Why are two people who like each other, ignoring each other?

Question - (5 January 2011) 4 Answers - (Newest, 6 January 2011)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Hey guys.

Can you tell me why two people that have an intense attraction for each other and who have been friendly in the past are now ignoring one another? They still have these feelings but are both ignoring each other. Is this not high school? Any reasons why they would be doing this? And how do you get over being attracted to someone you don't want to be attracted to when you have to see them all the time?

Thanks!

Hi guys. These two people are both married. They work in the same office. Does this help answer the question better?

because one of the people isn't as attracted and probably more attracted to someone else. probably doesn't want to hurt your feelings and hopes you can figure it out without him breaking the bad news?

A female reader, anonymous, writes (5 January 2011):

I would say they are ignoring each other because they are already married or in a committed relationship with other people and are thus trying to not let the attraction develop into an affair.

either that or they had a fight over something and are mad at each other

petina1 agony auntI would presume that one of these people are now embarking on a relationship with someone else and feel they have to be loyal to them. To try and get over an attraction when you work with someone or see them all the time takes a lot of inner strength and it can be done by talking your self into it, but like i say, takes a lot of strength and other distractions to maintain it. Never show them your weakness, if you need to get it out of your system with a good cry, do it at home away from them, but back on the ball the next day, be strong.
