Cold Shoulders

: intentionally cold or unsympathetic treatment
- cold-shoulder transitive verb

This is definitely one of my most dreaded feeling to experience, perhaps it's just my retribution.

Anyway, no matter how discreet you try to avoid a person or however good skills you have in giving people the cold shoulders. To them, it doesn't make a difference, because to them it just hurt as much as it is. I understand sometimes it is hard to reveal your feelings to the other person, however to the other party, revealing your true feelings will definitely caused them less pain.

Generally speaking there are two types of "Cold Shoulder". The first is of the better one, this is done when you are not interested in someone at all, infact it did not even start!

Scenario:
You went clubbing at MoS, got someone not to your likings or calibre, approached you and try to make friends with you. You give him/her the cold shoulders. This is perfectly alright, as this is just telling straight into their faces that you are not interested!

The second one, which I detest the most and it's also the one that hurts. This is where the feelings for each other might already be mutual but suddenly you have a second thoughts on things.

Scenario:
You get to know a person and your friendship has blossom significantly. You have been communicating with each other both verbally and electronically, the sparks is already there, infact the flame might have been burning already. Then suddenly, you have a second thoughts or second opinion towards the other party and you seems to suddenly disappear vanish from the surface of the earth, leaving behind a person who is totally unaware of the situation and stranded.

I am not saying that it's wrong to have second thoughts but I feel it's just wrong to keep the other person waiting or guessing.

If you are feeling guilty of giving people the cold shoulders, it's time for you to apologise!
