Oh lord, if you are ghosting your partner, guess what? Not much of a relationship is it?
You've broken the trust, failed the commitment, and aren't being responsible.
So~ Not much reason for the other person to be attached to you any longer. You have no control.

If someone is ghosting you but making you feel like the relationship is still there, they are being manipulative.
A relationship isn't about convenience of one side or the other, it is a mutual responsibility.
It's not just there one day, gone, and then back again.

If you're being ghosted during an actual relationship, you might as well consider it over. Otherwise the other person is keeping you on puppet strings, upset and left holding on, while they do as they wish, perhaps even involving themselves with others as you linger.

I've heard the story before, and I'm sure I'll hear it many times more.
A relationship is not a contractual obligation, it's not based on legal definition, it's based on trust, and trust goes both ways.
If someone leaves you hanging like that? End it, protect yourself.

You matter.
In a relationship, they are important and you are important. Don't be stepped on, don't make it a thing where you aim to please them and not the other way around.
You should be in it for what it brings both of you, not just one side.
It's a balancing act.

And if your partner doesn't allow you to end it? Well, that's not how relationships work. If they can't be civil and discuss issues together with you, I think that says a lot about who they are and whether they are worthy of your care and attention.

I have spoken to far too many victims, some still in said relationships, who feel that things are their fault, that they are the cause of another's behavior.
No, an abusive person is an abusive person. That's never your fault.
Never.
And you must protect yourself.

If you are in a relationship with someone who ghosts you, or really, treats you in any way that isn't 100% respectable, I implore you to always have trusted friends up-to-date with how you are doing and what's going on.
Make sure someone always knows your situation.

Don't ever think these things are petty or insignificant. We are talking about your feelings, your well-being, and your health.
Talk to friends you can rely on, or family. Don't try to manage it by yourself. Sometimes an outside eye provides a telling point of view.

Share what you feel, inside and out. Good friends will look out for you and advise you, give you support and help you decide what's right for you.
Sorry for the thread, it's just been a theme lately and I find it so upsetting.
I know the sweetest people in the world. Be safe.
