"Ghosting" A Cheap Break-up Method..why Do We Do It ? by 0ubenji(m): 11:37am On Jul 09, 2016
Ghosting is the word used to describe a break-up that never actually happens. . It’s when two people are in a relationship and then one person just vanishes without a trace –no call, no text, no explanation. It’s being dumped without actually being told you’re being dumped, leaving you to get the hint (and hope that you’re actually being dumped and something horrible didn’t just happen to the person). It’s not necessarily a new phenomenon, though the term is quickly catching on and becoming part of our lexicon. Generally, I think we can agree ghosting is a crappy thing to do to someone. If a person has dedicated any amount of their time to being in a relationship with you, the respectful thing to do is to let them know you’re not interested. When I was ghosted, it was confusing, humiliating and enraging. If you’re mature enough to enter into a relationship with someone, you should be mature enough to end that relationship when you no longer want to be in it. It’s cowardly. No one likes having hard conversations or hurting anyone’s feelings. Breaking up with someone sucks, regardless of the circumstances. But being an adult means doing the right thing, even if that thing is hard. For instance, when someone experiences radio silence from a person they had been dating, they might be worried that something bad might have happened to them. It’s an unfair burden to put on someone, especially since it can be easily rectified with a simple text message saying, “Hey, I don’t think we should see each other any more”. Relationships are never simple and break-ups suck, no matter how you slice it. But in this digital age, where connecting with someone is as easy as pushing a button, there’s rarely a good excuse to just disappear on them.
