POP003 - Boo! The Act of Ghosting

Ghosting. The practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly, and without explanation, disappearing from all communication. This term is most often utilised in the context of online dating. Many of us midlife daters have both been ghosted and have ghosted someone who we just no longer want to communicate with. But why do we do it? And what is the impact on those who have been ghosted? We hear people's stories and finish with the story of someone who was ghosted in a pretty humiliating way but went on to find a relationship through an online dating site.
