What to do if you’ve been ghosted

Blaine Anderson, who specilises in dating advice for men, addressed her 488k Instagram followers yesterday in a public service announcement about ghosting. 

Ghosting can happen in both real-life, and in virtual spaces, with 34% of responds telling the Thriving Center Psycology that they were ghosted before the first date. Similarly, Forbes reported that� 76% of respondents had either ghosted or been ghosted.�

Instead of wondering why she didnt respond assume the reason is because she didnt think you were on her level, Blaine (@datingbyblaine) explained. I know its harsh, but its often true. Pay her no mind and use this as fuel to uplevel yourself. Then, if you run into her down the road, she will see that it was actually her loss, not yours.

Blaine continued to point out a few obvious areas you could work on to really stick it to the ghost when she next comes around. Such improvements included a physical glow up, thriving at work and sharpening up your flirting game.

BOO!

Though Blaines logic seemed sound, her expert opinion divided her followers who ended up debating her statements in the comments. 

Totally. I couldnt agree more. There is no point in waiting for her to respond. Best to let them go and find someone who sees the value in you, someone wrote, to which someone else agreed and added, I agree, being honest with yourself is a fast way to a more satisfying life, especially in dating.

But not everyone fully understood, as another follower countered with: This is self-deprecating advice. Just assume that she has her own things going on. Nothing about being on her level or vice versa. Were all humans trying to do the best we can.

Someone else wrote: If you dont get a response, theyre not on your level. You have nothing to prove.
