My old person trait is that I think ‘ghosting’ is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

        a relationship is a voluntary situation

        Except if you’re standing next to me in the supermarket. Or at the bus stop. Or sitting near me in a restaurant. Or at the doctors office and so on. And in all of these situations, I expect common courtesy from you. Or I consider you as an asshole.

          since we are talking about ghosting and not a random interaction id say you are off topic.

            No, you are talking about “ghosting”. You are the only person in this comment thread to type that word, twice. This post is not simply about ghosting, it is about “old person traits”. You can tell because you can read the title.

            Common incel energy.

                    Lol k. Well when you grow up and learn to have a proper and mature debate/argument, we’ll be here.

                    Till then, it might be helpful for you to learn nuance~

                  It was mentioned in the original post in the body of the text, just not in the image. I think that’s the confusion.
