Ghosters why can't you be honest?

If someone isn't putting effort into the conversation, I'm not going to continue it. This has happened several times, I get contacted by people that are looking for a very casual conversation (and pretty one sided one) and there's no indication in my posts that I'm looking for that.

Additionally, it does feel weird to declare to someone that you don't wish to speak to them anymore. I've done that a couple times with people I've had more in depth conversations with but it's weird when I've started talking to someone very recently and its already apparent it's not going anywhere. I've had it be apparent like three responses into the convo, it's very abrupt to declare to them that it's not going anywhere at that point.

I've been ghosted before, I've had my messages ignored, it's really not that big of a deal. I think I actually prefer it to some stranger declaring that they don't like me. You shouldn't be so attached to an internet stranger that you've had a short conversation with.
