I might just leave it for another week and text her then just to see how she’s getting on. I know she’s probably settling in and stuff, it’s just the case of why bother still liking all my stuff, occasionally tagging me in memes, but still not replying to me. I know that’s such a childish mentality about it, but it does make me wonder.

Usually when I’ve been ghosted, it’s just been a clean “never heard from you again” in all shapes and forms. No interactions on any platform, even down to liking each other’s stuff. I also didn’t expect her to be the kind to ghost, we were always very upfront with each other and straight to the point. No beating around the bush. It was something I really respected about her.

I wouldn’t go as far as to call ghosting “abhorrent behaviour” though. It’s not something I’ve ever done, or ever would do because I like to be up front with people as much as I can. Like I said, until now, I never really minded if I was ghosted. It’s something that’s part of this day and age, and I do understand that people are afraid of the “confrontation” of telling someone they aren’t interested. Personally, I don’t see why she’d be afraid of having that sort of conversation with me anyway. We’re both really chill people and don’t really take ourselves that seriously, so I figured if she wasn’t interested, she would have just said, as opposed to saying she really liked and and wanted to keep getting to know each other while she’s away. I’d have respected that and just gotten on with things. London’s a big city anyway, I guess if I do get closure, there are plenty more people out there. Just so difficult to find people that are so easy to get along with who ticked pretty much all your boxes!
