Ae you the sort of person who walks away, or who gets back at them by continuing to talk seemingly obliviously?

(Let's assume it's someone you know or can safely guess doesn't have any particular reason for trying to blow you off. They're just being rude.)

This actually happened to me at a wedding. I saw a mutual friend of mine and the bride's (who I was close acquaintances with before we lost touch) and went to make conversation, and she actually said "yeah, hi" when I said hello and turned away. In my case I just walked away, but also because I didn't want to put my mutual friend in the middle of something on her wedding day. Not sure what I would've done otherwise, though.

^SA I should've worded that better. The person and I knew each other, and shared a mutual friend, who was the bride.

Having been blown off rudely by many, many people in my life, I'm def a walk-away kind of person. If they aren't interested, what is the point?

I just walk away. I have more enjoyable things to do than waste my time talking to someone who doesn't want to talk to me.

I usually say "excuse you?" Very pointedly then walk away or talk to the other person.

Yeah, no, I absolutely walk away as fast as possible. My view is that it's entirely reasonable for anyone to want to avoid contact with me at any time, and so I try to make sure that people always have that option and that I'm respecting it.

It depends on what they were doing. Was she just standing in a corner? I'd walk away. Was she talking to someone/on her phone/busy? I'd wait until she is not engaged and then talk.

She could have just been deep in thought and didn't really hear what you said.

I just leave them be. Unless this is a repeated thing where I actually get the impression this person doesn't like me, I try not to let it bother me or take it personally. After all, they might not be in the mood, in their own thoughts, and also not everyone has to like me either.

It's not like I haven't been in those unconversational moods, and I've even made it a point to be clearly unapproachable so folk will leave me alone, or just flat out saying I'm not in the mood (in which case, yeah, a person who insists I must must must engage with them is going to irritate me.).

I walk away. Assuming they're a friend I figure they're having a glazed over moment or something. Unless this is like 75% of our interactions then I walk away all together :p

Er, not sure why I'd insist on dragging out a conversation with someone who doesn't want to talk to me. It seems pretty passive aggressive and wastes my time as well as theirs.
