Some people have this amazing knack of ignoring problems. Unfortunately they don’t ignore the problems, they ignore the people behind the problem leaving behind a tremendous sense of frustration in the people with whom they were once interacting. And when at some point of time there is a face-to-face interaction which goes beyond a given point then they are usually stunned to see the amount of flak they are recieving. Why is it tough for them to understand that they were the ones who swept these things under the carpet when they had to deal with it?

See personally my sense of things tells me that unless you are capable of dealing with the cumulative pressure at the later end, you should not shove things under the carpet. Its not like your ignoring means that the topic has died its death in the other person’s mind. In the other person’s mind, for all you know, it might have taken up bigger proportions because it was ignored. It helps being sensitive to the other person in case you want a good relationship with him/ her. And ignoring issues just does not help in building good relationships.

Yes, sometimes it’s a great strategy. As one of my friends decided to give me the royal ignore because of one of my blogposts. I thought he was being childish. And tried every means of getting in touch with him. Finally he gives me some bs that his phone was lost and all kinds of nonsense. Anyway by then there was an irreversible void that was created that I don’t think will ever be bridged. He can ignore people in the future also, but atleast now he will know the costs of it or so I hope. So if his final desired result was distance from me then he deployed the ignore strategy to great effect. But if you want to build a great relationship please give attention to the other person. Ignoring only makes matters worse.

I am not sure where I am going with this post. So let me not go on with more random stuff. So if you ignore this, there is going to be distance between us! :D One way of not ignoring is by commenting! Thanks in anticipation :)
