Why do we keep dodging certain people’s calls — not once or twice, but over and over again? Their name pops up on the screen, and we reach for the silence button without hesitation. We tell ourselves we’ll call back. We don’t. Messages go unread. Invitations are met with vague replies. And yet, they keep reaching out — either genuinely oblivious or determined to pretend nothing has changed. Often, it takes someone else to say, “Just talk to them once, yaar. They’ve been trying.”But here’s the first uncomfortable question — why are we avoiding them in the first place? Not because they hurt us. Not because of a confrontation. Nothing dramatic. Just… a quiet inner switch.
