Ghosting is a term that has been around a while but has gained a lot of traction over the last couple of years. It is something that can happen to anyone, and in some ways, it is good to just accept that it happens sometimes and move on. That said, with a good understanding of what ghosting is you can set yourself up for success when it comes to dating.
Ghosting is the term used when somebody just stops responding to you due to them losing interest. They choose not to respond to any text messages or phone calls you make to them. The vast majority of the time, ghosting happens after just a few dates. On occasion, people have expressed it happening to people they have been dating for a while.
In an adult chat line, you meet a lot more people than you might in regular dating. Because you have dates with people more often, sometimes ghosting happens at what seems to be a higher rate. In reality, it often happens at about the same rate it might in traditional dating.
Ghosting is considered rude in most circles if it happens on the first couple dates. If it happens after that, many people would consider it to be mean. It’s as if you were dating someone, and they decided to drop off the planet.
For people who are not interested in the other person anymore, the conversation can be difficult to have. It is much better though, to keep your doors open and pick up your phone to let them know what’s up. With phone dating, this can often happen over the phone and be natural and simple. With traditional dating, some people find it rude to break up over the phone.
All and all, the only way to prevent ghosting is to both meet people who are nice enough that they wouldn’t do it and to make sure there are open lines of communication and nonjudgment during the dating process.
By building a strong relationship, you can avoid a lot of the tension that might come when it does not work out.
