Have you ever been ghosted?


I now leave out the question "why" - because that is the special thing with ghosting that you are NEVER told the reason for it!

I was seeing a women for close to 6 months and "things were going great" Then towards the end went quiet. Then she messaged me saying that she dated another guy and that it never worked out with them.
I wasn't happy with that and we agreed to talk things over. In the end she never text me again even though she had arrange a meet up.
From there I moved on, gave her a couple of months then removed her from social media and never contacted her again. And yes it is the cowards way, she has to try her best now to avoid me and I love that, I mean do I still mean that much to her lol.
If she called me tomorrow she'll be told to Fuck Off.
Ghosting is a form of mental abuse.

I haven't been ghosted by anyone I've been in a relationship with or ghosted them.

I've ghosted people and been ghosted by people I've been dating or talking to and been about to go on a date with.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

I have been ghosted once in real life.
From one day to the next. Abruptly.
With no explanation given. It was just terrible.

Half a year later I got some kind of explanation.
But I still think that it was quite an absurd explanation.

A couple of people have tried.

I "ghosted" them first.

I'm not familiar with the term. Is being ghosted the same thing as being stalked by someone?  Huh

Here is a short explanation:

It's sort of the opposite of stalking.

I have written about my own experience:

I have been ghosted once in real life.
From one day to the next. Abruptly.
With no explanation given. It was just terrible.

Half a year later I got some kind of explanation.
But I still think that it was quite an absurd explanation.

Did that sound like   being stalked? Huh Angel Doh
