SBS Filipino's love down under segment talks about 'ghosting' which became a popular topic recently in the Philippines.
Ghosting is a common dating problem and it happens when someone stops answering your texts or calls without an explanation. Ghosting is in a nutshell, a rejection, only without the finality.
What's difficult about ghosting is that when one do not get the closure, even something casual can feel so much worse. Not having an answer prevents a person from moving forward making them stir in that confusion for long.
Here are some obvious signs that you should not ignore.

The person becomes emotionally unavailable
If they suddenly become distant and do not engage in conversation, or cannot keep an eye contact during your dates, then it's a sign they're about to ghost you.
Bottom line is, there is no logical or acceptable excuse for ghosting. Every person is worthy of respect and love.
