but I guess not since my initial Hi was not acknowledged but seen! I didn't bother writing anything after seeing he read the message of "hi" though.

Well, facebook doesn't always let you know if you've got a message. Atleast it used to not. I might also be thinking about people who aren't on your friends list? Either way, I don't see him ignoring you just because you are engaged. Even if he did have a crush on you.
