Ghosting is a cowardly way out of a relationship.
Ghosting is possible something we all have in common, not necessarily that we have ghosted someone, but just about every one of us has been ghosted at least once.
Ghosting is when you disappear from a person’s life without so much as a warning. It often happens with online relationships, and I think it became worse now with the pandemic. You start to realize how many narcissistic people are out in the world.
They spend days, weeks, and even months getting to know someone. Planning their futures together, proclaiming their love for each other, and of course, exchanging raunchy pictures and videos. Then one day, you just don’t hear from them, they don’t answer your messages or calls, in some cases, they block you across all their social media accounts. Taking this relationship, you created with them and just deleting it. It’s like they never existed; you are heartbroken and in disbelief that it is all just gone.
I see these heartbreaking stories daily on subreddits and forums, people wanting to know how to deal with the loss and get closure from someone who just disappeared when nothing was wrong in their “relationship.”
I find ghosting to be cowardly and weak, and these people obviously have the social skills of a plate. If you are so weak that you can not break up with a person in person, send them a text or an email.
At least give them a reason and an opportunity to get some kind of closure. After you have emailed or texted them, you can block them but at least let them know. It is the once decent thing you can do after wasting their time and energy. It is the right thing to do so that they don’t overanalyze everything, blaming themselves for months while slowly breaking down their own self-esteem.
If you have been ghosted, I am sorry that you have to go through this; I am sorry that you are experiencing loss and heartbreak. You never did anything wrong, and you don’t deserve to be treated like that. You are beautiful, you are loved, and you will find your forever partner. Don’t let this experience affect your life or confidence; it is a stepping stone and a lesson learned.
If you have ghosted someone, you need to look within yourself and determine what has gone so terribly wrong in your life that you have no emotions towards others or their feelings. Stop being an asshole and grow a spine. Life has a way of returning favors and biting you in the arse.
The world is changing and becoming a very lonely place thanks to technology, and the pandemic has not helped people looking for love online. Love is all some people need to get over the difficulties we are all now experiencing.
Ghosting is cowardly, be a better person.
