Question

My sister always pushes me for no reason. What is the best way to get revenge that will make her even angrier?

Community Answer

Push her back and say, "How does that feel?" and walk away. When you walk away, don't show any emotion.

Question

How do I ignore people who are talking behind my back?

Community Answer

Try to realize they aren't going to do anything for you in life and that you won't even remember them in a certain part of your life. Find a way to let it go and move forward.

Question

How can I ignore an annoying person if they're spreading secrets and won't stop being annoying?

Let them know that what they are doing is wrong, and if they continue to spread secrets, tell a trusted adult about it so they can help.

Question

How do you ignore someone who betrayed you and who doesn't want to be your friend anymore, yet acts like everything is fine?

Giselle DaSilva

Community Answer

If the person is acting as if everything is fine, then clearly they don’t want drama. That’s probably for the best. If you want to ditch the weird feeling between you two, ask to talk at lunch or meet up after school. Another reason your friend is acting as if all is normal might be because he or she thinks you forgive them. It’s likely to cause more drama if you ignore them all the sudden. It’s hard, but you have to tell the person how you feel. If you don’t, in a way you're actually betraying them.

Question

How do I deal with an annoying aunt who won't leave me alone?

Giselle DaSilva

Community Answer

Your aunt probably just wants to be more involved in your life. Find time to be with her. Then you don’t have to work around her schedule. If you spend time with her every once in a while, she most likely won’t bother you when you need, or want to be alone. If she does get too intrusive despite spending some time with her, tell her you only have so much time to spare each week/month because of school commitments.

Question

I live with annoying people and I'm usually hard to anger but I'm almost at my limit. How do I ignore these people?

Giselle DaSilva

Community Answer

It’s hard to ignore people you’re with 24/7. Make plans to get out of the house, and try to keep a little more busy at home. If they know they’re bothering you, set them straight. If they don’t stop, then you have every right to walk out. If they don’t know they’re bothering you, it’s up to you to tell them.

Question

How can l ingore to my friend at school?

Sawyer Smith

Community Answer

If you don't want to be rude, run up to another group of friends and just try to focus on what they're talking about. And if you just want to get them away, straight up say, "dude can you please stop it's kinda annoying".

My neighbor constanly annoys me and she is rude to my sister. My mom thinks we like her, but we both don't. My parents like her parents, and I don't want to seem rude. What should I do?

Sawyer Smith

Community Answer

You should just ignore or you can walk away and avoid them. If you don't want to talk or be with them, then you don't have to.
