WHAT DO YOU TELL YOURSELF WHEN SOMEBODY IGNORES YOUR MESSAGE?

  Saying it the everyday problem would make me appear as a complete jerk, so let the fact be a little hidden as "if it ever happens." Whenever my message gets ignored, its reaction depends on my relationship with that person and how many times it got overlooked. In this busy routine, we are generally concerned about our close relations. So, if a dear one ignores my message:

Firstly, I try to understand that there might be some issues in another person's life.

Secondly, he might have forgotten.

Thirdly, if this is a patterned behaviour, then I know that something is wrong that needs to be mended or equally responded to with the same behaviour.

OPINION MAKES A REACTION:

Telling you something makes an opinion which ultimately influences reaction about that thing. When the reason is unclear, I try to understand that there might be some problem that somehow led that person to refrain from replying, as per Hoffman's saying. 

"Remember to have empathy and share your concern that you have not heard from them."

Consequently, I drop a courtesy message inquiring about their situation. The courtesy message also includes the expression of sadness to know the newfound distance between friendships.

HUSTLE BUSTLE MAKES YOU FORGET:

The hustle of a busy routine might also be one of the reasons to forget to reply, and rather than taking that silence as ignoring, and I try to understand that the human mind has the chance to fail as well. This opinion gives way to a reminder message. Ignoring a letter might also be a signal about some conflict, as Jack man says, 

"If there was a conflict, your friend's silent treatment may be their way of processing and taking space to figure out how to respond."

COMMUNICATION IS AN ART:

Being good at communication is an art. Not everyone is good at it. If that is the case, the other party needs to be considerate in the relationship, show how much it is bothering you, give them space to take their time, and whenever they resurface, listen to their concerns and make them comfortable about the situation.

CORDIAL BONDS ARE WORTH COMPROMISING FOR:

This is how I deal when someone ignores my messages and healthily manages my relations. Likewise, I suggest to others because we all are social animals and learn from each other. Life is all about helping others and being considerate when it comes to relationships. In this materialistic world, the cordial bond is one of the most precious things to care about.

SELF-RESPECT IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE:

Message in any form is one of the significant ways of communication nowadays. One might be considerate in close relations if their message is ignored, but that behaviour is for a certain period. If this pattern of behaviour continues, it needs a proper solution. The first thing is to ask them directly and listen to them in an understanding manner, no matter whether their behaviour is aggressive or rude and upsetting. However, if they do not have proper reason, it's time to respond in like manner because self-respect is the essence of life, and somehow their ignorance is trolling and humiliating your self-respect.
