And you don’t do it specifically because then the person getting ghosted doesn’t know why and there’s no possibility for growth there.

Thats lame, people change so why burn a bring if you aren't getting along like birds of a feather at the time. UNLESS...You did something crappy and you don't know it/she won't tell you

Based on a project I did last year for school, I was going to suggest that FarmersOnly was probably owned by the same company who owns JDate (who has two or three top-line dating sites — ironically, JDate, ChristianMingle, and LDSSingles — but generally relies on the business model of acquiring and monetizing very…

Ooo I like it! Yeah I think I’ll wait to see if he texts me to hang out next week and then respond with that.

THIS.

Yeah, this right here. I have serious issues after being ghosted on three years ago. I’m convinced that I have some serious flaw that made the first close friend I’d made in a few years despise me so much she couldn’t even be fucked to say, “You know, our friendship really isn’t working out anymore. I’m done talking…

Phew. Then I’m ok. I’ve ghosted, but it was an abusive situation and i feared our next fight.

Agreed. My last two exes would argue I ghosted them but they were both abusive and emotionally manipulative and used the same technique to get rid of me when they “weren’t feeling it” with no warning/explanation and would reappear to draw me back in at their leisure which would emotionally destroy me everytime because…

It takes literally one line - and will save the other party weeks, months of anxiety of WHAT THE FUCK DID I DO??

this. I was ghosted by an emotionally abusive person for years, our romantic relationship ended - only they decided to continue to stay in full contact with my closest friends - but with me, never a word. that isn’t just ghosting it is straight up emotional abuse to do that to someone.

it only really ended when I asked…

I reserve ghosting for the most awkward break-ups of all: family members.

YES to this.

I ghosted someone once because it was a new relationship, and he called me ALL THE TIME. If an hour went by and I hadn’t called him back, he would call again and leave increasingly desperate messages. At first I didn’t call him back because I was busy, then because I didn’t want to reward him for his clingy behavior,…

I like you.

If someone you’re interested in isn’t answering your texts within five minutes, they are either dead, at a movie (and still have manners), or just don’t want to date you.

How about ghosters grow a fucking pair and just relay what the problem is or that you just don’t want to date anymore? After that initial explanation you don’t have to talk any fucking more but have some fucking decency you ass wipes.

I hear Gawker media also takes a pretty hard “yes” line on the existence of the atom.

Reality has a well-known pro-vaccine bias. It’s disgusting; reality should really be willing to hear both sides on this issue.

Biased in favor of... facts?
