Search Results: chatting online

So I've been ghosted by an online friend a few months ago. The ghoster left me on read 3 times and finally replied 3 weeks after the initial message. Ghoster said I had done nothing wrong, and that they went through some "dramatic" events. I replied the next day, and they left me on read again for 2 days. Once they replied, they kinda explained "what happened to them", and they asked how I was doing. I said I was fine, that I hoped they are too, and that I was there for them if they needed someone to talk to. So they left me on read again, but this time for 10 days. When they finally replied, they thanked me and said that they missed chatting and doing a specific activity with me. I left them on delivered for 5 days. On the 4th, they double texted me and said that they hoped I was doing okay. So I replied on the 5th day and they unexpectedly replied 4 hours later. So I thought that maybe they actually wanted to put more efforts into being in communication with me again. So after that, I stopped texting them (to see if they would reach out to me).

Around 2 weeks later, I reached out and invited them to do an activity with me. It took them like 10 mins to read the message and yes, they left me on read again. I didn't double text, and it took them almost 3 weeks to reply. When they did, they said that they "didn't know that I had written to them" and then, they invited me to that activity with me in the evening. I left them on delivered. Haven't opened it yet, and it's been 2 days. I don't know if they'll double text me like they did last time I left them on delivered.

Is this a good idea? Is it ok to ghost the ghoster? I mean, I don't think they're truly honest... What if I had replied? Would they have left me on read again, or would they have actually went through with their plan to do something with me on that day?
