I have been ghosted by someone I thought was important, after three years of friendship it's like he fell off the edge of the world. Now I see him as a coward and of no consequence to me.

I know why. I couldn't play the role in his life that he wanted so he disappeared. Never would respond to so much as an email. I once had a poem I'd written & pinned when my profile was open to the public. It still hurts my heart to think about it. 😔

I got ghosted 👻 it was hurtful at the time but they came back on the scene, it was so weird, started liking my pics on Facebook and probably expected me to message them. I didn’t and they removed the likes and them came back again added me, I still didn’t respond.
I ended up blocking them eventually.

Some people just play mind games.

Yes and yes.
Self preservation apparently. Seems more like selfish to me.

Yes, and I know why, but not from the friend I was ghosted by. I was going through my own issues, my friend offered to help, be a support, I accepted his help, but then never ever heard from him again. Year's long friendship gone in the worst kind of way to me, you open yourself to his help in friendship, and then what he offered it's not even he doesn't acknowledge he did, he's just gone. 20 years of friendship, gone.

a few times. never found out why. oh well, people come and people go.

I sure did then regretted it and wished I never contacted them ...it's good to just let things be at times ...lesson learned

Been ghosted many times. I don't remember ever finding out why, no. But I don't care anymore, to be honest. It's an expectation now. When it inevitably happens, it's no skin off my back. At least I know not to reply if they try reaching out to me again.

Sorry if you cared for the person.
I don't make close personal friends on internet, did so once, turned out to be a waste of my time.
Glad if works for others. ☮️

Still have no clue. I assume they just found someone more interesting to pay attention to 🤷‍♀️

what site/app were you using if it's cool to ask?

Most simply lost interest. Others were liars.
There's one I don't know cause just vanished from everywhere.

Tbh it's a fools errand to try to find. The ghosting person may not even know why themselves. I think the only viable fix is to just remember as fondly as you can and move forward.

If I don't answer your PM it's because of 3 things
I'm not a chat person
I'm lazy
I dislike you .

Take your pick

hm. typically i ghost people, or if they stop speaking to me i know the reason (that i was an A hole)

Yea its their reality

I knew too much and I knew what he was and called him on it. Also he was just a sadistic lying sack of shit.
