Some people are just rude or it could the fact they do not know you
In my opinion when you speak to person that only speaks when you speak to them is because they are not interested in you, i have learn that some people have a life of their of own, they have more obligations than be thinking about you.
It does hurt somewhat when people ignore you, you have to realize those people are not doing anything for you, those same people that ignore you can turn out to be the phoniest people as soon as you get something nice or have great career those people all of a sudden what to speak to you, my advice is speak to people that speak to you, as you get to know them you do the same.
This is my opinion do not take it to heart.

"Well it was like I was saying....................."
I don't know hun - Sometimes people are lost in thought about their own lives and pass people up without speaking - not intentionally, but because they are preoccupied. I did that once to someone I know. I guess it bothered this person so much that he finally came up to me and asked me about it. I said that I would never intentionally ignore him, but that I must have been busy thinking about something. I was going through a very difficult period in life at that time and was preoccupied. SO - give people the benefit of the doubt, and be brave like that person was with me. #1 it made that person feel better to know that I wasn't ignoring him, #2 it made me realize that sometimes I was ignoring people, even when I wasn't meaning too.

When most people don't speak it could be that they are scared, rude, or a social status. some people only speak to you speak when you speak them because they got problems of their own trust me it is not you, my opinion why focus on people that are not giving you one cent, people are going to themselves.
My advice is speak only when spoken to.

Part of it is poor manners, owing to poor upbringing. Part of it is simply not paying attention. Some people have a lot on their minds. Some people are simply rude. Sometimes you have to stand directly in front of them and speak loudly. That usually gets a response.

Maybe they don't like what you are saying and tune you out. You know what they say " Ignore something and it will go away" lol

Lack of etiquette in their upbringing.
Very rude.

Either something made them not like you or they are not as good as acquaintances as you thought they were. *But people do grow apart, for whatever reason-it's natural.
