You're a free spirit, unencumbered by the burdens of human connection. You do you. You ghost people. It's a lifestyle.
But have you ever stopped to think about the emotional labor you're saving yourself by ghosting? The not having to worry about someone else's feelings? The not having to make plans? The not having to listen to their problems?
It's like, have you ever heard of 'ghosting as a form of self-care'? No? Well, now you have.
Here are a few benefits of ghosting as a form of self-care:
- No more awkward small talk.
- No more 'can we talk about this later?'.
- No more 'I'm still thinking about you'.
And don't even get me started on the benefits of ghosting in the morning.
But what about the potential drawbacks? Like, what about the person on the other end?
Well, let's be real, they'll get over it. They'll just move on to someone else who's not a ghoster extraordinaire like you.
So, go ahead. Ghost away. For the sake of your own sanity.
Or, like, don't. We won't judge.
