I have to say you are taking this verse out of context.
You can certainly say that, but I am afraid you are the one who is wrong (see more Scripture to follow).

1 Pet. 3: 7 refers to a husband or wife interefereing in the prayer-life of the mate. To impede a prayer on this end does not constitute a refusal to answer. . . it constitutes a prayer that is interrupeted, impeded, etc.
1 Peter 3:7 is not referring to a husband or wife interferring in the prayer life of the other. It is a warning specifically to husbands to be the spiritual head of their household, for if they are not... as they spiritually starve their famly, they too will find themselves cut off from God.

When a prayer gets to God, he may choose to answer it as requested, deny it outright, or anywhere in between. Yes, No, or Wait.
To quote Scripture:
"When you spread out your hands, I close my eyes to you; Though you pray the more, I will not listen." - Isaiah 1:15
Hrm, ignored? Sounds like it to me. What about you? Care to revise your answer?
"He hears the prayers of the righteous." - Proverbs 15:29
