Interesting Development

[GhosterReturns]

I’ve been watching the news on and off all day. However, something has made me chuckle tonight and I have decided to put the vote out there and see what you oh wise mumsnetters think…

I got ghosted a few months ago after a string of successful dates (I thought!) and daily texts/ conversations. No reasoning, I reached out several times post ghosting and was left on read.

Randomly, out of the blue tonight I’ve noticed a missed What’s app call from him, and a deleted what’s app message….

I didn’t see these straight away as I have my phone on do not disturb past 10pm (yet I’m still awake!)

So let’s put this to the vote…I’m sat here genuinely happy and smiling, I’ve moved on but…

AIBU: Ignore…just like he did you.
AINBU: Text him and say you’ve had a missed call but you don’t recognise the number..

Please note that I’m not trying to belittle what’s going on in the world right now, but it just gave me some much needed light relief and who doesn’t love a good poll!! (Also keep reading that as poo with lots of exclamation marks, to confirm it’s poLL!!!)

P.P.S before I get bashed..No I absolutely do not want to go back there, I know my self worth etc. I just find it funny how people think they can treat people like this!

If you text him you're opening yourself up to get sucked in by him. Delete and ignore.

Ignore, ignore, ignore.

Oh defo ignore. What goes around comes around.

It may be to get your attention and get you to message him. It’s also possible he called you by mistake, sent the ‘didn’t mean to call, sorry’ message, then thought better of it as he didn’t want to initiate conversation.

Ignore ignore and thrice ignore

You know He's drunk and he wants a shag.

Block 🚫 and ignore

Ignore, ignore, and ignore again. Don't lower yourself.

Ignore.

Options are

1. He wanted to initiate contact because a) he realises the goddess you are B) he's horny but he i) is being passive and hoping you'll message him ii) regretted it immediately.

None of those options are good for your ego whether he replies or not

1. Accidentally called you, text to apologise, thought oh shit she'll think I'm trying it on and deleted it in hope you'd not notice.

Again not great for your ego.

The bigger qn is WHY DO YOU STILL HAVE HIS NUMBER?

It's possibly a pocket dial or she other error. Ignore it.

*some other error

BLOCK AND DELETE… Fool me twice, etc….

I'd rather cut my toenails than engage with such drivel
Enjoy

Delete his number or block it or something. Unfortunately it's not that unusual.

@Squishmael

Likely this, or he’s bored and trying to to a mini mind game with you.

Why have you still got this number / why are your engaging in this??

Ignore

Grow up ?

@Imonlyhereforthehandwringing

You know He's drunk and he wants a shag.

Block 🚫 and ignore

Totally

Blocked and deleted…Thanks for the reminder of who I am xx

@Dontforgetyourbrolly

Grow up ?

Stuck at 5’2 sadly….

Honestly? He probably messaged you by mistake and hasn’t given it another thought since. You should do the same.
