Why do men ghost ?

I just got ghosted after 5 months of great experiences, trips away, talking everyday and feelings.

Poof. Just stopped talking to me . I send a message to ask what's going on and he's online, but can't be bothered to respond.

Why are people so cruel ?

Because they lack integrity. Sorry OP x

Harsh truth is (speaking from experience) he's probably met someone else. He's a coward for it though.

What a shithead! I'm sorry too OP, I don't understand it. Even a text to say sorry this isn't for me would be crap but better than this.

Jeez this is awful. I can understand someone doing it after one or two dates but after 5 months!?!

Thing is , he's been isolating on his families farm hours from home so he can't have. But even if that were true you're right it's shitty and I can't do anything about it.

But Jesus Christ , where's the respect ? I told him I'd been ghosted before and how it made me feel and he said he would never do that to anyone. The anxiety I have felt in the past two weeks of silence , to the no response to my text finally asking what's up, has literally had me shaking .

Honestly if he just said it wasn't working I'd be sad but okay about it. To do this is soul destroying.

I know I didn't do anything wrong, but this definitely makes your mind wander down that road.

Thanks for the replies guys x

Just don’t get sucked in again if he comes crawling back. He’s a dickhead.

I won't ☺️

I just sent a " wow I expected more from you, how wrong was I?" As a closure for me. Again he came online and didn't bother to read it. I went through my social media and deleted our pics together . That was refreshing!
