Everyone’s been ghosted (some of us more than others), and no matter which end you’re on it’s never a fun experience.
Just last month I got ignored by a guy after our pretty awkward first date didn’t go so great, in fact, and joined the unofficial Ghosted Club myself. From a classic case of “being left on read” to the more extreme “having my date climb out the bathroom window during dinner”, we decided to get into the Halloween spirit and share some of our favorite ghosting stories from twitter and beyond.
Haley seems to sum up the art pretty well in this tweet:
flirting? you mean liking each other’s tweets on a semi regular basis until one of you slides into the other’s dm’s, y’all talk for three weeks, and then you randomly ghost or get ghosted? yeah i’m skilled in the art what’s up

Flawless logic, I guess?
Went on a date with a guy and we text over the next few days and then suddenly he went a little quiet. I dropped in that if he wasn\’t interested it\’s no prob. He text to say don\’t be silly, if he wasn\’t interested he\’d just stop texting. That was the last text he sent 😆

I guess he didn’t like long distance relationships…

At least this woman got some free stuff out of it!
A million years ago in my early 20s, dated a guy for the summer, he said he wanted to move to Mpls so he signed the lease with me and roommates, moved his stuff in and said he was “going to Madison for the weekend” and I didn’t hear from him again.

So many ghosts here, but no one finding any boos.
