Ghosting happens when someone that you have dated with or have had a committed relationship with, ends this relationship by cutting off all sort of communication with you, without giving you any explanation or closure. It is like receiving an ultimate silent treatment. While ghosting is usually chosen as the means for ending a rather new relation, it can be used to end even a long-term, committed relationship. These days this is not that unusual anymore and no-one can be really sure that they are save from being ghosted. So, who ghosts others? Some would say that ghosting is done by people that are bad and mean. But this would be a simplification. In fact, ghosting reflects the very core traits of the narcissistic personality disorder that is be characterised by: 👉🏼 A long-term pattern of exaggerated feelings of self-importance; 👉🏼 An excessive need for admiration; and 👉🏼 A lack of empathy for other people. If you recognise any of these in your boyfriend's or girlfriend's behaviour, you can be pretty much sure that you are dealing with the narcissist. And this also means that you have much higher chances to be ghosted by him or her than if you were dating a person who is not a narcissist. If you want to learn more about what ghosting is, why narcissists ghost others so easily, and what ghosting leaves behing, this episode will answer all your questions!
