Do you consider ghosting people a reasonable way to deal with today’s overwhelming and constant information and notification overload? Or do you find it offensive and unfriendly?
Would you equate it to a person ignoring you irl or is ignoring a text different?
For this post let’s assume the people involved are or were in the past friends, and ghosting is leaving someone on “read” for more than 2 days.
Since many have already answered to OP, I will ask another version of question similar to this.
What kind of ghosting is this when people only text you when you text them first? And when you don’t, the conversation never happens again?
Answer: that’s not ghosting. That’s like saying “what kind of lamp is this computer speaker?”
Ghosting is when the other person never responds, ever, even if you send them messages. As long as they respond, again, that’s not ghosting.
That’s just a person for whom you are not a priority in their lives.
Not ghosting if you aren’t cut off, imo its not ghosting if you still follow or have each other as friends on any social media, if someone stops responding and removed you everywhere, that is ghosting
The ADHD type. People stop existing when they’re out of render distance.
