'Ghosting/ghosted' in real life?

Do we all have that person/people that you didn't ever fall out with, but just... stopped making plans with? How do you feel about it?

I saw someone in the street yesterday I was friends at school with and we were even friends after for a while, we would meet up, go out etc. Then one day, the last time we said 'goodbye, see you later, see you soon' etc, we just never saw each other again.

I saw her coming first and looked down at my phone, concentrated on looking like I was crossing the road (and probably drew more attention than if I carried straight on!) To be honest there's a chance she wouldn't have recognised/registered that it was me.

I doubt there's any hard feelings on either side and if we did notice each other, would just have ignored it but it did make me feel awkward and anxious for a moment.

Have you had it done to you/been the person doing it? Do we all just appreciate that 'it just happens' sometimes? 🤔

Actually is for the better imo. Don't have to put effort in trying to figure out who is the snake and who is putting on an act. The real ones keep in touch and make the time to at least give a message or share something interesting like a meme at least. Ppl who ghost that's like a favor to me.
