Description

In today’s age of digital dating, the act of ghosting -- ending a relationship by suddenly stopping communication with a person -- has become more common, and even normalized to some degree. For the person being ghosted, however, it can feel incredibly painful and confusing. So why do people ghost others? Is it out of cruelty? Listen as Dr. John Grohol, founder of Psych Central, discusses the act of ghosting, why people do it, and whether it’s ever ok to ghost someone, including your therapist.
