The context of the following conversation is Alex was ignoring Jordan yesterday, but Jordan demanded Alex's attention.:
Alex says Ugh, Jordan won't leave me alone!.
The friend responds Why not? What happened?.
Alex responds We got in a fight a couple of days ago, and I ignored him all day yesterday..
The friend responds That was mean of you! You should try and communicate better..
Alex responds I know. But I was so mad that I was afraid I'd say something really mean, so I just tried to ignore him..
The friend responds I guess that makes sense. Maybe you should tell him that..
