Being ghosted is when someone chooses to not reply to your messages and calls for more than a few days, and it's one of the most annoying feelings to experience.
Ghosting is a cruel method to end friendships or relationships, but let me clarify something first, you're absolutely free to not communicate with anyone, but you shouldn't make someone question the reason why you ignore them, it's hurtful, especially for overthinkers and people who suffer from anxiety.
Negative effects of being ghosted
If someone who has anxiety gets ghosted, they will blame themselves and possibly lose self-confidence and this experience could mess with their mental and physical health.
So why do you make someone suffer by ghosting them when you could just text them that you don't want things to go any further?
Ghosting can be an easy solution for some situations, but it could really hurt people and cause them a lot of stress, and no one wants to face this karma.
So Here's the ultimate guide for being ghosted, what can you do? how do you heal from it?
-Know that ghosting is a choice that they made based on their own personality.
-Don't blame yourself and don't overanalyze what happened.
-Stay busy, focus on self-care and don't overthink.
-Talk to a friend that you trust to vent.
-Don't double text them and no matter what happens please don't ask them why they did it because they might not answer you and if they did, they might not even tell you the truth.
-No one is busy 24 hours, and anyone has enough time to reply to a text, but we choose our priorities, and we should recognize when we aren't a priority in someone's life, and that's okay.
-If you're worried that something bad might have happened to them then make sure they're alright (if they're updating their Instagram stories then they're okay).
-Mute them on social media.
-Take time to heal and allow your feelings to happen.
-Don't overshare on social media to get their attention, they'll know what you're doing, and you'll look bad, so don't change how you use social media for them.
-Don't let this experience affect how you communicate with other people and don't let it impact your future relationships.
-Don't take them back, Ghosting is part of a pattern, they will do it again and again, especially if it's a game that they play to see how you're going to react. Don't let anyone manipulate you.
-Focus on yourself, prioritize your well-being, and don't waste your energy on someone with poor communication skills.
Modern technology makes ghosting the "comfortable" way to end connections, but it can have a huge impact on the person who got ghosted.
