She suddenly stopped talking to me; what's the problem?
Ok, I have been talking/emailing/texting this girl at work for about 8 months. I asked her out about 5 months ago and she basically said no by giving me a weak excuse and saying she let me know when she is available. Which I am fine with. We kept talking and laughing etc... I'm pretty sure she likes me(or at least did at some point), but she has been hurt in the past and she is really shy. Anyway our exchanges have always been polite and had a certain feeling to them. She always smile at me and I do the same to her when we each other at work. Here's the thing; something went wrong about 10 days ago, and about 4 days ago she suddenly stopped talking to me or even looking at me. She did look at me once only to give a fake smile. I sent about 4 emails to her over the past 10 days or so and she didn't reply to a single one. She always replied before. I sent her a text and she ignored it. So I decided to call her about 5 days ago. I was shocked she picked up the phone. Anyway we talked and said everything is fine and so on. But she did say that she never has time to do anything. A rather odd bit of random info. So I sent her an email later that night about random things. She never replied. No big deal, right. Well I see her at work and she totally walks away from me (more than once) now. I can sense she has some feelings of awkwardness towards me. Almost like I am an annoyance or bother to associate with. I ignored it for a couple of days, but then decided to text her to see if everything is ok. She said everything is fine and that she is my friend yada yada yada... Next day at work and the same thing happens. Just a cold shoulder. Oh I forgot to say, when she does text me back they are really short answers. Here is another thing that is puzzling. Her co-worker friends keep telling me to ask her out. I try to keep everything about her private because she is so shy and private. I fed them an excuse to quiet them by saying I doubt I am her type. I didn't want to tell them I asked her out already and she said no. I didn't want rumors spreading. But they keep asking me saying she won't say no, but I know that is not true or at least I am pretty sure it's not true. They wouldn't really know because this girl doesn't talk about who she does and doesn't like. So what's the problem here?
When someone suddenly stops talking to you without any reason what does this mean?
It could mean a multitude of things !1)They used to enjoy your company and your conversations but now they no longer do .2) You did something that upset them terribly and they don't think its worth explaining to you what the mistake was.3) They had an ulterior motive right from the beginning and that's why they started talking to you ! Now either the purpose is solved or it is no loger necessary.4) They had a crush on you thinking you were single but they realised you are comitted and are no longer interested in you .5) They just now got to know a part of your character that they completely loathe.6) They were your pen or chat friends, you met recently and your face-to -face personality and behaviour was completely different from what it used to be over messages, and they don't like it .7) They hated you from the beginning , wanted to teach you that it hurts to suddenly stop talking especially after you’ve been close.8) Your common acquaintances said something really bad about you that they no longer want to talk to you .9) They want you to miss them .10) They're playing a prank .11) They want to give you a surprise in the near future and they think not talking to you for sometime before that and then attempting a thoughtful gesture , adds to that element of surprise .12) They're reeeeaaaaaaallllllllyyyyyy busy .13) They are somehow mentally depressed and are distancing themselves from everyone not just you .14) They made a huge mistake, don't have the guts to own up and also can't bear to hide it from you when you talk , so they avoid you completely .15 ) They already told you the reason symbolically before they stopped talking , but you didn't catch it.
Is it normal for my 3-year-old son not to talk?
Hi! I have the same question. However , my daughter is now 3 yrs 3 months and has been in speech therapy for a year. We first had first steps come to our house , which my daughter didn't like abc most of the time was just looking for me or not doing what the ST was doing. So 8 months ago , we started private clinic sessions and we use our insurance. We also took her to a child developmental specialist who diagnosed her with GDD. Global developmental delay. She was born at 35 weeks. She always was late on all of her milestones by 3 months past the normal range. Walked at 16 months. She also turns her feet in due to weak ankles due to low tone. We have had blood work done on her and nothing shows abnormal. So she was doing private speech 6 months or so twice a week. Then she got accepted into our school systems early childhood education program that starts at 3. She has been going a little over 2 months. She has really showed improvement in overall behavior. Like she picks up her toys and is a little more listening. But her speech is still only babbles. No mama or dada. She gets so frustrated not being able to tell us her wants and needs. She does some sign language but the school has a communication board they use in the classroom and they say she has caught on fast and uses it just like the other kids. They are going to send one home soon for us to use. She still does private speech in a clinic once a week and she gets ST at school. The ST at the clinic says she might have apraxia. I just want her to be able to talk so bad so I understand where you are coming from ! I hate to see her struggle. We are due to go back to developmental dr in June no she's pushing for a MRI. I'm so scared !! The doctor said it will show if her brain that Handles speech fully formed. I'm a wreck always worrying about her. Any feedback from anyone would be so appreciated!
How do I start talking to a friend who stopped talking to me months ago? I really miss him.
A2A.I've been in this situation. I can narrate you my story, I hope it helps:He was my best friend. I'd done something in good faith, but it ricocheted. And he stopped talking to me. Completely.I missed him, terribly. And, moreover I was at fault. I felt miserable. My calls went unnoticed, texts went unanswered. I kept calling, but in vain. And, I hadn't faced such rejection from anyone, ever! Like a true Taurean, I didn't give up. But I'm a tough nut to crack. I was determined atleast, to make my apology heard. Eventually, I got tired. I thought it was better to give him the space he required, and wait for his decision. I stopped calling, eventhough I missed talking to him. After a long span of two and a half months, he called back. I'd never felt such strong emotions. The eternal feeling of being forgiven; it was blissful. We cleared our misunderstandings. Things got fine, we moved past those stuffs, and we're best of friends even now. Now, coming back to your question, I'd like to say; first find out why did he stop talking to you, what created the rift. If the fault lies within you, try to talk to him. Don't be afraid of facing rejection. Shun your ego, express yourself, and go extra miles to save your friendship. Moreover, give him time, let him get past the ill-feelings. Things will get back to normal. :) Good luck!
Is it possible to get my ex-girlfriend back after 4 months of no contact?
I’ve got my ex back after 8 MONTHS! EIGHT! And I was a desperate case.Every single person was telling me to move on and release this feelings, still I didn’t listen to anyone and I’ve got what I knew was not finished.If you have done the no contact that’s a good thing, and I guess you’re the one who has been dumped and I’ll also tell you that it’s a good thing. Normally whoever was dumped will find a way to get better by doing things for him self, this it’s called self surviving!In the 4th month you’re probably struggling between moments of feeling normal again by yourself and moments of extreme desperation of wanting her back to feel hole again. That’s normal. Or the worst scenario you’re accepting the relationship it’s over and you’re suffering like there is no tomorrow ( but if you’re here on Quora, it means you’re not ready to let go).Now what I can tell you from my personal experience:-if you 2 had a strong relationship, one of the 2 will fall and contact the other one, if there is still resentment and anger, 4 months are NOT enough.-If she moved on to the next one it’s even better, soon the new relationship will reveal its falls and she’ll come contact you ( somehow) as soon as this will happen. Than it’s gonna be your time to reject. Rejection normally attracts people!Good luck! You’ll be fine in any way!
My 2 years 3 month child still doesn't speak. Should I be worried?
Usually newborns are screened for hearing at birth. And later in life, during the paediatrician visits for immunization or regular checkups, if the doctor sees any red flags for developmental milestones, they would recommend or suggest ways.That said, every child is different and reaches their milestones at different ages. A normal child this age would say two to three words short sentences and would have at least a hundred words in their vocabulary, even if the child does not necessarily uses those words. I was concerned for my baby as he would not speak until about 2 years. I asked the doctor and was referred to a speech therapist because I was scared to death. The therapist mentioned many reasons, one of those being since he is the youngest in the family and gets his way out without talking much, he does not feel the NEED to communicate using words because his needs are met without asking. So I was asked to question when he babbles. Do you want milk or water? Do you want to sleep or play? Do you want yellow or purple? In short give them choices and they will choose. Read a lot, even if there is no attention. Talk to the child about every day things, chores, errands you are running. And DO NOT force them to talk. Just keep repeating. Hardly 3 months later, he is a chatter box, going non stop!!!
Our 2-year-old daughter is behind on her talking milestone of being able to form 2 word sentences. She just talks gibberish or at best repeats some single words we say. What should we do?
Congratulations!Yes. Because my daughter didn't speak even a two word sentence when she was two years old.If she is talking gibberish, it means she is getting there. Talk to her. Ask her questions that need more sentences. Help her. Prompt her. She will catch up soon. There are numerous reasons when a child doesn't achieve a milestone.Like in my case, with my husband talking to her in Tamil and I in Hindi, we didn't realise our daughter was confused as hell.She would just nod her head or point to things she wanted. Only when we stuck to one language did she start talking gibberish and slowly formed sentences.When she was 3 she could talk in full sentences which were jumbled or didn't make sense. But as a parent if you say you didn't understand what your child is talking, it's embarrassing. So we would pretend we understood.When we moved cities, she picked up a lot of new words and suddenly we had this non stop talkative kid breaking the silence around us.Now, I get complaints that she is a chatterbox in school.Parents are funny people.We get worried when the child doesn't speak. But when they do, we tell them to shut up.Hang in there.Enjoy this phase. You will remember this time with a smile on your face years from now.
What happens if you stop talking for a year?
When I was a child, I stopped talking for about a year.I didn’t consciously decide to stop talking — it just kind of happened. The crazy thing is that no one noticed, which was probably because I was a quiet child to begin with.I didn’t go completely silent — can you imagine how hard it is to live that way? I answered people with mostly grunts and body language.I think the main reason why I was able to go a year (more or less, I wasn’t actually counting) without actually saying anything is because of the Chinese word “嗯”, pronounced like how you might say “n”. It’s like a Chinese “hmm”, but also means “yes”.Another reason might be because I have a really expressive face. Lol…As for what happened as a result of keeping silent?When I finally did speak, I didn't sound local. I spoke in a weird way. And it wasn’t like I had an accent — I just didn’t know how to speak. And I can’t quite describe it. I was out of practice for too long, I suppose.I’ve had people ask if it resembled the Deaf Accent, but it doesn’t. It’s not as if I couldn’t hear people. C’mon, now.As a side effect, since I had gained most of my vocabulary from reading, I didn’t pronounce certain words right. At 16 I realized that 'guinea pig' was NOT pronounced 'genie pig'. That was a shocker.I probably still mispronounce some words, but there’s no other way to find out other than the hard way of embarrassing myself in front of my friends.So what actually happened to me other than speaking funny and butchering the pronunciation of some words?I have to tell you that I honestly don’t know. There’s probably a psychological aspect to it — even now, for brief periods of time I get too comfortable keeping silent and it’s hard to speak, and when I try to my voice gets caught in my throat.But they last for days tops, so it’s more of an inconvenience than anything, really.
How to tell my boyfriend I have a long labia?
I don't think you have anything to tell him. It's totally normal to have big labia - look at the chart below of typical vulvas. I've slept with about 20 women and lots of them had big labia - some of them had really big ones. Like most men, I really don't care at all. Now, your labia might be hanging past your knees and then I'd agree that they are huge, but many women think theirs are big because that look at porn and thinking that the women in it are normal. They're not! They get operations and they use photoshop software to manipulate the photos, so they don't look real. If your boyf has touched you, then he knows what your labia are like - you know how big his penis from touching it, don't you? He hasn't run out of the room screaming so far, so I doubt he's going to suddenly become squeamish because it's his tongue against them rather than his fingers or cock. No real man would turn up his nose at sex because he didn't like your lips - it would be like a hungry person refusing a meal because they thought the plate was too big! During sex the focus is on your pleasure and his pleasure, not on one tiny bit of your body.
