blew off

Ignored an obligation

Blew off is the past tense of blow off, which means to skip or ignore something you were expected to do: I blew off the meeting, She blew off her homework.

It can also mean to dismiss someone curtly: He tried to talk to her but she blew him off.

The phrase suggests casual disregard rather than hostile refusal.
