So a few years back I was dating this girl that hit a lot of the wants and needs in a partner. But we didn't really have as much sex as I wanted. Then one day I found her actively on some back web kink hook up site. And I didn’t even bother asking her about it. I just decided if our communication was that shitty then it wasn’t as good of a relationship as I thought and just bounced. Lately I have really been wishing I would have talked to her about it instead. Is what it is. Probably for the best anyways.

I used to ghost guys who asked for my number (but I didn't personally know them but they were texting me back and forth) when I was young and immature. So yeah, I regret that. That was disrespectful and I make an effort not to do that nowadays. However, I've only ever ghosted one person I had a real relationship with. It was a friendship, and she was basically a manipulative narcissist. She was genuinely the worst person I've ever met. So no, I don't feel bad because I was trying to avoid being manipulated and smeared by her at the end. I thought long and hard about it too.

For me to ghost you nowadays, you have to be extremely toxic/potentially dangerous to me. And it would have been obvious what you did to warrant the ghosting, so no need to explain.

I never ghosted anyone, if I wanted out of the relationship then I broke it off face to face or through phone. Ghosting is a very cruel, cowardly thing to do to someone. I got ghosted once and it really brought the abandonment/rejection issues to the front really bad. I eventually got over it but because of that it makes me super careful who I trust and allow into my heart again.

[Guy13]

Ghosting 👻 is unnecessary with use of today’s technologies. Nope because for some strange reason my conscience won’t let me do that. Skype, FaceTime, and now Zoom allows for face-face interactions and straight forward, “ I’m done.”

[Summeroflove]

No because I don’t just do that and if I cut contact with someone irs for good reason

[D_Bone_Steak]

No... ghosted people were very calculated and I put thought into it. It's like when you have someone that isn't taking no for an answer... you run out of options. Your best bet is to just stop talking.

Some people will feed off of getting any response at all and they just keep going.

I actually ghosted my Grandfather when he passed away. It was important for him to know we would visit him at the cemetery when he passed like he did for his parents and grandparents. I said I would but I am not a cemetery person. I feel bad and every Christmas and on his birthday I say I'm going to go and never do. I have literally ghosted a ghost. I don't know what I believe in after we take our last breath but I feel him around me all the time.

[cryscrys1]

I never ghost
I have been ghosted from friends but I don’t really pay much attention to it because I know people change dreams change minds change I also changed too different university etc so yeah
all is well

[AmeerX]

I only ghosted this one girl. By ghosting I mean I wasn't in a relationship. She was just too clingy and always messaging me as if she owned me.

Rest I got ghosted quite a lot 🙄.

Yeah it is hurtful to think but I suppose it happens. People die as well so it's not that bad. I hope they do find someone better and suitable.

[dowser19]

Nope. Nothing to regret these days. Relationships are history. Now, whenever a female tries to get my attention for any reason, I just beat her to the punch by looking right at her and asking, "Want to buy content?😗" She's definitely going to ask it anyway. All of them are. I just get to it first now, that's all.😊

[AnUglyBarnacle]

No. I've only ghosted 3 people in my life. You gotta be a special kind of awful for me to do that.

[NathanDavis]

no, but I've never ghosted anybody... that ain't right, lol

[dustybiker]

Nope. I always end it clearly and with decent reasoning.

[miniskirtcaley81]

Can’t say as though I have. I generally trust my intuition

[Sasha0426]

I guess you can call this ghosting but I did with a couple of my friends because they weren’t who I thought they were. I didn’t tell them my reason why I did it.

[AmeerX]

What does that even mean? Friends who weren't you thought they were?

[Sasha0426]

When I first met them, they seem to be pretty good. We hung out a lot and everything was going well. Then years later they started to insult me by calling me a whore and they tried to make it come off as “jokes.” Which I knew better than that.

[Sasha0426]

It was like anytime I was around them they always had to say something about my single life. One of my friends even said I would come back knocked up when I came back from Cancun for family vacation.

[AmeerX]

Oh those types. Yeah I suppose you did the right thing. My friend passed a comment like that to me in front of my crush and I basically punched him in the face in front of the whole class. He said girls like BJs and hjs and so on and next thing he knew it he was on the ground 😅. Luckily his nose didn't fracture and my teacher who was a female let it all go too. Class sided with me ))

[AmeerX]

He stopped talking like that in front of me afterwards.

And you know you can find someone like yourself if you travel to some Asian or Middle Eastern country and no we don't beat our wives 🤣

[BarryLiverstone]

Nope. Only ghosted one person and it was the right choice

[BarryLiverstone]

Did you get ghosted?

[Asker]

Yes by the same person for the second time. 1st time I kind of chased him and he gave me a reason saying it was my fault. This time everything was fine. A week later and he ghosted again. Before that he disappeared a few times and came back. I don't know. I don’t get it. I think it’s immature. If you want something over then say it or if something else is going on. Say it. I don’t get ghosting.

[BarryLiverstone]

For him ghosting is the easy button. In a way when he does it he’s running away from himself and not dealing with his own issues. Sadly you are a byproduct. But yes obv it’s more mature if he acted like you were important to communicate if he wants to say goodbye.

Did you block him and do you miss him?

[Asker]

I really liked him. It was really hard how it happened. I sent several messages. He finally spoke to me the first time he ghosted. I apologized for what I did wrong and tried to do everything right. He’s going through a lot with his depression and everything. This time. He stopped responding after a week of talking again. After sending several messages. I told him I wasn’t going to try to chase after him to get him to talk to me. I told him. I didn’t want to go. I really liked him. I didn’t want him to go. But I told him I couldn’t deal with the ghosting and him disappearing so if he did it this time. I was done. He would be ending it. I gave him till last night to say something. He didn’t. So I guess that’s it. If he doesn’t care enough not to do something like that. Or he doesn’t fight to keep me around like I gave him. Then what’s left to say. He’s 35. I want someone who can complicate. Communicate if the don’t want to see me anymore. Communicate if something is wrong. Ghosting is not communicating.

[BarryLiverstone]

You are right. He’s 35. If he can’t communicate and fight for you in a few weeks how could you expect him to do it for years? Sorry it’s painful. You are doing the right thing to try and move on tho

[Ms_Facesitter]

Something I have never regretted. I have my reasons and ghosting means there was no other way.

[tonamimargaux]

I ghost and don’t regret ghosting on them coz they fuck boys

[sheikalana]

I've ghosted some people in the past but never regretted.

[OddBeMe]

No my ghosting abilities are pretty legendary. I sniff out an asshole like my mother, it’s best we don’t talk so much.

[dustybiker]

She survived your childhood. Strong woman.

[OddBeMe]

How dare you take her side.

[dustybiker]

She’s earned my respect.

[OddBeMe]

@dustybiker I knew there was a conspiracy. Just didn’t know how close…

[dustybiker]

What can I say? It’s the holidays.

[Alex8736]

i don't believe in ghosting and I am very clear if someone even assumes i am especially during a long hectic workweek and away from my phone

[aaron210419]

Never ghosted anyone ever, and I have no respect for those that do

[es20490446e]

I never ghost. In the worst case I give short replies.

[Anonymous]

yes when we meet her was fat and ugly. so when he ask me for my numner I gave it to himnto be nice but whenever he wanyed to hang i had an excuse.
now his slim and hot and friend said hung lol

[SlavicThor]

Ghosted many times - most i do regret because i was younger and it was rude

[Anonymous]

No, the women I ghosted were bitches. I realized why they were single. Other then that, I've met many Kind and Lovable Single Women.

[Anonymous]

I only regretted it because she was an easy lay and it was a while before I got some again

[DeeDeeDeVour]

No regrets.

It's for the best.

[Darine123]

I did, he was nice and gentleman

[Alaskan_123]

No. Because I found out he was a stalkery, creep.

[LiamJHayden]

[BeMuse]

Nope.
