~Being Ignored~

Valdosta, Georgia
January 7, 2016 5:45pm CST
I will not mention any names what so ever but I have messaged someone a couple of times...and they are ignoring me! At first I thought maybe they just haven't been here and anyone can look past that but- they were here 30 minutes ago! So...I know I promised I wouldn't mention any names...but, well...I lied! @ataboy Answer me mister or else! I know I am not very scary...at all. On a more serious note-have you ever been completely ignored and you didn't have a clue as to why? (This was just meant for fun no serious nellies)

That ataboy seems like a fun person, perhaps he hasn't noticed your message.

He dose sound like an absolutely delightful guy, doesn't he! He also probably feels pretty small at the moment! LOL! J/K! Well, not entirely!

I don't think this happens to me often. If it does, I'm too thick to notice :)

@ataboy Thank you. That's a lovely thing to say. I don't like confrontations so I keep my mouth shut fairly well - doesn't mean I don't think nasty things sometimes.

I don't think that Loving (nor you) have anything to worry about, Judy! Would not not agree?! "Thick skin" a good trait to have, but somehow I suspect that neither she, nor you will need to use such things!

Oh yes, I know how it was to be ignored. It's no fun and I felt unimportant. Back then I will just suk and let the incident ruin my day. But now, I just brush it off and move on. I have better friends and other people who deserve my time so why waste it worrying or thinking about someone who ignored me? On to your post, I hope that person finally touches base with you! ??

@Raine38 Being ignored is not a good feeling at all, your right. I usually don't let it bother me either offline, but this post was just to get this person's attention mostly which I accomplished!

@Raine38 Yes. Why should we suffer if someone doesn't value us. I have also learnt that from my past experiences. Just Let it Go and move on.

Thank you, @TiarasOcean, certainly a misjudgement on my part only is a little bit terrible, right! I'm just messing with Loving! Such an ideal critter she is! If I've EVER said even the most minuscule negative word about her please point it out, by all means! Yes that right...Publicly or privately she is nothing short of an ~amazing~ person ! And "NO!" she was not asking or such a compliment!

Ouch! Zang! But totally called for! I have been intermittently here, yes. I think the world of you Loving, I think you know that! And, I didn't mean to convey the feeling of ~being ignored~ to you! By the way, isn't lying unbecoming of such an angel ? (A couple of times, huh? Hmm... I thought that a couple involved two, but I guess one qualifies as a couple, somewhere!) All I can say is that my notifications are overwhelming me, and I try to get through them first so that I can reply in a more relaxed, and while you're not the only PM I've neglected to respond to for a few days, your the one that I would like most to reply to. But, no more excuses! I will put off everything I'm working on and hope that everyone here will understand that if I don't respond to you it's because I have more pressing matters to attend to! Not everyone can come first... And now I will willing accept the lashings that I have coming! Oh, and if I ever don't happen to reply to someone, they can assume that it has nothing to do with my thoughts of them. I don't do the "hint" thing. If I don't want to speak with someone I will tell them "I don't want to speak with you." I always want to speak with you Loving! I know it was a half-joke, half-serious post, but I'm quite sorry for what I can only say was procrastinating on my part! ...I'm trying to set a record here!

@ataboy Yes lying was very bad for an angel! Shame on me for that one. Lol. As for the two-I counted my response as a message as well. It is totally okay, I meant this as totally fun and in hopes of getting your attention-which worked. It is good to know that if you didn't want to speak with me you would just tell me. I wasn't sure so I'm glad you clarified that! I think you set the hug record for sure! Lol. There's no way I can beat all of those!

There are countless reasons why this happens and if you have no reasons to believe that there has been hurts exchange then you need to wait patiently. In the meanwhile I notice not only a message but countless hugs have been sent your way (lol)

@Morleyhunt That is sad when nothing actually happened. I don't understand why some wives/husbands keep them away from their loved ones, it is silly to me.

@LovingMyBabies I'm not actually sure. I was accused of saying something (he had a 'reliable source') that not only did I not say. The thought had not even crossed my mind. I believe it is more his wife who is keeping him on a very short leash. That is so sad.

Oh yes, I was into that situation and also now, but not here in mylot. Earlier in my company suddenly few colleagues started ignoring me who were kinda good friends. That was weird as there was no explanation. Since I was too busy in my professional commitments I did not care. Now also sometimes I feel totally ignore but I have learnt to move on. Just don't care.

@WriterMukund I hate when that happens-especially with no explanation at all. That is strange. It is better to move on and not stress over it.
