Is ignoring someone purposely a form of control?

I've tried to talk to this one guy and apologize for saying something in anger.. I've left two voicemails, he hasn't replied back. I am genuinely sorry and i don't think he cares..





Why can't he atleast reply back, anything!?Is ignoring someone purposely a form of control?
I think he is TRYING to teach you a lesson. He wants you to be VERY sorry for what you did, and probably won't ignore you until you apologize in person. Sometimes it depends on what you actually said out of anger. But most likely, this person is probably full of themselves. %26amp;+ or sometimes, ppl just need you to ignore them back and act like you don't care to see how sorry you were .Is ignoring someone purposely a form of control?
Sounds like he's controlling and a little abusive. You don't say what kind of relationship it is but if it's the bf kind, the best thing is to just move on. He's trying to punish you for whatever it is that you said, and that's simply immature and childish. The ';silent treatment'; is actually a form of emotional abuse, and the sooner you realize that the better off you'll be.


The best thing you can do is to get on with your life, and put him where he deserves to be - behind you. If you don't you'll forever be apologizing. The mature thing for him to have done was to acknowledge your apology and move on with the relationship. Since he hasn't drop him as a person in your life.


Just learn from this episode, and try to remember a more appropriate way to communicate your anger.
never thought of it like that but I do think you may be right! But you have tried to apologize so that makes you the better person, in my opinion, so drop it now it's his lose. Move on into the future and learn from your mistakes.
Let it go. Sounds like it might be control. Who wants to be controlled by another? Don't bother any more and move on to bigger and better things.
he might be self centered and doesnt give a piece of shizz about you, but he could also be so fed up. it will take time.
