I'm pretty good at it. I don't try to be an #######, but I have a penchant for leaving people on read. How about you?
This is awesome. Very true. I think the OP is being sarcastic, though.SInce I'm more than five years old, no.
The sad reality is that most friendships have expiration dates, and a great majority of those do not need "we are breaking up as friends" conversations. Sometimes they just end and you both move on.I ghosted someone once after years. We just couldn't talk without a fight, and I couldn't go through the two hundredth, so I just opted to not inform her we were through. My friend (who became a former friend) told her. This has always been a bit of a blight on my character, but I'm going to claim extenuating circumstances and forgive myself.
I agree, but this was dating. It had grown ugly, though. I remember getting kicked and stuff. Not good. Just tired of it. No more. No mas.The sad reality is that most friendships have expiration dates, and a great majority of those do not need "we are breaking up as friends" conversations.

That has nothing to do with ghosting. If there is a next time, end it at once. Entities such as that deserve no consideration.I agree, but this was dating. It had grown ugly, though. I remember getting kicked and stuff. Not good. Just tired of it. No more. No mas.
Yeah, you're right. I was twenty-two. It didn't phase me other than in retrospect. I think it was once, actually, that part. I was just sick of it. I'm forty-six now. I have no real esteem or issues of the ghosting/relationship type right now. Ghosting is often juvenile, stupid, and a power play for the emotionally stunted. Perhaps courtesy is outmoded, but I'd hesitate to think that.That has nothing to do with ghosting. If there is a next time, end it at once. Entities such as that deserve no consideration.
But ghosting is just juvenile.
Yes, yes it is.Uh, what are we even talking about?
This this when you poop but you look in the bowl afterwards and there is nothing there?
MahaloI don't know if this is the same thing, but I call it the Irish Exit, and I'm the master of it. I never say goodbye at anything. Odds are I'll see you again. And who has the time.
My old friend James was the same way. You'd be out at a bar after hanging out all night, turn around, and James would have already pulled his exit. Didn't just do it to me. Did it to everybody.I don't know if this is the same thing, but I call it the Irish Exit, and I'm the master of it. I never say goodbye at anything. Odds are I'll see you again. And who has the time.
Yep. The Irish Exit is my move too. My wife, on the other hand, is a master of the “keep asking open ended random questions right when we are trying to leave” move.I don't know if this is the same thing, but I call it the Irish Exit, and I'm the master of it.

Is this some kind of trick to get me replying to your post again?I'm pretty good at it. I don't try to be an #######, but I have a penchant for leaving people on read. How about you?
My buddy did this all the time. He called it "ninja bombing".My old friend James was the same way. You'd be out at a bar after hanging out all night, turn around, and James would have already pulled his exit. Didn't just do it to me. Did it to everybody.
My GF is the same. She'll tell me we're ready to leave, then it's always another hour more because she ends up starting conversations with everyone as we try to leave. Super annoying.Yep.

You think that’s bad? My wife forces us to stay until the end of every party, when she’ll offer to help the hosts clean up.My GF is the same.

I usually have to kneel down and smell the bowl to determine whether I should flush.Uh, what are we even talking about?

Sounds like you need to get so drunk at these parties that she wants to get you out of there ASAP.Terminalxylem said:You think that’s bad? My wife forces us to stay until the end of every party, when she’ll offer to help the hosts clean up.
One of the many silver linings to pandemic social restrictions.
Yikes that's terrible. I'd never go out if my partner insisted on that. After 2 hours I'm ready to leave all social events.Terminalxylem said:You think that’s bad? My wife forces us to stay until the end of every party, when she’ll offer to help the hosts clean up.

This would be an epic way to end your fbg tenure, but dude, don't go. I am your number 3 fan.Last time you’ll hear from me.
You’re one of those?I don't know if this is the same thing, but I call it the Irish Exit, and I'm the master of it. I never say goodbye at anything. Odds are I'll see you again. And who has the time.
Whenever I'd say that no one would let me leave. It was always "c'mon one more beer"! Just "going to the bathroom" and not returning is much easier.You’re one of those?
It takes like one minute to say, “hey guys I’m outta here.”
Then you say, "no thanks [insert whatever reason]" and you go.Whenever I'd say that no one would let me leave. It was always "c'mon one more beer"! Just "going to the bathroom" and not returning is much easier.
Not that easy if you knew my former drinking buddies.Then you say, "no thanks [insert whatever reason]" and you go.
