Anyone who doesn’t reply is guilty of ghosting the OP!! 
In all seriousness, don’t let it get to you. Block and move on. It happens.  | |||

"Whats ghosting ? People just stop talking to you as if they’ve disappeared of the face of the eart.....
I thought that was called ‘normal’ "I thought you were calling ME normal then 
Phew. 
It is just part of life I’m afraid. People don’t know how to say no for fear of upsetting someone. Also, when people say no they’ve often been harassed afterwards for saying no.

"The most annoying thing on here! A simple "after chatting I'm no longer interested" or even just block someone if you really want. " Yip I find it really annoying and pretty childish. I've been ghosted by a fb from here. A simple "I'm no longer interested" would have been nice. Just need to get on with it I guess but it's too easy to act like an arse these days with so much technology. | |||

"...think I'd rather someone just slipped off quietly than be blocked out of the blue or told I liked you until you talked ha!" I can see the temptation in that, but to have folk just stop replying is, at best, confusing. Leaves you wondering if it was something you said that was somehow offensive. Especially with the sudden block. There you are, happily chatting away then the next time you log on you're blocked. Total wtf moment. If someone you were friendly with in real life said something you didn't like you'd say something about it and any misunderstanding would be cleared up. On here it just seems to be overreaction city. | |||

"Sometimes disappearing without comment is easy to figure out. If you send 3 or 4 messages then a pic and you don't hear back after the pic then it means you've come across a shallow person who clearly doesn't like your face/body and theyve legged it. The ones I don't get are the ones you chat to seemingly quite happily with then after an innocuous message like "hope you had a good day at work, do you fancy chatting some more" and the. It goes quiet. You then see them online later on and ask how they are getting on, you see your message is read but no reply. You then start thinking, is it worth another message or are you just being a pest now? If the other party would just say "sorry, not interested anymore" or "hey, busy right now but can chat at the weekend" then surely that would be a far more civil way to interact with a fellow human being? Also. What's with all the hostility on the thread now? Can't we all just be friends (with or without benefits) " sorry are you saying that someone that's not attracted to you is shallow? | |||

Personally I'd agree with you but it's quite common to hear from, especially females, who have said thanks but no thank politely and then got abuse. So it's understandable that quite a lot might just eventually stop chatting and leave the contacting. No one should take it personal just means your not for them or someone more interesting caught their eye or personal shit got in the way. It's just the way of fab We should all just deal with it and get on. | |||

Xx" I'm seeing ghosting is just starting messages with someone and say its going Ok, nothing bad just good general chat on here and then say after 5th message the other person just stops. That's what I take is ghosting. if its messaging, someone, getting on ad messaging the next day, I don't see that as ghosting but id like to think that if not for them they'd let me or you know. Suppose ghosting can be viewed a few different ways on here Sorry OP if I've got your terminology of ghosting wrong | |||

"Very interesting topic and it seems to be answered from two very different dynamics ,From the male point of view it seems no reply from first point of contact or two or three messages then a halt , from what female friends tell me , most men , me included have absolutely no idea the volume of mail most of the ladies receive , and to be honest if I was getting dozens of ladies mailing me daily , ( don’t get that annually) a few things are likely to happen , 1 lose track completely and the male ego goes into afterburner or 2 be chatting nicely and someone mails you , floats your boat and you spend the forthcoming time messaging them or wanting them to message, It’s human nature so while ghosting does exist , it’s not always down to bad manners, just dust yourself down and move along , I’ve spoken to many ladies in forum who blew me out , never replied to first message or said thanks but no thanks , been blown out before and will again, but keep punching upwards , it can and will pay off, it’s different strokes for different folks as that great American Philosopher Gary Coleman said Remember if you never been knocked back ? You’ve never hit on anyone " | |||

Not replying to a thought out message is just rude imo. If however the guy replys with why am i not your type or any other plz explain type message THEN ignoring, blocking or ghosting or telling him to feck off is perfectly acceptable. Imo. Xx" think wee guys forget the amount of msgs woman get. Be hard to reply to then all. | |||
