The Psychology Behind Ghosting
Examining The Mind of a Ghoster
Ghosting occurs when a person disappears out of nowhere, with no warning.
You could be in a romantic attachment with a swell guy. This guy has got it all — the looks, the intelligence, and the chemistry. You get together a few times. You splurge and devote time to this person.
You have a few intimate moments. Sparks fly, and there’s no one in the world to stop you. One thing leads to another…and you’re now texting each other every single day.
You share intimate moments. You’re bursting at the brim for the chance to get to know him better. He’s equally excited, too.
But then one day, you will text him. One day, this person may stop responding. Any requests to see this person go unnoticed, even after many pleas from you. Even attempts from his own immediate friends or family are met with nothingness.
It was as if he never existed. Immediate family check out his residence — he’s not there. His classmates can’t find him in their class. His social media profiles seemingly don’t exist anymore. Any references to the guy are met with confusion.
Dear friend, this man has ghosted you, and the entire community. With such masterful skill, he’s done the evilest thing ever.
