Ghosted someone I don't think so, being ghosted several times, as bad as it feels there's always some more important reason than talking to me for them, and I get it, but still feels bad if I cared about them. And then there were others that simply were users so about them good riddance.

@Lovebird both. On my end, I have trouble dealing with rejection... like if I'm into you but you're not in to me.... then it seems to me the best way to cope is "letting go" even if I don't want to... but also that is now called ghosting.... I think it's called coping with rejection or hurt feelings. It may or may not apply here, on this site. And why others may "ghost" others on this site ... can't answer for. ..I can guess that the person really isn't who they pretend to be or something else I don't know. Ultimately it means they're not interested in the "arrangement " or direction of the online "relationship" and if they can't tell you are too hurt or embarrassed or unaware:overwhelmed of /by their own reasoning

This is a sad topic. A few years ago I reconnected with a female friend I had been out of touch with -- someone I was friends with from our high school days and connected with off and on over the years, but had lost touch with for a while. We began corresponding again by email, irregularly but often enough to make me happy about this renewed friendship. Then she stopped responding and it has now been a couple of years without a word from her.
Given our history, of course it is possible that she will turn up in my life again. I hope so. But for now I do feel ghosted. 🥺

i’ve ghosted an ex before. we had gone a few hours without speaking, i couldn’t stop thinking about how us speaking again was going to ruin me. before he woke up i had blocked him everywhere, i felt immediate relief. im not great with goodbyes

@poisonouscupcake at least you got that out of the way and off your chest and now you can somehow move on. He'll survive after the initial shock or disappointment

I was ghosted once after 2 years of an emotionally intimate relationship. It broke my heart in a way I never thought possible.
robbie2499 · 61-69, F
@FoxyQueen I'm so sorry!
@FoxyQueen That's difficult, I have been the one to break up with both relationships I was in, but I knew in my heart to talk with them even if my heart knew the ending. I knew I had to face their emotions, along with mine, and a part of me wanted to stay open if their words or how they respond change my heart I would listen, but I also knew I'm probably in for a world of hurt and I still came to them with how I felt.

@robbie2499 Thanks. It was really hard. He was the closest thing I had ever met to my soulmate, so when he disappeared, it was devastating. I was in a 5 year deep depression. I'm glad I was able to move on, but it was extremely difficult.

I've had a few people on here engaging in some nice conversations with me even asked me some questions about my life and family and then all the sudden just stop talking to me for no known reason oh well
robbie2499 · 61-69, F
@Cigarguy That's one of the drawbacks of sites like these. You have to everything with a grain of salt.
Cigarguy · M
@robbie2499 oh I do it used to kind of bother me especially because they really acted like they were concerned about me and my kiddos but then nothing so whatever

Someone whom I thought was a friend began making explicit comments and wouldn’t stop. I had made it pretty clear that I wasn’t seeking anything romantic, so I ended up blocking him.

@Vin53 Basically.
Yeah I was busy and enjoying time for myself when a friend texted me telling me he finally paid his tickets off.
I looked at it and mentally thought “that’s cool but nothing worth texting me about”
And then 5 minutes later he texted “I just got to wait a few days for it to be put into the system”
I got extremely annoyed and blocked his number and blocked him on all social media lol.

@SomeMichGuy he only talks to me because I’m the only one that humors him, he’s overbearing.
I should’ve never been so nice to someone who isn’t used to it. Just know that it’s a build up of things and this was the last straw 😂

@SomeMichGuy also he repeats himself.

@SomeMichGuy My landlord is female & cool af & I honestly don't see her doing that. If it were them, I'd definitely know because I never told them I got a cat!
