A couple of years ago, BankMyCell did a big study to find out how many of today’s Internet users have experienced ghosting. This means communication with another person abruptly ends. The statistics turned out to be quite revealing: 82% of women have experienced ghosting (they were ghosting someone or someone was ghosting them). 71% of men have experienced ghosting. In fact, women ghost someone significantly more often than men — 26% versus 15%. But why does this happen at all and what makes people simply break off communication without warning? And how can this be prevented? That’s what we’ll be talking about today.
