English Slang words from A-Z

Ghosting

Definition: Ghosting refers to the act of suddenly cutting off all communication with someone without any explanation or warning. It is commonly used in the context of dating or friendship, where one person stops responding to messages or calls and disappears without any reason.

Use case: You can use ghosting when you want to end a relationship or friendship without having to confront the other person. For example, if you have been on a few dates with someone but you're not interested in pursuing a relationship with them, you might choose to ghost them instead of telling them directly. However, it is important to note that ghosting can be hurtful and disrespectful, and it's always better to communicate your feelings honestly and respectfully.
