INTRODUCTION: WHY I'M OPENING THIS TOPIC
I'm opening up about this because I chose to ignore someone. And I'm not ashamed of it. I had valid reasons for doing so, and I want to share this truth. Often, we only hear one side of the story. I've seen countless situations where someone feels ignored, but they're not willing to look at the reasons behind it.

This post is a challenge to anyone who feels ignored: don't just focus on how you feel. Look at the entire picture and consider the reasons behind someone's actions. Be honest with yourself. If you're feeling ignored, ask yourself why. What role did you play in the situation? Don't be biased and leave things out just because it feels easier to play the victim.
STEP-BY STEP GUIDE TO MASTERING THE ART OF BEING IGNORED
Want to be ignored more? Just follow these simple steps:
1. TEXT HIM NON-STOP, EVEN WHEN HE DOESN'T REPLY I ignored someone because they wouldn't stop texting me. And no matter how many times I explained myself, they didn't listen. When someone constantly bombards you with messages, especially when you've already made it clear you're busy or need space, ignoring them becomes necessary. You have to set boundaries.
2. IGNORING SOMEONE'S BOUNDARIES We often think we know better than the person who's ignoring us. However, the truth is, they have their own reasons. I've had to ignore people who didn't respect my space, time, or needs. If you find yourself constantly being ignored, ask yourself: Are you respecting the other person's boundaries? It's important to understand that ignoring someone is sometimes a response to feeling disrespected.
3. MAKE YOUR HAPPINESS DEPENDENT ON HIS ATTENTION If you rely on someone else's attention for your happiness, you're setting yourself up for disappointment. I ignored someone because I realized they were depending on me too much for validation. That's not healthy for anyone involved. You need to learn to stand on your own feet and not base your emotions on whether someone replies or not.
4. POST DRAMATIC RANTS, BUT SKIP THE REAL STORY It's easy to post dramatic rants on social media about being ignored or feeling hurt, but leaving out the real story isn't fair. I've ignored someone because I needed space, and I didn't want to keep explaining myself over and over.
It's fine to share how you're feeling, but make sure you're telling the whole truth. By only sharing one side, you not only misrepresent the situation but also damage the image of the person involved. They may have already explained their reasons, but if you choose to ignore those and force your own version of events, you're being selfish and misleading. Always be honest, and remember that a one-sided story hurts more than it helps.
5. EXPECT HIM TO DROP EVERYTHING FOR YOU The worst thing you can do is expect someone to drop everything for you. That's what leads to being ignored. I ignored someone because I needed time for myself, and they kept expecting me to put them above everything else in my life. People are not your emotional support machines. When you start respecting someone's time, you'll stop getting ignored.
HOW TO STOP BEING IGNORED: HERE'S THE FIX
Ready for a change? Want to stop the cycle of being ignored? Here's what you need to do:
1. STOP TEXTING FIRST EVERY TIME When you constantly text first, you're essentially saying, "I need you to reply to make me feel good." Instead, let them reach out to you. When I ignored someone, it was because I was being bombarded, and I needed to take control. Don't always be the first to reach out. Let the person come to you, and see if the dynamic changes.
2. RESPECT HIS TIME I ignored someone because they didn't respect my time. If someone is busy or has other priorities, respect that. Don't just keep demanding attention because you feel like it. Respecting someone's time is the key to not being ignored.
3. START LIVING YOUR OWN LIFE You don't need someone else's validation to feel good about yourself. I ignored people because I realized I was putting too much energy into their approval. That wasn't healthy for me. Start living your life for yourself—not for anyone else.
4. BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF If someone is ignoring you, ask yourself why. Don't just blame them. Face the truth: maybe they've already told you why they're not replying. Maybe you're just refusing to hear it. Be honest with yourself about your role in the situation.
FINAL THOUGHT: THE CHOICE IS YOURS
You have a choice: keep being the ignored person, or wake up and change your approach. If you want to be ignored more, keep doing the same things. But if you're tired of the cycle, it's time to stop waiting for someone else to make you happy.
Take control of your own life, stop expecting anything from anyone, and finally start living for YOU. Don't let his lack of response dictate your worth.
Stop waiting for someone else to make you happy. Stop the self-sabotage.
