cold treatment
Icy interpersonal reception
Cold treatment is deliberately ignoring or being unfriendly toward someone as a form of punishment or displeasure: After their argument, she gave him the cold treatment for a week.
The phrase is interchangeable with "cold shoulder" and "silent treatment," all describing social rejection through emotional distance rather than confrontation.
