What should I do?

[james wolf]

I am trying to arrange plans with my so-called friends, but they are ignoring me (on facebook). I say "hey wanna watch that new movie". I'm pretty sure they look at the messsage, see it's from me and leave it. (It doesn't say "seen" but you can look at the first sentence without opening it.) So what can I say without looking desperate, rude or just plain weird?

Aw dang antoher one being ignored by friends. I know exactly how you feel. A friend of mine called up and asked if I wanna go over. he told me to tell him on skype then hung up. I told him and asked him a question and I know he's on, but they just ignore you. What I normally do is just wait, but idk that depends on how long. Another way you could would be to say "I don't know if you got my previous message,etc" but that may sound annoying. Depends and then that also might let them know that your message may be more urgent or important.

Do you know why they're supposedly ignoring you? Maybe phone or text them but i wouldn't say one message on facebook could be considered ignoring. Maybe it just got lost and didn't come up with a notification? If you think something's going on, bring it up with them and ask them about it. It's all up to you to try and sort out why they're not replying because from over the internet there's nothing we can do.

If it's just a message on Facebook then who cares? Call or text them and ask if they want to see that new movie. If they ignore your call/text then maybe you should make new friends.

UGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! i know that exact feeling, reading this is literally making my heart race because this same thing has happened to me. What i have done if it got to long is say, did i d something wrong for you to ignore me? they might just wanna take a break if you hung out with them for a long time. but maybe, they genuinly havent gotten the message, maybe their phone broke or they got into trouble. sometimes i stress over nothing, or stress over something thats a good explanation. So maybe your stressing over something that has a genuine answer, like theyre phone broke :) As i know this can make you very anxious, try to keep your mind off of it

You know, a Facebook message being ignored is not the end of the world (Yes i know the feeling its annoying) but people have their own lives, yes i have turned now plenty of people asking me to go some where etc, in fact i did yesterday, mainly because i'm depressed so i don't want to do anything, but being asked to a nerd club, anyone would turn down anyway aha :P

why don't you text/call them, most people answer those as they are on them more or less 24/7, and is also easier, than accessing Facebook, clicking the message, typing a reply, sometimes get a reply 30 mins late so everything has to be re-organised etc, if your getting the drift

You need to first of all establish why they are supposedly ignoring you.
I would suggest calling them or going around to their house as a call they can ignore but it is hard but if you turn up at their house then they sort of have to talk to you.

To be honest they don't sound like great friends. However, don't pass judgement until you know if they are doing it on purpose.
