you just have to talk to them one day and sit them down and say you have something serious to talk to them about. if possible, have an actual serious topic.. like you have issues with bullys, or you need advice on something serious like relationships or friendships.
if you do have a topic in mind to talk about, you have to be completely serious about it. no joking around. after you're discussion on that topic, let them know how good it feels that you can talk to them about anything. say something like- "thanks for being here for me. i love that i can talk to you about anything. thanks for listening to me"
if you compliment them on those kinds of things, they will realize how important it is to you.
however, if you dont have a topic in mind, then talk to them seriously and let them know it bothers you that they dont listen. just talk to them from your heart. tell them whats bothering you and that you wish they could listen to what you have to say.
DONT FORGET- celebrate success. if they finally listen to you, you have to celebrate. in other words, tell them how much it means to you that they listen to you and smile and hug them and tell them you love them :) [ lovealways1221's advice column | Ask lovealways1221 A Question ]
