What does it mean if someone I know didn’t greet me back in the street yesterday ? We normally are used greeting each other each time. Is he mad at me ?

  1. This is a perfect example of the A B C method. A – something that happened, B – what you think of it and C – how you feel. It means that how we feel has everything to do with how we think, not the action itself perse. Now you most likely think that he didn’t greet you on purpose, and therefore he must be mad, and therefore you feel bad at the moment which is why you’re posting here.

    Instead, take a step back. A- the situation happened. B- think instead of, he didn’t look at me he must be angry or mad, think of this: he probably didn’t see you or didn’t recognise you. He might’ve just heard some news or was thinking about something he read on the news. Hence C- you don’t feel any bad emotion. Think of this next time and don’t automatically assume the worst.
