EXISTENCE IS PAIN😬
I dunno man 10 years ago I was dating online and when you never heard back from someone/they treated you like a telemarketer when you called them that was a pretty good indicator they weren't interested. Most goony fragile egos can't handle the actual reason so just not calling kinda gives you an out without feeling utterly humiliated.

But apparently ghosting is a thing for newfangled Millenials and ppl are getting buthurt and whatnot. What the gently caress?

I certainly dont have deep-seated issues involving birthdays.
And here I thought ghosting someome was the cutesy euphamism for quietly murdering them used in the hit movie Predator

Sometimes changing servers to get a better spot in your FPS game is a good plan of action, especially if out numbered.

Ghosting's like when you're at work and hide in the back of the truck to have a nap or grab a manila folder and walk around looking like you're doing something important to avoid doing actual work. It's like the main thing you do in the military and it's considered legit if you can get away with it.

I'm not sure what ghosting is op. Maybe that's what happens when op's do a suicide and then haunt the forums like the poverty ghost
