It’s the word on every dater’s tongue and also the bane of their existence.

However, that doesn’t stop modern daters from doing it.

If you’ve ever been ghosted, you know it’s not a good feeling.

You’re left without answers or closure, and it’s simply not fair.

That’s usually a sign of ghosting or that you’re about to get ghosted.

This leaves you in the dark, contemplating what you did wrong.

Detachment can also easily be observed on a date.

Well, not for active ghosters.

Not sharing personal information makes dipping out of a relationship fast and easy.

They never show up

Dates can be exciting.

And that’s why it hurts so bad when you’re stood up.

And though embarrassment is a normal emotion and completely justified, realize that you are not at fault.

Going ghost on social media might be a sign they are about to ghost in real life you too.

Let’s face it: Social media can make us feel like we’re in the FBI.

It’s the perfect snooping tool.

Ghosters are smart by taking a hiatus because it makes it harder to gather information.

This can be totally frustrating when you just want clear answers about your relationship.

Maybe they’re about to ghost you, and as an equal, you deserve answers and closure.

It’s okay if they’re not interested, but they should have the respect to tell you.

If they don’t, then you have your answer.

In general, it’s not too difficult totell when someone’s ghosting you.

Just think of it as the universe’s way of telling you to keep looking for that special someone.

For now, just relax and take care of yourself.
