“Hindi lang sa isang romantic relationship ang #ghosting, it also happens to friendships that just drifted without proper reasons” tweeted Barney Stinson.

#Ghosting is the worst thing you could do to someone. It leaves the other person in a sad, pitiful state and a feeling of not being enough; they constantly wonder “what did I do wrong?”, It’s a state of not knowing, not being able to have closure,” tweeted doncamote.

“Ghosting is bad and maybe one of the saddest feelings you can cause to a person. It actually questions one’s self-worth that can lead to fear and doubt of taking a risk in love. So stop #ghosting someone. Be true to your intentions,” tweeted Elaii.

These are just some of the sentiments online by some netizens.
