Dating in the digital age is both exhilarating and overwhelming. With countless ways to communicate, it seems easier than ever to maintain connections – or to let them fizzle out without confrontation. Enter my guide to soft ghosting, a term that’s crept into our modern dating vocabulary.
Read MoreA reader sent in the following question, so I figured it was the perfect time to answer it: “Why did I get soft ghosted after a few months of talking?” Soft ghosting, in case you weren’t aware, is a really shitty move that’s seen as less shitty than full-on ghosting. Rather than cutting all communication suddenly, out of nowhere, like with regular ghosting, soft ghosting is a slow fade-out, of sorts.
Read MoreIn the world of modern relationships, ghosting has become an all-too-common experience. One moment you’re having meaningful conversations and planning your next date, and the next, the person vanishes without a trace, leaving you to wonder what went wrong. While being ghosted can feel sudden and confusing, there are often subtle signs you’re about to get ghosted.
Read MoreGhosting is shit; there’s no denying that. The person who does the ghosting seems to sail off into the sunset, living life without even so much as a blink of karma… all the while you’re crying your way through multiple boxes of Kleenex, damning yourself for ever having responded to their message. If you’ve ever wondered what to do when you’ve been ghosted, crying through multiple boxes of tissues is probably a better idea than 99% of the post-ghost ideas I’ve had.

Read MoreI’ve been ghosted. It’s quite unpleasant, deeply confusing, and a proper shitty move… but I think I’ve been the perpetrator of ghosting as well as the victim. Accidentally, deliberately, and coincidentally… In some cases, ghosting is necessary, but does that mean, ghosting is acceptable on some occasions, but not others? And if that’s the case, what are the rules? Should I give a second chance to someone who ghosted me?
Read MoreGhosting: the modern-day vanishing act that’s less Houdini and more, “Wait… did they just forget I exist?” One minute you’re trading flirty texts and planning your next date, and the next? Poof! They’re gone, leaving behind only the faint echo of “Haha, you’re so funny,” and a breadcrumb trail of unanswered messages. We’ve all been there. Heck, I’ve got enough experience to write the guide to ghosting and getting ghosted!
Read MoreAfter all that drama, thinking he’d ghosted me, then him thinking I’d ghosted him, plus technology drama … Simon went and ACTUALLY fucking ghosted me…
Read MoreHello, my name is NotSoSexintheCity and I am an asshole. Not only am I an asshole, but I also jump to conclusions and apparently don’t have a very good handle of modern technology. I need to tell you a story. May this story serve as not only entertainment and light afternoon reading, but also as a warning. Are you ready? Bestie: ”Hey, are you aware that your WhatsApp has been broken for like three days? Messages aren’t sending to you. I’m only getting one tick. Everyone else is getting my…
Read MoreHey Simon! I just wanted to say a little cheers for ghosting me when there was nothing wrong, completely out of the blue, when we were getting along just fine. That was definitely appreciated. I also wanted to make sure you DEFINITELY know I think you’re a bellend. (Not that you’ll ever read this.) I’m also quite glad that you’ve ghosted and blocked me.
