Is abruptly terminating all communication okay?

Is "ghosting" perfectly acceptable??

No response is a response, right??

Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn’t. Just depends on the person and the circumstances of what happened between you. Imo

I said in my youth - "When your phone isn't ringing? That's me."

First, you must ask yourself - How does it make YOU feel to ghost the person. My guess is - at the start...it feels justified and darn good.

Later, consider how you feel now. You are the priority, imo.
Once you feel ok and clear...THEN, you can act in the way you would be glad about later...
meaning not reacting from such an emotional state...maybe the 'mean' ego coming out.

However, if this person is a 'bad' person...lying, cheating, messing with your head...just stay away.
I would ask myself: Do I want to be a Saint one day? That's a place to come from.
Or do I want to come from a place of, "I did the right thing for ME at the time."

Just ideas. Good luck with this.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

Yes, what you call “ghosting” is fine. Especially if the other person is toxic or dangerous, or if the other person may interpret your willingness to talk as a continued interest that you have in them.

I like the Paul Simon song, Fifty Ways To Leave Your Lover. “Just slip out the back Jack, make a new plan Stan, no need to be coy Roy, hop on the bus Gus, no need to discuss much, drop off the key Lee, and get yourself free.”

Lavendercranberry - I know it's rude to ghost people, but I do it anyway. I have a sibling who is schizophrenic and communicating with her always turns into her misinterpreting my text, then she calls up others and complains about me. I've gotten so fed up with the lying and manipulation, I often just don't respond to her at all. Then I get sarcasm back. There are going to be people that sometimes prompt one to ignore them. It is what it is.
