The Psychology of Ghosting: Reasons and Residue
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Examines the act of ghosting from the perspective of the person who does it, rather than the one being ghosted. It explains that people often disappear without communication due to mental exhaustion, feeling overwhelmed, or emotional burnout, rather than mere carelessness or rudeness.
It also explores the psychological consequences for the ghoster, noting that avoiding difficult conversations can create unresolved guilt and “emotional residue,” potentially undermining their sense of self-trust.
Additionally, the passage highlights deeper psychological roots, such as fear of being hurt or past emotional trauma, while recognizing that ghosting can sometimes be a necessary and healthy boundary when dealing with abusive, manipulative, or unsafe individuals.
