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
