Most of us have been ghosted but how do you come back from it?
When you finally find someone you are starting to like and everything is going well. You text, you hang out - its all rosey.
Then one day, you never hear from them again. You've been ghosted hun.
It's a crap feeling and no-one likes it but thanks to this new dating app you'll never be ghosted again!
Well, you can avoid it!
In an attempt to stop ghosting, Badoo has launched a new reply feature which suggests responses for users who haven’t replied to their match.
However, we'll have to wait until the end of the year to use the apps newest feature.
Badoo’s in-house dating expert and psychologist, Claire Stott, believes the response suggestions will encourage users to be more responsible for their behaviour online and as a result, will reduce ‘ghosting’.
Stott said;
Not only does the feature intercept the 'ghosting' process by encouraging users to reply, it also prompts those who are actually interested in their match, to get the ball rolling and meet in real life. Ghosting has been going on forever, but apps have expanded the dating pool and created more opportunities for people to meet. Therefore the chances of being ghosted are higher. For anyone who finds themselves being ghosted, don’t assume that they stopped talking to you because you did something wrong. It’s a by-product of online dating rather than a reflection of you as a person.
