You know there are times when you feel so unimportant- ranking last in the priority list of those who rank first in yours. And then sometimes, you try, in vain, to exert your importance on them by trying to ignore them; and I must say, this endeavour, other than being tremendously excruciating, is awfully fruitless. The reason being the fact that those people were not paying enough attention to you in the first place, to have noticed your new stance.
I don't know. How can we so easily let others trample our self-respect. We need to learn- to learn to separate our emotions and our self-esteem and we also need to assign them they appropriate status. And most of all, something we should never forget, we should always try our best not to relinquish our esteem for our emotions even if it demands fighting one's own self, because this is something worth fighting for.
We should just stop bothering our heads off for people who do not care for us- at all. Whereas, I also need to stop addressing my issues with a "we" instead of an "I".

I can so relate with the trying to ignore part!!! I just can't ignore people and trust me, at times to me that's a BIG flaw! I have had to bury my cellphone in various funny places just to prevent myself from waiting for an sms or sending someone one myself. It's highly vexing!
Highly Highly Highly vexing. Copy that! I wish we could go take classes where they teach HOW TO IGNORE PEOPLE, only if there was such a place... =(
