OK My husband is really great for ignoring me, or should I say not answering me. 6 of one half dozen of the other, its all the same!!
sssoo When you don't get an answer when you ask a question do you assume the answer is:
A: Yes
B: No

I have no idea---my husband does the same thing on a daily basis. It drives me crazy. I even yell his name 2-3-4 times before he'll look at me and give an answer to the question I asked the 1st time. Now tell me why couldn't he have just answered instead of ticking me off??

When someone doesn't answer me I take it as a no.

That's a hard one to answer. :hmm: Sometimes it could mean that, to you, the question isn't worth an answer. Or maybe that you don't take the question seriously. Or that you didn't know the other person really needed an answer. Or that there isn't a yes or no answer to the question. Interaction between people can be very confusing sometimes. :confused: :dizzy:

It is a nope!
Mike does that all the time. Drives me crazy!!!!! Usually it means that he really doesn't want to do something or that he thinks that I'm wrong, but doesn't want to say it 'cause then we'd fight, or if he just doesn't want to deal with it he'll ignore me then too. Just makes it 100x's worse.

Years ago I heard some business tycoon (can't remember who, but I think it was during some seminar) who had several pithy sayings, including "Silence is approval". It's a good one to use if it works to your advantage!
