Girl ignores: 9 reasons
Women are not used to ignoring men. And if your girlfriend ignores you, there is probably a reason that explains this behavior.
A woman is not always eager to confront, and if she has anger settled in her soul and you are its source, instead of fighting and scandals you may feel the use of a completely different feminine tactic – ignoring.
When you ask a girl what’s wrong and she says “nothing” or “everything’s fine,” be sure it’s not.
You can ask again a thousand times, but your date will still be able to get away with it.
If your girlfriend is ignoring you, there could be several reasons. So don’t jump to conclusions in trying to figure out what’s going on.
Let the situation go and let things run their course. Do not do the interrogation, blow up her phone with your calls and become intrusive. This approach will only make the girl angry and show your weakness.
It is best to ask what’s wrong, then pause and ask again. Your girlfriend will have time to cool her anger and return to your arms.
Why a girl might ignore
1. she is angry at something you did
Punishing a man with silence for an act he has done is a technique often used by women.
You may well have said something offensive in passing, not asked how her day was, or put your socks in the fridge next to her yogurt, for example.
If this is the reason for ignoring her, the problem will be over quickly enough.
She wants more of your attention.
Seemingly ridiculous. But if a girl is ignoring you, she may actually just need your attention without getting it enough.
It’s a kind of hidden manifesto in an attempt to get through to the male mind.
She wants you to notice a change in her behavior and to turn things in a positive direction.
If you show care and attention, then everything should go back to normal.
3. Hormonal surges
If the girl is ignoring you, it is possible that the reason for this is her period.
Changes in hormonal backgrounds constantly affect a woman’s mood and behavior.
Girls simply lose the ability to be themselves.
In this case, you should not worry too much, because after a couple of days, trouble will stop by itself.
She doesn’t love you.
Some girls don’t have the maturity to tell their boyfriend that they have fallen out of love and don’t want to be together with him anymore.
If she’s been ignoring you for a long time, it may be time to think about ending the relationship.
If she does not respond to your text messages, phone calls and generally avoids you, most likely, it’s time to rediscover the world of freedom and move on.
In this case, strictly forbidden to run after a girl and humiliate yourself in front of her.
Keep in mind that some women can simply challenge you.
So instead of running after a girl or trying to figure something out, ignore her in return.
But in general, in this scenario, it is at least an attempt at manipulation, and at most it is the end of your relationship.
In any case, you should act firmly, without losing your sense of dignity and with the least amount of loss to yourself.
5. A difficult stage in her life
If a woman is going through a difficult time in her life, she may shut down and activate the ignoring mechanism.
If she’s having a difficult time with her mother, she’s been fired from her job, or a tragedy happened to a close friend, for example, her ability to communicate with the rest of the world may be drastically reduced.
Assuming that you don’t need to delve into her problem, she may try to deal with it on her own without your involvement.
Try not to take the girl’s attitude personally, and in time things will work out.
6. Stress .
When people are stressed, they can’t immediately cope with the situation.
To overcome the crisis state, they have to focus on the problem and block out all distractions, including the people around them.
If you notice that you are not the only one who is the object of neglect, it probably has nothing to do with you.
In time, the girl will stop ignoring you and let you back into her life.
7. She doubts her feelings.
It is quite possible that people start to reevaluate their relationship.
If things between you and your girlfriend have been kind of bland and dull lately, she may think that you’re not “the one” and there are better options.
If your girlfriend is ignoring you, she may be concerned about the quality of your relationship.
She may want something more from the relationship that you can’t or won’t give her.
As difficult as it may be, try to remain calm and cool-blooded.
Instead of going after the girl, give her the personal space she needs, and the girlfriend will probably realize what she’ll lose when you’re not around.
Pressuring a girl to talk and figure things out won’t help solve the problem. Such actions have the potential to push your girlfriend away even more.
8. Relationships don’t develop
If you have been together with your girlfriend for a long time and the relationship, without developing, is stuck at a stage far from family bonds, your girlfriend may start ignoring you because she is upset that you are not taking the next step.
There comes a point in a girl’s life when she looks around and sees her girlfriends getting married.
And if you think a formal relationship is not important to your girlfriend, you are very much mistaken.
You have a choice: keep the relationship and move forward with your girlfriend, but in a new status, or keep moving on alone in search of someone new.
9. You are an insensitive chump.
If a girl loves you, wants to be there for you, is constantly reaching out to you and trying to tell you how she’s feeling and what’s bothering her, and you seem completely insensitive to her needs or deny her feelings altogether, she might start ignoring you because she’ll draw the perfectly logical conclusion, “if he doesn’t want anything, why should I care about anything?”
If you haven’t been listening much to your girlfriend’s feelings or, even worse, hurting the girl, the only way to stop ignoring her is to start listening to the girl and have a constructive dialogue.
To wrap it up.
If you feel that your girlfriend is ignoring you, there is bound to be some reason. Ask her what it is?
If the girl refuses to answer you, then you should either try to figure out what you did wrong or step back and give her personal space.
Running after a girl or making scandals is not the answer. Let her come to her senses and decide what she wants and what really bothers her.
In case you are sure that there is no obvious guilt behind you, then it is very likely that you can claim manipulation from the girl.
This is not good, and such behavior you should severely suppress.

You will never know what is really in her head.
There are very cruel personalities do not know how to forgive them hard to get through to them.
“If you are sure that there is no obvious guilt for you, then it is very likely that you are being manipulated by the girl. This is not good, and this behavior should be dealt with severely.” – What are some ways to stop it?
Calmly tell the girl: “You don’t like this situation. And if she wants to continue to be silent, well, let her be silent, you will not touch her, she will talk when she wants to. And if something serious happens, you are ready to discuss and solve the problem. Then see how the situation develops. If the girl will continue to remain silent for a long time and so on or repeat something similar in the future, decide whether you want to continue communicating with this girl. A relationship should bring you joy, and if it doesn’t, break it off, you will eventually find another person who suits you both.
I hurt the girl, I apologized, ignored her, what can I do?
You can forget about the relationship with this girl, find another one.
Girl, do you think it’s a T-shirt or sneakers? You wear it and change it for a new one? That’s a bummer. Spiritually impoverished people. That’s the kind of guy all the girls will sooner or later ignore.
You’re setting the stage for reliable manipulation.
Ha-ha-ha same thing.
write what….-that she would think, a live example: If you continue to ignore me, I will swallow validolka, etc.
Zhorik, to ignore in response, this is the stupidest thing you can do at this stage, this is the way to nowhere. The problem must be addressed, not exacerbated.
No one will ever understand women. I have a similar situation. The only difference is that we are friends. We communicated. Everything was normal. But for the last three days I have been rigidly ignored. The interesting thing is that there was no reason for this behavior. One word, WOMEN.
She probably doesn’t want to be just a friend anymore.
Exactly the same situation, only we had everything going for a relationship and distance separates us.
I have a similar situation.Only ignored for 10 days.Wanted to come first to say what the nonsense.Then I thought let her mind all will be in its place.And now a stable evening remember her.Bothers everywhere banned.
It’s like it’s written about me.
The same situation, I called her, met her, dressed normally, offered her flowers, said goodbye, and ignored her if she does not write, let her go to hell, I will not run after her
Guys, we are all right, but everyone has a different situation, we should look at the model of behavior of both, well, that is my opinion.
Yeah, they want to take the man for themselves. And if it doesn’t work out, they’re looking for the next potential victim. I don’t trust women. There’s always secrets, dark stories coming out. It’s just so bad. Black widows.
They’re just bored when it’s good. They want a man’s brain sucked out of them.
Looks like option 7 is good enough for me.
Yeah, now I know what kind of bitch… Mine has confused me… Toughly ignores the second week, does not answer, hangs up, but dedicates me love statuses in kontakte and each of his avatar with hearts in fact the language of images confesses his love. Well all is clear when the love and ignore separately, there is no question, but when together, it is the worst trash … I already did not know what to think in Inet, look for answers, and it seems found … Numbers 2 and 9 as I think the closest to the cause of her strange behavior. I have the bug, we will fix it today. Special thanks to the author for the socks in the fridge.)
Here’s my story. It’s been about half a year since I’ve had my eye on a girl at work. She relatively not long ago got a job at our firm. I pulled myself together, and one day decided to approach her, we knew each other. But only as employees. I asked her to go for a walk on the weekend, just to talk. She freaked out, covered her mouth with her hand, and started saying things like, “no, no,” – “I’m always busy on weekends”… and quickly went off somewhere. I was not prepared for such a reaction, I was just shocked ! O_O I felt ashamed and left too. I had just finished my work day. The next day, I was fine. I think I will come over and apologize for my behavior, maybe I offended something ? So I went over and apologized. And she said: “No, it’s ok, I got scared and ran away. I don’t even remember what I said to you yesterday.” I told her back: – “I’m surprised myself. Anyway, I asked her if she had watsap. – She said yes. Said can she add me as a friend? Said she needed my number, I dictated it to her, she added me. That same evening, I texted her. We talked a little and went to bed. On the third day she said hello to me, everything was as usual. In the evening I wrote to her again; she didn’t answer. I thought that she was busy and did not write further. The next day she ignored me, she didn’t look in my direction as if I wasn’t there. With others, she would talk to me, but she did not. I did not bombard her with messages for three days of ignoring. I sent her a couple of text messages and a couple of music videos with relaxing, beautiful music. That’s it. It’s like the fourth day of silence. On the status shows that goes once a day. Surely he sees everything. Thought even two days ago that she did not like me or does not want to communicate with me. Honestly, I’m not one hundred percent sure. It is much easier to talk to me in person than over the Internet and on the phone. In principle, I myself have not had time to do something wrong. Well, girls are subtle psychologists, maybe that is what did not do, and maybe I am not interested in her and thus she tells me “no. I do not know, I am straightforward. I like to tell it like it is, although it doesn’t always work out. I’m not upset and I wish you to hold your own. However, when you really like a girl and haven’t really gotten to know her, it’s a little disturbing.
Maybe the girl is just shy and you are in too much of a hurry and scare her, maybe you need to tone it down.
If there are mutual feelings and the girl loves you, there won’t be all this mumbo jumbo. just like if the girl will just have brains. and all this psychological stuff – they are purely to explain the behavior of fools, normal people are normal and will deal with each other
It’s a good thing I gave up talking to girls a long time ago. It is better to die alone than all these resentments, jealousies and other pranks.
What to Do If a Girl Is Highly Ignored – Top 10 Tips
Most of us have encountered this situation: the correspondence is going well, both of us seem to be happy with the communication, and then the girl stops answering. She might be distracted for half an hour, or she might not say anything even the next day. How to understand that a girl purposely avoids communication, what are the signs of ignoring and how to be if a girl ignores – read the article. And do not lose heart: there is still a chance to fix everything.
What to write if you are ignored on the dating site, in SMS, in VK or Odnoklassniki, in Vatsap, do not pick up the phone
A girl does not respond to messages. What to do?
First of all, do not raise the alarm too early. Adults tend to mind their own business, so if she is silent for less than an hour, do not flood her with a ton of questions about where she is missing, and appeals to get back into correspondence.
Not sure if the girl is only communicating with you? Check her social networks with Scanprofile and find out the truth! By analyzing her competitors you will be able to show your best side.
How do you know if you are being ignored at all?
- There is no answer for quite a long time – more than an hour.
- The girl appears online, conducts notable activity on the page: posts something, writes in group chats.
- You see her activity on other sites.
- You write her new messages after the silence, but she doesn’t read them.
The general strategy for behavior in such cases is to gently get the girl’s attention and find out what the problem is. To do this, you need to ask briefly and constructively what happened. Read below for examples of how to do this.
Why is she not answering? 8 possible reasons
Most often, girls do not just shut up if communicating with you was interesting and pleasant. If a woman has stopped responding to messages, then something has gone wrong. Here are 8 possible reasons why a girl ignores your messages in VK or other messengers and social networks.
- She’s just busy . The most obvious and fairly common reason.
- The conversation has come to a standstill: the topic has exhausted itself, there were no new questions.
- You asked a difficult question that she can’t answer on the spot.
- You said something wrong or offended.
- She has learned something about you that discourages her.
- You reacted in a way that she didn’t expect and now she isn’t sure she wants to communicate.
- There is a more interesting person to talk to.
- She’s deliberately decided to ignore you and see what happens – to see how you behave in these situations and how much you want to communicate.
What to do to make things right
Let’s simulate the situation: three hours have passed since the last message, and she’s not talking. We tell you how to get out of ignoring a girl.
To find out the truth about how your sweetheart feels about you and to solve your love problems is now easy! And even without leaving your home. You will be helped by a professional tarot reader with extensive experience. Ask the cards everything that interests you! And no more agonizing over whether she loves you or not, and why she’s not responding!
For starters, look at the last few messages: did you ask her anything? Did she answer the question? Did you say anything that might have offended her? If she just doesn’t answer the question, offer to change the subject. If there’s something there that might have seemed offensive, clarify if it’s okay and ask directly if you offended her.
Demonstrate a desire to continue communicating, but don’t be too intrusive. Don’t send a dozen post-it notes and messages like “where did you go?”, “why aren’t you answering?”, “where are you?”, “come back, I forgive you”, or “why aren’t you saying anything? And especially avoid phrases like “this is the end, right?”, “that’s it, I’m over for you now?” and the like.
Text her on another messenger, text her, or call her if there’s a phone number. But don’t do it all at once. If she’s been silent for an hour and a half, don’t send all the messages in all the resources at once, dialing her number once you’ve dealt with the mailing list. Stretch out your persistence and give her a chance to respond before you’ve done everything possible – this is first, more effective, and second, you won’t seem like a maniac.
Sometimes a woman does not respond to a text message for no apparent reason, but most likely there is a reason after all. Try to find out what it is. Reasons for a sudden girl’s ignoring may vary, but you need to react in the same way.
What to write if you are ignored on the dating site, in SMS, in VK or Odnoklassniki, in Vatsap, do not pick up the phone
If a woman is suddenly ignored in correspondence, you need to remind yourself. The optimal way to do this – once ask where she disappeared to and clarify whether everything is all right. You can do it verbatim: “Where are you going? Everything’s fine, should we keep in touch?”
Suggest another topic of conversation:
- Share the latest news.
- Ask about something not even related to the previous topic. Use questions that people like to answer. For example, everyone loves their pets, so just post “do you have pets?”
- Post a photo (memes are great) or music
- If you’re confident in communicating and have been texting for a while, and especially if you’ve seen each other before and it went well, buy a couple movie tickets, take a picture of them, and write “got tickets to a comedy (or movie title). Shall we go?” Invite them to your favorite cafe or restaurant. Suggest some leisure, an excuse to meet.
Win a girl’s attention with what she likes. And do you know what girls love more than anything else? Tasty food! Order her a set of rolls from Sushi Master and she’s yours. Such a gift won’t hurt your wallet: there’s always a lot of promotions and the quality is always high. The girl will definitely be delighted with such a step!
Chances are, the girl’s abrupt ignoring means something. Just be human. Don’t get too emotional. Give compliments. Show an interest in communicating, a desire to get it back, but don’t act like a maniac.
If the ignoring is happening in messengers – on facebook, on classmates, on textsap, try to call her. This is a more decisive move that often works. If you get an answering machine, leave a message. She’ll be able to listen to it without letting you know, as opposed to reading her correspondence. This will give her a chance to think before you see that the messages have been read and start writing new ones.
You’re not alone: concrete examples from life and solutions
Many people have experienced female ignoring, and it does not always mean that you have stopped communicating forever. A girl can be put off by many things: from some truth about you to a ribald joke. If she communicated with you before, and you were a good conversationalist, surely communication can be restored. We show you what to do if a girl does not respond to messages on facebook.
A real case : a young man asked for a photo of a girl and in response praised not her eyes, hair or smile, but her breasts. She decides that he is only interested in sex, while she wants first of all to communicate and have a nice time. That’s a good reason not to respond: she’s both offended and upset, even though she now knows she has cool breasts. How do you get out of the situation? If you continue the subject and write “would like to get to know her better,” the girl is unlikely to ever reconnect. But the guy realizes that he did something wrong, and writes, “I’m sorry if I seemed rude. Breasts aren’t the main thing, it’s just that I noticed it right away. Your hair is very pretty, is it a natural color?” Since the communication was going fine before, the girl softened and responded.
Another example: the communication started only yesterday, there are still few messages, and the guy invites her to visit him. The girl is frightened because she doesn’t know him yet. After a couple of hours of silence the guy writes “I’m sorry, I just like you a lot and I’m sure we’ll get along. But if you want, let’s postpone the meeting and chat online for now.” Then he just starts another, more neutral topic, and the girl calms down and goes back to texting.
The third case is to show that even in critical situations things can be fixed. The girl has gone silent at some point, and the guy has no idea why. He writes to her on the site where they communicated, finds her on facebook, texts her there, texts her on messenger, sends her texts. It takes a day, no result, total ignoring. He calls, gets on the answering machine and leaves a message: “I do not know what went wrong, but I want to continue to communicate. I am not a very good stalker, so I will not bore you after the call. Please answer me on a convenient messenger. How about a movie this weekend?” An adequate approach after such persistence returns the favor of most girls.
Don’t do this: ways to get out of a situation that will make it worse
Mistakes that are often made, but definitely won’t lead to anything good:
- Intrusiveness . Dozens of messages to every available messenger. Monotonous and meaningless repetitive questions about where the girl is missing and equally monotonous entreaties to come back. It looks like hysteria, and nobody likes a hysterical girl.
- Passive aggression . All these messages along the lines of “okay, now I see how important I am to you, yeah”, “you don’t want to communicate – you should have said so”, “now you’re silent? Good luck”, “fine, let’s keep quiet for another six months”. No one begins to think better of the person after that.
- Threats . Quite an obvious point, but many do not see the difference between “where do you usually communicate, through which messenger to contact?” and “I will not leave you alone, I will write everywhere and call every day. Threats are the best way to lose the girl immediately and for sure.
- The only message like “if you want to communicate – write. She’s already ignoring you and doesn’t want to. Without your activity nothing will change.
- Anxiety is all over your contact list . Do you have mutual acquaintances? Call everyone and let them know that the lady of your heart has disappeared off your radar. She’ll be thrilled that half the company knows she hasn’t responded to you. You are not a parent who has lost a child who has gone for a walk. You are two adults, solve the problem without involving third parties.
How to communicate so that the girl does not even think about ignoring
Very simple: Be polite, considerate and interesting. Talk about neutral topics at first, avoid something completely personal like past partners and something completely suspicious like weight and breast size. Be interested in her and don’t be afraid to talk about yourself. Once communication is established, become bolder: call for meetings in public places like cafes and movies, promise surprises and make them, be charming.
It didn’t work out: how to accept and move on
You’ve done everything: politely made yourself known in all messengers in turn, apologized in advance, showed an adequate desire to communicate further, and she never responded. Well, it happens. Even if you still haven’t figured out what’s wrong, at that point it’s worth stopping and switching to another girl you can find through our dating rating.
That’s really what happens at times. But you’re not making a portfolio, so you don’t need to fill out the girl’s profile exactly: when you started communicating, when you stopped, why, what was good, what was bad. It’s a shame that contact has been cut off, but it’s not a disaster. Unless she owed you a large sum of money or something like that, of course.
It was just a girl you correspond with. There are dozens, hundreds more on social networks and dating sites that you can start chatting with. You didn’t lose the last girl on the planet, or even the last good one. It wasn’t the last day of your life.
Don’t start building global theories about why girls don’t respond to dating sites. And especially don’t ask her about it. Just accept the fact that you don’t communicate with this girl anymore, realize this fact and communicate with others. Are you sure that communication will not continue – write to her what you think, even if it hurts. If you’re really angry, tell your friends what a bitch she is. A little encouragement and you’re back on track.
Conclusion
Girls are often ignored in correspondence. If she’s silent for an hour – there’s no tragedy in that. Just let her know, apologize if you said something offensive, suggest another topic of conversation. If that doesn’t work, text her on other messengers or call her. If that doesn’t work either – no problem. Leave the correspondence and switch to other girls. Do not think about her: if she wants to continue communicating – she’ll come back, if not – you’ll have someone to talk to without her.
