Giving The Cold Shoulder...
To Ignore someone. To intentionally appear disinterested toward one; to snub. If someone gives you the cold shoulder, they deliberately stop being friendly to you and ignore you.
Sidebar: This phrase usually refers to the act of ignoring someone. It originated with the 19th-century practice of serving of a cold shoulder of meat to tiresome guests.
