When you’re talking to a friend online and they ghost you….

Do you contact them and ask if you had maybe said something to offend them, or do you just leave them alone and wonder what you said wrong?
I used to worry that I offended people because I tend to speak my mind and say exactly what I am thinking and then worry when I don’t hear back from them. But now I don’t give a merry good rats ass and I give them a certain amount of time to respond back, then I delete and block them. I don’t need toxic halfway friends in my online life- got way too many of them in my real life.

I dont usually place too much on online friendships. They come and go. If someone stops talking it happens. Generally it's not anything that was said, rather the person who falls silent probably has their own whatever going on.
I dont overthink it.

I dont know whats happening in someone's real life, what problems they have or how much they have going on.

Maybe its because i can drop conversations and not reply for ages coz i jist dont have the emotional energy to spare at that time.

Plus, people all have different reasons for being here, different levels of tolerance, energy, focus.
So i try not to read too much into it.🤷‍♀️

If they wanted to contact you they wouldn’t ghost you in the first place

Speaking your mind and saying what you think is a good thing i say.
Just some have been sheltered i suppose

@Virgo79 you’re one of the few. I try hard to be one of those sweet girly girls, but it’s just not me. I talk, I cuss, I speak my mind. When my husband was alive, he used to say “ why can’t you just stand there and look beautiful!?” I started really noticing these classy beautiful women who just don’t speak unless spoken to, who just stand there looking all classy and confident and I try to copy them but it’s just. Not. Me.

I'd ask why. If they still don't communicate I'd leave it alone .

I get too sad. Wished I didn't, though
Mardrae · F
@SW-User so do you contact them or leave them alone?
SW-User
@Mardrae depends how I feel about them. If I see it's lack of interest I let things rest.

SW-User

SW-User

It might be just a case of them falling asleep or a knock at the door. Blocking them is a bit drastic

I block them for ghosting me .. that’ll teach them

I get pretty sad. There’s no point in contacting them. They have ghosted me, they won’t reply.
