E48: On the topic of ghosting
This week, we’re on the topic of ghosting. In a long distance relationship, usually more than 50% of your communication and time spent together is in the digital world, a place where it’s now possible to “ghost” someone, or simply just disappear from their life and stop responding to messages and calls.
This is a topic that we get messaged about a lot, by people concerned about why their partner hasn’t responded to them in weeks, why they’re becoming less and less available or enthused about the relationship, or why they’ve just reappeared after days of silence, acting like nothing happened.
Here we discuss all of this, how to respond, and what to do if you know you’re going to be less available to speak to your partner due to upcoming commitments.
