Gonna cry hard
We hear the deep hurt and loneliness in your heart in this moment, and we join with you in bringing it before the Lord. Feeling ignored by someone you love is painful, and the desire to cry, to be heard, to argue rather than be met with silence is very real. We want to pray with you and gently share what the Word of God says about love, communication, and where our ultimate hope rests.
We notice your request does not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to lovingly remind you that it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and peace for our hearts. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6 and There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12. If you have not yet put your trust in Him, we encourage you to believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead and confess Him as Lord, for if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9. He is the One who never ignores us, who hears every cry.
God's Word shows us that true love is not demanding or manipulative, but patient and kind. Love is patient and is kind. Love does not envy. Love does not brag, is not proud, does not behave itself inappropriately, does not seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil. 1 Corinthians 13:4-5. When we say gonna cry hard or call me back, arguing is okay, we understand the desperation to feel connected, but we want to encourage you that using tears or conflict to compel someone to respond is not the pattern of godly love, and arguing for its own sake does not build up a relationship. Instead, A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1 and Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. Ephesians 4:31-32. Healthy communication speaks the truth in love. Ephesians 4:15 and seeks peace.
We also want to speak biblically about this relationship. If this is a romantic relationship, we view being a boyfriend or girlfriend as courtship with the goal of marriage to another Christian believer, because we believe marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman that honors God. We encourage you to seek a godly spouse rather than simply a partner, and to pursue that relationship in purity, for God calls us to honor Him with our bodies and to flee from fornication, which is sex before or outside of marriage. We encourage you to ask whether this relationship is leading you both closer to Christ and toward marriage, or whether it is marked by a cycle of ignoring, arguing, and emotional hurt. Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. 2 Corinthians 6:14. And we are called to bear with one another with all lowliness and humility, with patience, bearing with one another in love, being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. Ephesians 4:2-3.
We know you feel ignored right now, but we want to remind you that the Lord never ignores you. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Psalm 34:18 and He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3. We can bring our anxiety to Him, for In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7.
We pray together for you now.
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we lift up this dear one whose heart is hurting and who feels unloved and unheard. We ask You to wrap them in Your perfect love which casts out fear, for Perfect love casts out fear. 1 John 4:18. Heal the pain of feeling ignored, dry every tear, and give peace that surpasses understanding. Teach them to find their worth and security first in You, knowing You will never leave nor forsake them. Hebrews 13:5. We pray for the other person in this relationship as well, that You would soften any hardness of heart, give wisdom and kindness in communication, and help both to speak with grace and truth. If this is a courtship, we pray You would make clear whether it is Your will for marriage, and help them both to honor You in purity, patience, and self-control, which is fruit of Your Spirit. Galatians 5:22-23. If arguing and ignoring have become a pattern, we pray You would bring godly counsel, boundaries, and healing, and if needed, the courage to step back and seek Your will above all. Lead them both to a deeper relationship with Jesus, for it is only in Him that we have true love and hope. We ask all this in the precious name of Jesus, Amen.
We encourage you to take this hurt to the Lord first before demanding a call back, to pray and wait on Him, and to seek wise, godly counsel from a pastor or mature believer. Trust that God hears you even when a person does not, and He will guide your steps as you seek His will.

We heard the hurt in what you wrote, that sense of waiting and wondering why silence has taken the place of even an argument. When you love someone and feel ignored, it can leave you feeling lonely and unseen, and it makes sense you would want to cry.
We want you to know you are not forgotten. God sees you in this waiting, and we are praying for you.
When the ache is this strong, it helps not to carry it alone. If you have a trusted friend, family member or pastor, consider reaching out to them today just to talk and be with someone who can listen calmly. It can also help to pause before you reach out again to the person you miss, and jot down in simple words what is most on your heart and what you hope to hear, so if you do talk you can share clearly and give them space to respond.
You deserve to be treated with care and respect, even in disagreement.
Father, in Jesus name we lift them to You. Comfort their heart tonight, quiet the ache of loneliness and give wisdom for next steps. Surround them with supportive people and help them know they are loved and seen by You. Bring peace as they wait and guide any conversation toward honesty and kindness. Amen.

Beloved of All
I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.
Spurgeon
Beloved of All
Your words carry a very tender and heavy sorrow, and the ache of feeling unheard and left alone is one that pierces deeply. To love and to feel ignored, to long for a voice to answer and to fear that tears are near, is a loneliness that many of God's people have known in deep soul conflict.
Know this, that our Lord Jesus Christ Himself entered into that loneliness. He was left alone just when most, as Man, He needed human sympathy, and none of us can fully fathom the sorrow of His lonely heart. Yet His loneliness did not destroy Him. It pained Him but it did not dismay Him, and He stood constant, courageous and forgiving. He knows what it is to be forsaken by those He loves, and He is able to sympathize and to sustain you now. As it is written, you now therefore have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man takes from you.
There has been a long standing quarrel between God and man, and the first reconciliation we must seek is with God Himself. God is the God of Peace and He has on His part prepared everything that is necessary for a perfect reconciliation through Jesus Christ. God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins. When faith accepts that Substitution as a glorious gift of grace and rests in Christ who was smitten in our place, we are at peace with God. That peace is both a fact and a feeling, and from it flows the power to love others rightly. Healing for both body and soul must be sought from God, and we may tell Jesus about our aches and pains, our swollen sorrows and our sleepless nights, for He made us, He redeemed us, and He understands.
Your longing to be heard and loved is real, and it is right to desire love that is faithful and present. The Word of God teaches that true love is patient and kind, and that it is given its full and holy expression within the lifelong covenant of marriage between one man and one woman, where living together and the gift of love belong. Whether this is a marriage that is strained or a love that hopes toward marriage, bring that desire under the searching light of God's commandments. The psalmist said, I opened my mouth and panted, for I longed for Your commandments. Let your first longing be after holiness, that your own heart may be conformed to God's judgments which are laid down in Scripture. Ask the Lord to expose and to heal any sin in you, to make you gentle and tender through this trial, and to teach you to love not with demanding or with contention, but with grace and truth.
Arguing may seem better than silence, but the Lord calls us to a more excellent way. The ministry of reconciliation which He has given to us speaks of forgiveness, of bearing with one another, of speaking the truth in love. Instead of resting your whole hope upon whether another voice answers at once, seek first to find God. Your whole soul is possessed by this longing, and that desire is intensely personal. Think and pray, and then think and pray again. The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and God came among men in the person of Christ. If you can but find where God is, you will find Him in Christ, and in Him you will find comfort that no human love can fully give.
I will pray for you, that the Lord who healeth all our diseases would comfort your weeping heart, that He would grant you peace with Himself through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone, that He would give you wisdom to communicate with meekness and to forgive as you have been forgiven, and that He would lead both you and the one you love into that which is holy and pleasing in His sight. If it be a covenant of marriage, may He restore tenderness and faithful communion. If it be a hope not yet formed into covenant, may He keep you both pure and guide your steps according to His Word. May He turn your sorrow into a longing after Himself, until you can say, I have found Him whom my soul loves, and may your joy be found first in Him.
