I post new love life advice for you every weekend.

Have you ever been a victim of the most painful kind of ghosting . . . where you’re haunted by the fact that you never got closure with someone?
It’s the sort of thing that can consume your thoughts as you obsessively look over the final exchange you had with the person and enlist your friends to help you dissect it, hoping they can spot a clue you might have missed.
The reality is that this need for clarity and closure is a bid for control in a situation where you have none. Not only that, but every time you allow your thoughts to head in that direction, it’s another scratch at a wound that wants so badly to heal.
In today’s brand-new video, I give you the tools you need to move on for good from this kind of ghosting, including a text message you can send . . . not to get closure from them but to give yourself the closure you need.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that when a guy is interested, he doesn't confuse you. And when he ghosts you, it doesn't matter what the reason is, the point is he's just not that into you and the longer you ruminate on it, the longer it will take you to find the right guy. Remember that right now someone is thinking about when he will find someone like you. Let's value the good guys.

Wow that was so beautiful said ❤ Felt good to hear 😊 The thing is also that many guys are not interested in any girl more than one night 😂 so we shouldn’t take it personal cause the players f boys that we often fall for unfortunately have done the same and gosted 1000 girls or more before us depending on their age and how often they hunt 😂🤥 They often meet one new girl every weekend so in one year they met like 50 girls 😂😳 And the more future faking and knowing to play the game and good at lying they are the more girls fall and get ghosted by these nasty narcissistic guys 🤢🫣 so thats also why they have a lot of enemies from ghosting 👻 but their karma is their own life and empty future 😂 If they were just honest from the beginning and said they didn’t want have a relationship they would yes miss out on some hook ups but they would have authenticity to themselves and others and wouldn’t have so many resentful hurt girls whom they played with their hearts without any empathy 🙅‍♀️ But the best revenge and also closure is to ignore him totally and not even write a message that we miss the guy after we met and I also think the guy should be a gentleman and write first but maybe I am just old fashioned 😂 Ghosting is an arrogant selfish un empathic way of closure but still a closure. My experience is that if the guy hasn’t written in 2 days 48h after you met he not gonna write at all and probably also ghost if the girl write first. A good respectful guy do give closure cause he shows respect and loves to give the truth 👍

@@DelseyRitzy got ghosted by last gf of 4 years,just as we were finnishing renovating our future "family" apartment. First i noticed a change in her behaviour, regular "headaches",unwillingness to talk, then after months it started to affect me as well,so I became "colder". She did everything in the playbook to make me break up with her, but stupid and naive as I was,I tried to fix it,while there wasnt anything to fix,she had decided she wants to move on. Which is sad in itself for me at least,since I love her with all my heart, but that gaslighting, "keeping" the story up when she allready knew she wants out is what hurted most.

Please, please, please don't contact anyone who has broken all contact with you. Their silence is SCREAMING how they feel about you which is not much. They don't value you or your precious time. Please move on and find someone who can't wait to spend time with you. Someone who can't wait to hear the sound of your voice and who is counting the minutes until they can see you again. He or she is out there waiting for you. I wish anyone who is reading this all of the best. Hugs.

As a man, I just need to take a moment to address this topic. I was ghosted 6 months ago by someone who I loved maybe more than anyone I have ever loved in my life. She told me she loved me and that she would call later...and then never contacted me again. My problem with ghosting is that it isn't just awful. It is more than that. It is a violation of some unspoken agreement people have with each other that social media allows to happen far easier. This woman and I....have history. We were good together in my opinion. Her ghosting me shattered both my illusion of who I thought she was and a world view I held because of her. She was influential and her thoughts and opinions were ones I held in high regard. She had health issues. Baggage. Children I'd come to learn so much about. She's gone. Is she well? Is she Ill? Does she hate me now? Was she unhappy in secret? And many more questions that will probably never get answers. The hardest thing about this situation is the new world view I have to construct while also mourning the loss of a relationship that had been a pillar of my foundation. I care Matthew. Not because I need closure, but because it is decent I feel. It feels like NOT CARING about THIS woman is not just indecent, it feels so wrong to me. All of which im working through. What I think you should talk about in the future is to not just convince a person why not to give them energy, but also how to properly mourn the relationship lost. Whether it's a random you just met, or a person you've known decades. I don't want to think about her. I don't want to give it energy, but when a huge part of you...a person that helped shape you, is now gone for seemingly no reason.....how does one learn to live in this brand new alternate life created by this devastating change? That to me is probably a similar feeling felt by anyone ghosted. A new reality born of a person choosing to ignore your existence and letting you KNOW it.

@scarlettrose221 Жыл бұрын
Your comment is brilliant. I can understand and empathise with everything you have said here. Being denied closure from someone we felt a strong connection to is unthinkably heartbreaking. What makes a person wake up, and decide that it’s over? When it was nothing but good. The way they can move on with their life as if nothing happened, is the most devastating realisation of all. And I wish it were that easy when people say “time heals”. For me, time has done nothing but given me more months to carry the grief. The perspective of never meeting again is unbearable. At the end of the day, it’s their loss. They missed out on someone who loved them without conditions.

@@scarlettrose221 it feels so similar to death that I feel both justified and horrified by the comparison. It feels like she died suddenly. Not the her cozy in her bed right this moment still ignoring me, but the person I knew her as. I feel grief because I care. I feel hurt because I loved. I feel devastated because this act is her real feelings and she refused to share why. It all reminds me of losing a loved one, but premeditated and just for you. No one else feels it. Because you’re the only one ghosted. It is so cruel that it knew she were capable of doing this to ANYONE I would have refused to date her no matter how much I loved her.

The grief from this overwhelms our senses, & can almost be paralyzing. Ghosting, and not getting any answers, is emotional cruelty. It shows their character. It’s hard to accept, I’ve been struggling too. There’s nothing I could do to change what was never meant to be. This is what I tell myself. I hope you find your peace. ❤️

Ask my opinion on job offers but ultimately decided to take 1 that be closer to me… or so he says. Saying on a couple of times for me to “ give us a chance . I wanna keep you around . Can I keep you. This our second chance . This seems like a dream” to radio silence . I’ve had a thing for him for years and allegedly so did he but the timing wasn’t right then .. reconnected over Facebook end of March . He’s definitely got things going on. At one point he say I want to be with you but my situation is complicated…we were supposed to have the conversation but forgot to bring it up. Things were amazing then I drop him off. And with that 12 hour drive till he got to where he was going then after that he vanished ..

So much yes. Most painful and most insidious, because in your mind that incredible person can't just do it to you without a good reason. Makes you build alternative explanations in your mind, keeps you thinking, remembering the good parts, hoping. I spent a year in that mind trap, completely detached from reality, because it was too painful to accept it for what it is. I feel so silly now, and angry at myself.

I would add that many times people ghost because they met someone, but they still want to have you on the hook for later. They know if they tell you that they dumped you and were dating someone they liked more, but it didn’t work out, you’re not going to welcome them back. That should be enough to stop anyone from worrying about a ghoster. Just picture them out there having a grand time with someone else. Then picture that when they get dumped, they want the option to run back to you and feel your interest and how you were so worried and thinking about them. It’s about ego and having options for a lot of people that ghost. By leaving everything a mystery, they can still come back and tell any lie they want.

And I was okay with that, being friend, rejection in romantic life is just Stat now for me. But never in my life that I considered my friend, and someone who said on multiple occasions that they are mine made me feel so UNWORTHY. AM I that unworthy that I don't even get an explanation. At random 3am I recall every moment and chats that had with her... Just to find my mistakes and I'm like okay this was there but we resolved it. So then what happen why leave suddenly, I wasnt gonna ask you to stay if u don't want too... But atleast say good byes...

The more you do the inner work on self love and realising how 'your person' is someone who is soo interested in you and want to talk to you, spend time with you, make plans with you... you literally do not care if someone ghosts you. It's like good riddance, you can focus your time on someone who is excited by you! You just keep doing you, put yourself out there again and the more you increase your magnetism and self awareness with dating, you stop attracting men who ghost you. You really do. You start attracting high value men.

It has taken me over 2 years to get over the rejection I felt. I had panic attacks, and started suffering from anxiety too. I know that sounds extreme but that's how I felt. I am absolutely over the whole thing, after 2 and a half years and now im with a man that treats me like a princess. But some people really can cause so much damage by not just being upfront and honest...that's all it takes. It's an awful feeling and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy xx

Please excuse my crass language, but never let someone else being an asshole make you feel dumb. Remember that no matter how bad you might feel in any given situation, nothing is permanent, even if it is the worst pain you have ever felt. Just hang in there, learn what you can from the situation, and try to save your feelings for the people who are worthy of them.

Oh wow. That is sooooo relevant to what I feel now. I have always been a rather confidently sociable person and always had good relationships with men. I encountered two in the past six month that were completely different than I had ever met before. The first I knew vaguely from some work I did about seven (!) years ago. He emailed me one day last summer just in a very casual and friendly manner over something work-related. Then he started writing these emails telling me how interesting he found me and really wanted to get to know me better. I will say I wasn't 'into' him in any other than a distantly friendly way. He asked me to meet him for coffee one day and I didn't wish to travel into town so I said no. The next time I had to go in anyway and I thought he had a business question. Log story short, he actually tried to strangle me. I got out though it really shook me badly. The weird thing is when I started to answer his business question, he suddenly started lecturing me on how he didn't want to use me in any way and blah blah blah. It was as if he somehow assumed from nothing at all that I was going to turn into some strange romance novel character. Then he grabbed me by the neck and arm. Yes, I should have reported this but I was so utterly astonished that I have to admit I didn't and then, once the bruising faded, I knew it was too late. I did, however, inform his partner and sent her all the messages he sent me. I did not in any way wish to hurt her. He called me screeching and said she had low esteem. Now, why did that not surprise me? Meanwhile he imagines himself to be some sort of god. I was badly rattled by this but what really pained me was the whole performance of acting friendly. It was as if he knew I have a healthy confidence and used that against me. The second I actually did hit it off with in the sense that we had, at first, a shared humour. He sent me some messages saying he hoped we would become friends. Well, be my friend then, I thought. No ceremony required for that. Then he just vanished. Great friend. Then he re-appeared and I stated that I did not like being toyed with. He vanished again. Oh well. I don't want 'friends' like that! But I have realised over the past few days that I feel twisted in my stomach and have tarted to feel as if I don't want people in my life at all. I cannot comprehend the point of all of this weird behaviour and why it has even affected me so much. I have a son who is 26 and his friends and I know them all quite well and in both cases, I know, they all would have been utterly at a loss with this sort of nonsense. If any of you are in that age group, don't give up because these young men are grown ups now, for real.

The thing about ghosting is that there is no closure. I find for me, I get away from it by just getting busy and doing stuff. It hurts in the moment, but with time, it lessens. I did meet someone last year who ghosted me. I sort of knew it was going to happen; my gut told me that he was the kind. When it happened, I did reach out and asked, if he was going ok. And he didn't reply so I forgot about him. Took 2 weeks when I was constantly wondering if I was mistaken. I felt dejected and depressed but in the end I got over it. We had no social media connection and so it wasn't hard. I just told myself, he was a terrible person to begin with so it was no loss never seeing him again.

I have been ghosted. In a weird way, it is closure. They no longer value you. They no longer want to be with you. When the fog or confusion fades, your clarity returns. You realize that you ignored the red flags and they did you a favor by disappearing. Most likely, you could not fully trust or depend on them to be there for you. It hurts but you move on.

Although I struggle with it as well, I'm coming to understand that if someone really wants to be in your life, they will be. It won't matter how busy they are, they will still give you priority. Even if they are introverted, even if they hate communication through technology, they will still find a way to be in your life. I've been in enough friendships/relationships to see this. Yes, being ghosted sucks. Trust me, I know. I'm currently going through being ghosted at the moment and I'm trying to push through it and not invest in that anymore. But I don't want someone in my life who doesn't want to be there. I don't want someone in my life who doesn't give me some sort of priority or who doesn't put in effort. It's not fair to me and I will definitely not enjoy myself if I try to be in that kind of a relationship. It still hurts because you really wanted to make it work with that person, but moving on really is the best way to let go of those anxious feelings.

Yes, in most cases it is true. At times yes, some massive incidents make communication with someone to end abruptly but if someone treats you seriously even after long time from such occurence they will try to explain themselves and give you closure. And this is how you know you were dealing with someone mentally healthy and stable. Since there is nothing normal about ghosting someone. In romantic or non-romantic relationships.

This very situation happened to me with a guy I was seeing for about 6 weeks. Everything seemed great during that time and we always talked about how easy it was to be with each other. All of a sudden I never heard back from him. After about a week of no communication I reached out and had to asked him what happened. He told me he wasn’t in a good place to give me what I deserved. Ghosting is possibly the worst thing you can do to someone. It leaves you incredibly confused and hurt. It’s not normal to hear from someone every day and all of a sudden never again.

If someone ghosts us, what we learn is not about ourselves (“we’re unworthy of even an explanation”) - we learn about THEM. And their weak response system. And how they treat people. They take the easy way out, without caring about your feelings. When sth is wrong, they avoid the difficult conversation, and it opens up room for inauthenticity and deceit. It’s extremely immature, and they’re at the level where they’re not recognizing it as such. You don’t need a person like that in your life - a source of suffering. There’s no trust or loyalty here. It may not be their fault, yes, but you don’t have to be around that either. It’s important who you choose to spend your time with. You can only feel safe when you trust that they’re gonna tell you if something is wrong. When they’re authentic. As always, you’re so brilliant at putting what may seem obvious in a way that screams “Eureka”. Thank you so much, Matthew.

I was previously a widow so all that loss and pain came rushing back but the difference is there is no closure which is much harder to carry. It's my day 2 and my pride will never let me contact him with "What's going on, are you ok"? questions. My heart has become hardened and I realise he is a coward. He saved me in the long run by ghosting me. Thank you for this video. My heart aches for ALL who get ghosted but remember its done by cowards and weak people.

I let the conversation end and wished him a nice day. I desperately wanted to bring it up to get an answer from him but I wouldn’t want to date someone who conducts himself like that.

Ma'am, can I seek your wisdom on the following information. Ma'am, Alice and Tom were good friends before they came into a relationship. Things didn't work out between them because Tom had a weak personality. He was not mature. He was an overly emotional person, on the other hand, Alice was practical and mature enough to realize that the relationship is toxic. She ended things with Tom. Since they both were friends in the past, so they continued their friendship even after the breakup. They never discussed anything related to their personal lives. Even when Alice tried to tell Tom that she likes someone, tom requested her not to discuss such stuff as it makes him uncomfortable. Alice respected that and never discussed anything related to guys. They always ask about each other's well-being and mental health and were supportive of each other. Things were going petty well until one day Alice called Tom and told him and she is taken. She is with someone else. And this new guy and she promised each other that they will not talk to anyone from their past. She was the one who suggested this. She warned Tom not to contact her again otherwise she will block him. She said she has no other choice but to cut off Tom because they both shared a past. Tom break down over that phone call, this further pissed off Alice, and she ended up saying harsh words. Tom finally promised her that he will not text her again. Tom knew that he will never be able to provide Alice with the kind of life she deserves. This new guy has everything she ever wanted in a male( provider, smart, strong, mature, have a plan). He knew that loving someone is not just enough one has to have a plan. Tom still thinks about Alice's mental health and her mom's health. Tom believes that if he truly loves Alice then he must let her go. He must respect her decision. Tom doesn't have a job. He is now working hard to get a job. Ma'am, do you think Tom did the right thing? Ma'am, this tom is no one but me.

It was 3 weeks ago and have been torturing myself with why I wasn’t good enough when really, it is about his character not anything I am lacking. Thank you.

"Everything happens for a reason" and I address everything of this incredible video (this is not a coincidence for me, I'm "surviving" a ghosting in one of the worst timings of my life with anxiety) but...still hurts. You can know all of this and still feeling hurt because this was out of your control and obviously, that person decided that you don't exist. That hurts in your ego, in your heart and in your mind because we all deserve a response but a no response is a response. We exist and we matter. I read something today "the ghosting: that horror story of someone else's actions that talk more about them than ourselves". That hits hard. Bottom line: the closure we give to ourselves is for ourselves, not for the "ghost" because they've already decided their "closure" (running away like cowards most of the time). Ghosting is a decision made by them and moving forward is a decision made by us.

This video is BRILLIANT. I am 72 and never encountered someone who admitted they had been evaluated as having codependency rescuer tendencies. I am taking care of my spouse who has Parkinsons and Alzheimers. This guy had cared for his mother with similar issues for 10 years. He said he would support me and advise me through my caregiving journey. True to his word, he called EVERY DAY to see how I was doing, although we mostly talked about him.I thought we became friends over 4 years. Then he met someone he was attracted to. I met her and thought she was very immature, self-centered, and on the rebound from a divorce and seeking a new partner to take care of her. When I told my friend this BECAUSE HE ASKED, he flew into a rage and screamed terrible things at me. He even said that during our 4 years of phone calls he had gathered a ton of information he could throw back at me if I wanted (a threat that destroyed all trust). Then I was ghosted. In my 72 years, this had never happened. I've been processing the fact that this guy goes around rescuing people to feed his identity as a good person, but if you cross him, he drops you without another word. And he knows I am elderly and all alone. But I realized he never cared, that a codependent person in a sense uses their "victim" for self-worth and a sense of control (always giving me instructions for care, as an example). The bottomline is that after daily calls for 4 years, he flew into a rage, screamed horrible epithets at me and then ghosted me. Wow. I never knew such people existed. Oh, one final point. I could not see what this guy saw in this dysfunctional young woman. But I was seeing him as a normal balanced person. When I look at him as a codependent rescuer, his attraction is obvious. She is his next victim/project with "fringe benefits"!!!!

I grew up with severe emotional neglect and abuse and, no matter how much you think you understand your reactions, it is so hard to let go when you think you may have a potential real connection with someone. It's so hard to open yourself up even a little, and then to be let down is so very painful.

I’m only halfway through, and this is giving me immense amounts of closure. I was set to get married to someone last year, I had moved to North Carolina to live with him and his family. On a trip to New York to visit my family a month in, there were things that went down that I brought up to him that I was not OK with. After I expressed this, he went quiet for four days, then sent me one sentence to break up with me. I had to go back down and take my stuff out of our storage unit, and rent my own truck to come back by myself. He wouldn’t even see me. We dated for two years. It was absolutely brutal.

100% agree family estrangement is a lot harder and more painful at least in my individualexperience..... I've been going through a family estrangement for over 6 months the waves of the feeling come and go one minute I feel like I'm over it in the next minute not having the closure and wondering why comes up again not to say my problems or any worse than anyone else's I know everyone's problems are worse to themselves and cannot be measured but being someone who is adopted as a baby instantly has abandonment issues tied to it also being a failure to thrive baby not being picked up by my mother for the first two weeks of my life imbeds even deeper wounding in the subconscious I started finding my biological family over the last few years and my father's side was very warm and welcoming... unfortunately he had died before I could find out who he was.... we would actually talk quite a bit and then things taper off like they usually do but we would still communicate if I sent a message it was read it may not have been replied to that day but within a few days it was... recently one of the family members was messaging me in the summer saying they found some more photos of my father and when they got a chance they would send them to me, I was very grateful ...then I didn't hear anything for a couple months and sent a message just checking on the person saying hey hope you're well how you doing and still to this day they haven't even read the message and my cousins have stopped communicating with me as well it brings up so much confusion self gaslighting paranoia of what happened, why, I'm a good person I have a big heart I don't understand this everything was good before but now all the sudden no contact. I also believe that when this sort of thing happens it is a sign of a lack of Integrity in some people and also common decency it's a common courtesy to at least read a message and if you are an honest person, authentic, and truly embody integrity even if you had some ill feelings toward that person it's better to let them know than to leave them hanging I would rather know than not know... and I have to do my best to stay in understanding to not villainize those people based on my emotional perceptions and child trauma wounding.... it doesn't mean I condone or consent to the behavior but it is the first way of me being able to take my power back. Also due to the failure to thrive as an infant it comes with a form throughout your life of attachment to people so I'm constantly having to work and go to counseling and have my whole life to work through these issues. So I'm grateful for any videos like this that go in depth of certain aspects of struggles and hurt we go through. I'm hoping down the road I can let this go and finally find some confidence in my life that I've always lacked of being okay with people who in a sense reject me and having enough self-worth that it just for the most part rolls off my back but I'm not there yet still have tons of work to do. I also have an issue comparing myself to the way other people are and always wondering how do people not care what other people think of them how do people not take it as hard when they're rejected etc? I still have love for that family I don't think I ever could not it's just I have to nurture myself more and find a way to be okay with not knowing. To anyone who's struggling especially with ghosting right now my heart goes out to you I don't know you personally but I know the experience and I like reading all the comments here of everyone coming together and supporting each other I appreciate this channel I just came across and everyone here who's contributing and sharing experiences and supporting each other.🙏

I've literally just had this experience by someone I recently started dating... it was developing into a relationship. He showed up, we went on dates, his communication was consistent and affectionate... then BAM... very late last night, I checked my phone... he's gone, blocked me on absolutely everything. I have absolutely NO IDEA why this happened... I do have an abusive childhood, breakdown in previous marriage BUT I've had decades of therapy to help me. I have done everything in my power to get myself straight, making myself feel better and yet this has happened. I'll get over it but the pain right now is excruciating. We agreed to take things slow and steady so I thought things were good. Just be an adult and tell me that you're not interested in me rather than being a coward and just disappearing. I'm glad that videos like this exist because I want to heal from this.

This is absolutely what I needed to hear! Long story short, I had a long distance relationship with a guy who I reconnected with. We were friends since 17, went our seperate ways and did our own thing. We came back in 2022 and now we’re 30. We have been talking for 9 months in 2022 and were planning to meet up in person and take the relationship further. Like Deborah’s story, we butted heads and had an argument (it wasn’t my proudest moment and I don’t agree with how I spoke to him) however it wasn’t anything so serious we couldn’t amend it either. We did come to a place where we cooled down, apologised and made up. He asked for some space to think about why we argued and clear his mind. His last words were “I’ll spoil you when I come back”. He didn’t give me a timeline as he said he wasn’t sure how long it may take him. Having faith in his words, I simply said it’s okay and take your time. He’s not done anything to break my trust till this point. So, trusting him I waited. One week turned into 3 months of silence. I did reach out via messages, email, contacting his sister and there was no response. Yes, I saw his social media that he’d been partying and had gone on a date with someone else. I was so confused and never thought that about him ever. We had been friends and I’ve never thought bad of him. It hurt me because we had discussed HOW we would solve our conflicts and communicate when it was hard or if we argue. The rubber finally hit the road and I was now able to see another side of him I never thought I would ever see. I believe that true character is revealed not when things go well but it’s when things go unwell. I do believe that I have dodged a bullet and this is in fact a BIG RED FLAG and dangerous to be around. Despite the pain and hurt, I still bought him a Christmas present and apologised for how I spoke to him and understand how it’s hurt him but I drew the line in the sand and said goodbye. It hurt a lot, yes and I’m still recovering from it. But I’ve come to the realisation that I can’t build a life with someone like that and I deserve to be treated better. I still love him in my heart but know it’s okay and best to not be with him. He’s been wounded and bleeding a lot (don’t think he realises this) and thus his behaviour. I’m not saying it’s acceptable but I’m saying I understand that hurting people hurt people. For anyone reading this, I hope this message blesses you. Choose to reposed in love to others but most importantly to yourself. Thank you for the message Matthew, it has been really helpful and a blessing to myself and many others.

This is the worst with a small argument. I had the same thing. I felt I was expressing myself etc. Being authentic and he took some things the wrong way I apologized and got ghosted. I continued to apologize etc. I thought he was my friend, one year later I still have been ruminating. The thing is when we come from a place of honest remorse as a woman especially when what we said did or texted was not even extreem, and the guy wont forgive and he ghosts, I think that's manipulative to allow a woman to care for him, he knows she is still caring and messaging and sending him energy and yet he chooses to ignore. Matthew's discussion was perfect because us people with sweet hearts do not deserve such callousness.

Raising children alone and fighting with the negativity in my head became unbearable. I masked with exercise, a smile, and setting goals but never facing the real issue of my ego. Holding on to a husband, father who could treat us so bad and dismiss us. It took years of my life thinking about-such a waste of time. Like his opinion mattered!

This is amazing, Matt, I just went through this with a woman I did everything for, I have been a single dad raising a son and not dating, when I met this woman we both thought we had found in each other, a would mate. She began her antics by ghosting, and then all types of other drama started including “her boss hitting on her at a Christmas party where they were drunk”. I lived for here, even gave her money because she was between jobs. I was never so violated as a person in my 61 years. Sad that there are uncaring people out there that abuse good decent people and then make us feel like we are the problem. She always claimed she didn’t have the “bandwidth” for drama yet all she ever did was created it.

Damn, I've so much needed this today. I'm dealing with being ghosted, and after this... I actually felt a lot better. Thank You!

They aren’t reaching out so they won’t even notice and they dont care.

Matthew, You are 100% right about everything you've said. I really appreciate hearing it, as a great reminder of how we all REALLY do CHOOSE to be in denial of what's really going on and waste precious time that we cannot get back. Thank you for speaking the truth and to anyone reading this, please know IT IS THE TRUTH!!! Yes, it's a bummer, but you've got to change your mindset to see it or you're just gonna continue stumbling around in the dark looking for a flashlight when it's right in your hand. Listen to his video again if you need to, but please, please believe him! He cares enough to tell you the truth and that's someone who REALLY, REALLY loves you! Thank you MH! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Kristie

This was great advice. I used to need that closure Matt speaks of. I'd fill in the blanks of what I didn't know and obsess over what happened, why, how, etc. But I've learned (recently) to just close the door on what happened and not look back. It makes a huge difference to do that. To realize that the men who a) broke up with me and b) ghosted me were not worthy of me, my time, my love and energy and I just move on. This is some of the best self care I can do.
