Being ignored because you have no control over that.

As much as I'm a mouthy little shit I don't like confrontation. Purely based on the abusive ex. I don't mind having a pop don't get me wrong, but it takes all my self control not to explode when I get shouted at.

So, if I'm able to go full out with the person who's shouting then bring it on, if I'm not in a position where I can release the beast then I'd prefer to be ignored.

What's worse is probably not understanding why you're being ignored or shouted at.

"Being ignored or being shouted at?"

It depends.

Mostly, I’d rather be ignored. It’s rare for me to not know why somebody is pissed off with me. If it’s something I did wrong, somebody telling me what I already know is just going to piss me off. If it’s something practical, I can go about fixing it.

If I have no idea what I’m supposed to have done wrong, and the other person is unwilling to tell me, then it really depends on my mood. Maybe I’m happy to let them sit there and have whatever it is eating away at them. Or maybe I want to know, so I know if I can fix it. In which case, shout away.

Yeah I guess it depends the reasoning. For me I hate being ignored if I feel like I'm being misunderstood. I would prefer the chance to explain myself and my feelings.

But on the other hand I don't deal well with confrontation. If I feel I'm being attacked I'm more likely to retreat into myself and say nothing.

For me it's more about not allowing myself to be bullied and not allowing people to think I'm a walk over.

I also enjoy the "dude, if I gave a shit about what you think I'd stand here and listen, but I'm all out of fucks and I've already taken a dump this morning"

Being ignored is way worse, being ignored actually does things to me, with no explanation my little brain goes into overdrive and thinks of thousands of things I may have done to warrant being ignored.

Being shouted at doesn't bother me in the slightest no matter what context. I remember Xmas 2016 when I was in iceland (the shop) and some woman tried taking the last box of sticky chicken skewers out of my actual hand, she started screaming at me that she saw them first and calling me an f'ing cheeky bitch, I had to put the box under my armpit to stop her clawing at it and just said to her (quietly cos I was embarrassed) I'll stick you in that freezer now you mad cunt, I picked them up first now fuck off. Situation went under control then when one of the workers came running down the aisle with the metal trolley to restock the sticky chicken skewers.

Actually if someone shouted at me - I would just ignore them. If and when they calmed down, I may consider unignoring them

I don’t give anyone the right to shout at me. They can disagree in a conversational tone. Shooting no no

Hiding in the shadows

Depends on the situation, and the person.

In my job I often have to shout, be quite aggressive & forceful.

I'll be the loudest person going if I'm defending something, but in my personal life, as someone who spent many many years being shouted at I hate it.

It scares me.

But being ignored, can be much worse.

Shouting isn't the best way to deal with anything, but you can't resolve any issue if you don't communicate.

I lived in the same house as my step-father and when he had an argument with my mum and it looked like it was going to get physical i shouted at him which he took exception to and told me to fuck off. He made up with my mum but i ignored him for a year. Just totally blanked him and looked through him. It was awful for my mum, made things awkward, but i wasn’t having any of it.

I’m also capable of shouting when i have to, but takes a lot for me to get shouty unless i’m hormonal.

With the people closest to you and the ones you care about, then nothing can ever be sorted by sitting in silence and being ignored. I'm not saying shouting can help sort it either, but at least they are acknowledging that you are there.

With anyone who I don't really care about, I would rather be ignored than shouted at.

I think the issue with that comparison is that both sides of it are conditional. As in being ignored by a distant friend isn’t like being ignored by a loved one. And being shouted at by a stranger doesn’t hurt anything like being shouted at by a loved one.

Neither are pleasant to have directed at you. If you're ignoring me, I'll go and do my own thing until you're ready to communicate with me in a productive way. Ignoring me has already conveyed to me that your pissed off. If you're shouting, I might let you shout at me until you run out of steam. Some people need to shout and get it out of their system. Hopefully we can then concerntrate on the solution.

If I had to choose, I'll go for being ignored. It's so much easier to get on with other things while being ignored.
