I've done it to several men I met online. I don't know them well enough to want to put up with the hassle of an argument. It's easier on both ends when you owe each other nothing. |

I've done it a few times to people who have seriously annoyed me.
My ex has been doing it to me lately and I don't see why. She just decided to fuck off one day and won't tell me why when we do speak which is rarely. Never did a thing to deserve that treatment especially after I had done for her. |

Sometimes it's just the only option when you just need to get away from everything and everyone to get your head together
Although it's not nice to that to someone there's different reasons as to why someone chooses to do it |

Doesn't sound a nice thing to do to someone but then sometimes it maybe the only way, you have to see it from both sides I guess |

I would not rule it out and could see me doing it if someone was abusive. I'd prefer just to clearly inform them of the cut and then do it. It's cleaner and less likely to have potential comeback I'd guess. |

Had it happen once it was a guy id been seeing regularly for three years and although it was nsa we had become friends talked about three times a week. Every thing was normal then he just dissappeared of the face of the earth never to be heard of again well not for about 6 months when he reappeared. He told me why he had done it but i was worried he could of sent me a message saying he didnt want anymore contact and at least i would of known he wasnt dead |

There are times when it may be necessary. I had to with an ex gf of mine. Having discovered she had stolen a sizable amount of money from me over several months, I confronted her about it but she denied it. After that, I had no trust in her, so cut all contact whilst the bank and police investigated. Needless to say, she was prosecuted.  |

If someone wants to cut all contact with you then they have their own reasons to do so.
If they wish to share the reasons why with you or not is their choice.
Just accept that for what ever reason they no longer wish to be in contact with you and move on.

"I find the ghosting starts after I've had Sex with them....(not fab related) but more in the dating world....I'm getting a bit of a complex thinking I'm a shit shag "
It's probably not that your a shit shag? It's more than likely they didn't fancy you enough for repeat performances.
Some men just like to fuck something new and once the deed is done the novelty is lost and they move on to new punani.
If your wanting more from a guy than just sex then go through the whole dating process first before dropping your nix. You may find they tend to stick around a little longer than just one fuck.
Only my opinion of course

a friend of mine ran massage palors and this is very popular, a girl will leave as normal, then phone off, and quite a few resurface months or yrs later as if it was only a few days, and expect to carry on as if they have not been away, but some you never see again |

No! It's when you've smoked a strongly flavored tobacco in your pipe, then everytime you smoke another blend, you can still taste that strong flavour. It "ghosts" the pipe. So best to have different pipes for different blends of tobacco. The last thing you want is for your frogmorton to be ghosted by some black cherry! Lol crazy! |

and if they ghost me, as I say it wouldn't bother me if they had emotion or not..... they have chosen to fuck and I am left completely indifferent to them.

It was a reply to the statement that people who "ghost" are devoid of emotion. Not to the OP. Hence why i quoted it, not the OP. |

It's a cowards way out... I'd prefer they were just honest and said it like it was rather than bury their heads in the sand... Even more annoying when they come back after months like nothing happened... |

I had this happen with a very good friend last year..... We had not had sex by the way...had known each other for over 10 years.. Spoke everyday.. Seen him 4 or 5 times week ..then one day just stopped replying to messages.. No explanation, nothing.. Not spoke for over a year now and I still don't know why.. We have mutual friends so I know he is OK.. But left me thinking I'd done something wrong.. Now I don't give a shit.. Would of been nice to know what was up though at the time. |

The more virtual a relationship the more likely it is to be ghosted one day.
It's easy just to block or put people on ignore online, via phone or text. Face to face you have to see the pain or distress your causing.
Have been gradually ghosted, longer and longer gaps before replying, never making contact first, more and more excuses for no real world contact. Eventually they just fade away to become digital memories.
They never explain, never take responsibility for it ending and if you remark on it then it is you that is dissatisfied with the relationship and have cause it to end.
It is just as others have said a cowardly way to leave a relationship without being blamed. |

Clem your words "People who expect more shouldn't be swinging."...that was what I was referring to...my words "one man's rules are not anothers".
Yes you're right that a person has a right to ghost or do whatever.... it still remains a cruel act. |

Despite the comments, I'm neither a coward nor a cunt for not wishing to engage with someone further than necessary. Not everyone is lovely and rational and reasonable and will accept a simple "I'm not interested anymore".  |

It's one of life's expected or unexpected happenings coming across people who are irrational and unreasonable. A hard fact. All of mankind will have some kind of hard experience...that's life. Life isn't fair...another fact. |

I think it's cowardly and pathetic to say nothing at all and just disappear. It's childish. An adult would simply say "I'm not interested".
No contact after that statement wouldn't be what I consider to be ghosting. I'd told the person where I stood and no further contact would be required. But to say nothing at all would be a cunt. |

I don't think the phrase is reserved solely for situations with high levels of emotions. You can ghost someone you've dated once. You can ghost someone you've never met online by just ceasing correspondence. |

The act of suddenly ceasing all communication with someone the subject is dating, but no longer wishes to date. This is done in hopes that the ghostee will just "get the hint" and leave the subject alone, as opposed to the subject simply telling them he/she is no longer interested. Ghosting is not specific to a certain gender and is closely related to the subject's maturity and communication skills. Many attempt to justify ghosting as a way to cease dating the ghostee without hurting their feelings, but it in fact proves the subject is thinking more of themselves, as ghosting often creates more confusion for the ghostee than if the subject kindly stated how he/she feels." -Urban Dictionary |

"Despite the comments, I'm neither a coward nor a cunt for not wishing to engage with someone further than necessary. Not everyone is lovely and rational and reasonable and will accept a simple "I'm not interested anymore".
-
I think it's cowardly and pathetic to say nothing at all and just disappear. It's childish. An adult would simply say "I'm not interested".
No contact after that statement wouldn't be what I consider to be ghosting. I'd told the person where I stood and no further contact would be required. But to say nothing at all would be a cunt.
I think it's more unacceptable to call someone a cunt than to just not text someone you once fucked.
Then I'm just an unacceptable type of girl...and I'm ok with that..but it isn't about one night stands it's about people you know or dating just disappearing without a trace...someone that you may of invested time and emotions with..
I don't think the phrase is reserved solely for situations with high levels of emotions. You can ghost someone you've dated once. You can ghost someone you've never met online by just ceasing correspondence. i wouldnt refer that to ghosting otherwise weve all been ghosts at some point
Perhaps everyone's a cunting coward then.
Geez you still don't get it what this thread is really about."
Stop getting your knickers in a twist over what I'm posting, just ignore me if it upsets you. |

No knickers in a twist...its commando for me. One thing I do is never assume.....it's rude. I like stating facts. |

"Personally I really dislike it. I think it's cowardly and rude. In some cases I think it shows immaturity in that someone isn't grown up enough to deal with their situations."
This. I've had it done to me a couple of times and it's a shit trick. |

Ghosting isn't about one night stands or fab meets. It is where someone has had a relationship with a person (whether romantic or friendship) and all of a sudden they vanish from their lives. No explanation or warning. |

"This all sounds a bit "Jeremy Kyle".
It's a fact this this stuff happens. There are books and articles on it. It's not an illusion. "
You're thinking of "Dynamo", Jeremy Kyle is not an illusionist.

I wasn't referring to Jeremy Kyle. I was referring to ghosting. |

Ghosts, I guess you can call it ghosting too, is also a PTSD condition.
Due to the events that have to occur for it to be triggered I won't discuss it here  |
