dodge calls

[ostap77]

If someone's been dodging my calls, does it mean that the person has not been answering ?

More specifically, that they know it is you who is calling and they are not answering.

. . .or they have told the person answering to say that you're not there.

How should I interpret dodging in this context?

Someone calls me on my cell phone and I let my phone ring since I won't take that call.
Or,
Someone calls me on my cell phone and I push the no button because I don't want to talk to that person.

Which one?

Thanks for your replies in advance.

Either one. If you know that person is calling and you choose not to talk to him/her, you are dodging the call.
