when people ignore you sorted by

If you are a student, you may want to try a school guidance counselor first because they won't cost you anything.

In fact, you may have already helped them out and they don't want to get back to you because they don't want to9 acknowledge the role you played in their success, which is something i see quite a lot of - it's a form of cognitive dissonance as these people are generally quite arrogant and when they were low had to rely on you and now they are 'back' - they can't reconcile in their mind that they needed your help to get to where they are.

As an alternative to looking closed off, you can also just look really, really busy, like you couldn't possibly talk to that person because you have your hands full and don't have a second of time to spare for a silly conversation with him.

Then, throughout the day, as you become aware it's in a different location remind yourself to smile and be grateful for at least one good thing in your life.

Talk about ways that both of you can adjust so that the relationship improves.

Do you assume the worst? If the person is shorter than you, then just stare right over their head.

Still, there are a few things you can do to minimize contact.

By ignoring them, you might cause them to take notice of your actions.

If you really have to talk to that person to get some work done, do it.

So, you can live without them.
