Well this seems to be the new trend these days in dating, the term ‘ghosting’ has become a normal part of the vocabulary when describing the magical disappearing act.
My question to all of you fellow daters is why does someone bother to waste their time as well as mine, chatting to me, texting me for over a week and then all of a sudden NOTHING!!!
GHOSTING THAT’S WHY!!!
The disrespect is rampant amongst the dating sites. It’s just too easy to move onto the next person without any thought of how someone might feel. I know I wrote about this is my previous blog but seriously I was actually feeling a little bit excited that maybe someone was interested in getting to know me but without any explanation disappeared (ghosted me!!). The sad thing is that in this past 3-4 weeks it has happened twice, both by men who are in their 50’s! It’s about time they all grew up and stopped thinking about themselves. Be an adult and tell me you’ve lost interest or met someone else.
However, if these ‘ghosters’ reappear again after dating someone else who it didn’t work with then guess what, I am NO SECOND PRIZE!!!
This brings me to last night’s date, I met this guy after work. He turned up with bike helmet in hand after arriving on his electric bike, this is OK I am not knocking it. He then tells me all about his sailing adventures he’s been on over the past 9-10 years, he shows me a picture of his view from his apartment (a very fancy suburb in the inner city). I think to myself this guy probably has some serious coin, although I am not impressed by that stuff but it would be nice to go sailing I must admit. He then announces he has to go as he has a meeting to attend, again this is OK with me. Now usually and I know this is probably not the right thing to expect but 90% of the time I get drinks paid for, on this occasion however, the bill was split. I guess these guys who go on multiple dates would become broke if they paid for everyone but seriously when this guy tells me about his fancy overseas holidays and living in a beautiful apartment the least I believe he can do is pay for wine.
There’s not really much more to tell about this story other than the fact that I haven’t heard from him again so far but to be perfectly honest I couldn’t give a ……………..and I have for now again deleted all my dating apps, this whole thing is exhausting and I am so sick of all these timewasters.
Happy dating and hopefully some of you out there start having better luck than me. J xxx
