How long until it's considered ghosting?

[Anonymous]

How many days have to pass for it to be considered ghosting/you've been ghosted? It's about 7 days since I last heard from him and I'm afraid he's ghosted me, even though he's watched my IG stories and liked the one pic I posted this week 😔

I guess 7 days is enough is he is still seeing the IG and everything what exactly happened do you have any idea?

We have mutural friends and I found out through others they were all planning on seeing a movie I wanted to see. One that tickets were sold out to and one he had told me 2 months ago that I "should come too". I was disappointed he never even mentioned anything to me & I guess it's not really his job to, even if he had said I "should come" too. I texted him 7 days ago that I wished he and the others told me about the group hangout for the movies. I felt his excuse didn't make sense and I wrote back it was fine. That was it, I haven't heard from him since. I feel dumb to text him now at this point and I was hoping he would have. The longest I hadn't heard from him was 3 days, so this week is so different and I feel really dumb about what I had texted 😔

I guess what you did was completely right and thats how any normal person would react i am confuse as why did not he messaged because I think he is acting rude sorry no offence. I know you feel sad why dont you talk to any of your friend about this and ask their opinion? But make sure that friend doesn't leak your convo to him as this may further tamper the situation. Do you have any such friend?

I have spoken to a friend about it who I know hasn't said anything to him. She does believe he should have told me about the actual plans, since he had mentioned before that I should go. I still can't help but feel I messed up and I did something wrong by texting him what I did.

I dont think you did any wrong and I guess he should have contacted you but I think you should not message him now instead he should initiate it because if you keep on messaging even though you did nothing wrong will make things clingy for you and it might not have a positive effect

Did you try to contact him?

[Asker]

I was the one to last text him. I feel nervous/shy/dumb to do so at this point. The longest I hadn't heard from him was 3 days, so this 7 days has been different.

If he was online after that then it seems he is ignoring you. And this is not a good sign. I think you should find someone who care about you better than him.
