Ghosting is the unilateral ending or significant withdrawal of communication without a clear explanation, especially when the existing pattern of contact created a reasonable expectation that communication would continue. The definition sounds tidy. Real life is messier.

A person who stops replying after two messages on a dating app is doing something different from a partner who disappears after eight months. A friend who needs a week of quiet after a conflict is different from someone who repeatedly vanishes for months and returns as though nothing happened. Context matters: duration, intimacy, expectations, prior agreements, and whether the person had a realistic opportunity to communicate. What You Will Discover Inside Healing from Ghosting
