Being boycotted...
I'm generally used to communicate and debate peacefully and never let contrasting opinions affect the human, personal relationship between me and another person.
Whenever an issue should arise between me and someone else, I openly march to the battlefield with a white flag and try to listen and solve the problem.
I'm slightly puzzled, however, when the other person - especially when it's a good friend - casually decides to sever all relevant communication with me without even exposing the problem, but implicitly hinting at a possible problem I might have created and should feel guilty about.
Typical behaviour: saying "hi" with an forced smile, and immediately speaking with other friends before even giving me the time to ask "how are you?" (and maintaining an avoidant attitude).
How do you suggest I could understand the issue or at least make the friend quit the acting and speak openly of any doubts or problems he has convinced himself of?

That really sucks that does it happened to me before without reason. Maybe write a letter asking why this has happened let plead your friend to give you an explanation.
Unfortunatly people are like that.

without meaning to be harsh, but it is probably something you've done. ive cut ties with someone who used to be a friend before because of something they kept doing and they just wouldn't admit they had a problem even though everyone else said he did. as tacky as it sounds, you could write an email and just ask for an explanation because all you want to know is what you've done wrong. dont do it face to face as it could look like your trying to start a fight or looking for a confrontation
