Not humanity itself but human nature is becoming less tangible

Lights On · 19-03-2016 11:04PM

Is this similar to dogging?

According to the Huffington Post, "everyone" is talking about it: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/30/ghosting-dating-_n_6028958.html

It is an extremely sh-tty thing to do (have kinda experienced it myself, and I know one person who had it done to them in an appalling manner, as in, the person was not even all they had said they were) but I would not let it make me lose my faith in humanity.

It is indeed. But only takes place in a graveyard rather than a car-park.

You just have to take it in the right spirit.

I was wondering what all those stains on my great grandfathers gravestone were :eek:

Thats how dating is nowadays. Especially with the likes of Tinder and POF, people are disposable.

The Huffington Post is trash. It's the American TheJournal.ie. Dogsh*t "journalism."

But yeah ghosting feels bad but it's certainly not representative of humanity in general.

I did it to a girl a couple of years ago. We weren't going out at the time but weren't far off it. A ****ty thing to do and I'm still not proud of it. Won't be doing it again. I'm not a pr!k all the time though!

Don't feel too bad. It's not like we were taught in school how to break up with someone. It's difficult to be on either side of the situation.

KERSPLAT! · 19-03-2016 11:21PM

I don't think I want to know what this is...

Jim Bob Scratcher · 19-03-2016 11:21PM

I went out with a ghost once and I have to say I felt nothing.

Means blanking someone in the hope they get the hint, instead of explaining to them that you're not interested.

I'm ugly but wealthy. Went out with a ghost once. Saw right through her.

Yeah but this blanking went on for two weeks with the most plausible & frustrating of excuses

When I challenged the ghost on above article & whether they had cojones they were quick to iniate a meet up to have a chat I must of stepped on their grave right on their cojones

Closest I got to it was years ago meeting some woman that I'd very drunkenly agreed to meet a few nights before. She was acting strange all through the date and then dragged me to this bar with some very weird people there who all knew her and seemed to be mad, criminal types, one of which was not pleased to see me at all. Presumed he might have been an ex or something or maybe I was being brought there to wind him up. I went up for a round but legged it out the side door and never saw her again. Thankfully no mobiles in those days.

Pity - short term - as she was gorgeous.

Somebody was shot dead in the bar not long after and it's been closed for years now.

AFAIK It's a disappearing act, vanishing off the face of the earth.

If you change your settings to 40 posts per page then you'll still be on page one.

Add your reply here.
Lol that's not ghosting that's getting the hell out of dodge you did what you had to do

Ghosting is fading away out of a relationship My situation was two weeks after a three month stint Dating really

The fact we did not have anyone in common made it easier for them to fade

There was no break up chat

mightyreds · 19-03-2016 11:50PM

I did it once going out with this artisy type girl bought an apartment and renovated it but in the space of a week we were mugged walking home and the apartment was ransacked, it was too much to handle and I just ghosted out after that

Ghosting
