    Def rude. No harm in just saying hi and moving on. Takes what 2 seconds out of your day?

    What is the purpose of snubbing if not to be intentionally rude to someone?

    That's the point,i am trying to be hurtful towards her to show that I don't care about her

    You don't show someone that you "don't care" by being "hurtful." You show you don't care by not caring. Intentionally making someone feel badly to perk yourself up makes you a bad person.

    People who don't care don't have to be hurtful to prove anything.

    They're busy not caring.

    So lets say someone who you were cool with said something that hurt your feelings and offended you. You let them know and they apologize but you don't feel like their apology was sincere. Then you start resent the person and lost interest in talking to them. You where not really close friends but more like acquaintances and whenever you see each other ,you say hi to each other

    So my question is, would that be rude to completely ignore this person and walk past them when they say hi to you next time you run into them?
    Are you 12 years old?

    So you want to be rude and you're just double checking with us if this is rude?

    What are you really asking???

    You can acknowledge someone - that's just being civil. But you don't have to be friends.

    Believe me, I've cut plenty of people out of my life who deserved it. But if I have to work with them, it's just better to be civil.

    You weren't even friends- you have already invested WAY to much time into this.

    Just keep nodding and saying hi.

    I'd say it's rude. You don't have to pretend to be best friends with the person, but at least be civil.

    Listen, OP: You've had a conversation where you expressed that you disagreed with her behaviour. She/he apologized. Sincere or not, it's time to move on.

    She/he isn't your friend anymore, that's fine. But to be intentionally rude or try to hurt someone's feelings sits right on the border line of bullying/revenge depending on if you happen to be over the age of 12 or not.

    Instead of letting it get to you every time you see them, realize that you have an entire life filled with things that don't involve that person and that being polite and saying "hi" when it's extended to you is just part of being a social, human being.

    Dear god, I Can't wait until you end up having to work with someone and don't get along with them or something -- it's really just a fact of life.

    Don't be rude. Use your manners. Be a grown up.

    I am SO in. *LOL*


    "I want to be rude to show her I don't care, but need random stranger's input first."


    WAAAAY too much energy is being put into this. If you care that much, you should just tell her, "Listen, I know you apologized, but I still think you're a ***** and really wish nothing to do with you."

    There. Done. Move on.

    Yes it's rude. There is a couple in my town who go out of their way to offend me, but I refuse to lower myself to their level
