Selective Hearing 

The act of listening to only the things a person wants to hear. This can lead to a complete topic change.

Matt: Yo are you watching this Rockies game? It's nuts!

Ben: uhh. I don't think this long distance relationship is going to work out.

Matt: (thinking to himself) Damn. That's some crazy selective hearing if I ever saw it.

Selective hearing 

This can be defined as when a person only responds to specific instructions, words or sentences.

This mostly applies to toddlers and young children. Some children would ignore a call from an adult but would immediately respond when the adult offered them a treat

E.g selective hearing :
The boy only responds to"come and eat".

Selective hearing 

Selective hearing refers to the way people only hear a part of what someone is saying — often, it's what they want or expect to hear — and miss out on the rest.

This tends to cause conflict, riffs and miscommunication in relationships.

It is also very annoying and RUDE.
