It is true that respect is something taught, but the person learning that has to put it into practice as well. Maybe that old saying, "Do onto others" is no longer taught. It's just like businesses posting signs like "NO SMOKING" with a picture of a cigarette with a LINE through it. It doesn't help if people don't COMPLY. (And I've seen people doing that right under the sign....)  
To me, silence can interpreted in many ways, even in the wrong way. But a "go to h**" is very clear. Still, there is a diplomatic way to say it instead of leaving people hanging....
Billi, if people continue to ignore you, ignore them. Add them to your ignore list or don't respond when they send you a message. If, after giving a second chance, they still give you BS, then give it back. Don't waste your time. Gosh, this pisses me off.
I'm sorry this happens to you, but I'm also glad it's not just me.
