How do you personally respond to being ignored?

When I'm either upset, angry or disappointed in someone, rather than stir the pot and create full on conflict, I ignore the person and basically give the cold shoulder without saying that's what I am doing. It seems that silence speaks as well. How do you respond if someone goes silent on you and ignores you?

Depends on the situation. I PREFER to be ignored by those I don't know, but generally get upset when ignored by those I love or care about.

I am the same. Being quiet sometimes sends a message and causes others to think about their actions though.

@OWise1: True d'at! I've discovered that the less I say, the more people listen to me. I guess it goes back to that old saw about value in rarity. :-)
