What are your opinions on ghosting?

I am fascinated with the concept of ghosting. I don't like being ghosted. I feel it's deeply disrespectful to ghost anybody. Once, somebody was quite rude to me. I was supposed to go to their birthday party, I told them that my car needed to be fixed which they knew to be true. I just didn't want to fix my car for that day because I didn't want to be their friend anymore since they disrespected me. Anyways, I didn't show up so they accused me of ghosting them. When I refer to ghosting, I am specifically referring to the term used when somebody will all of a sudden avoid another person without any warning even if a specific schedule was supposed to be arranged. Anyways, what are your opinions on ghosting?????
