    They should get LOST.  Period.

    I'll tell ya.  I looked it up in the Urban Legend dictionary.  

    It is when you want to ditch someone you've been dating and just kind of give them the slip with no explanation.

    I am sure that is how serial killers get started, doing that kind of rotten stuff to them.

    It usually references dating, but it can also be a friendship. It just means the person dropped contact and stopped responding to you, like you said, with no explanation or anything. In your life just fine one day, and then *poof* gone.

    Thanks for that addition.  This is a very important word, JA.  I am adopting it now and forever.

    I guess the non-confrontational and the cowards are ghosters.  It sucks to be the ghostee.  Unless, of course, the ghostee is a stalker.  In which case the ghoster had better be really, really good at ghosting.

    We have now explained it, and JA added a more thorough job of the definition.  Read it, it is worth knowing.  I know you will like it.  LOL This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at July 18, 2017 7:28 PM MDT

  • They should probably not show up at the "ghosters" house and boil said "ghosters"pet rabbit. Or maybe they should ;)

    They should not remain calm and frantically move toward the nearest exit.

    So, this was serious.  I am sorry.   This is the first I have heard anything about it.   How are you handling this?  Are you okay?

    Yes, thank you so much. We were married for 33 years, but he was 17 years older than me, and . He was a Criminal Attorney. ;O lol  I have severe ADHD so I dont have the capacity to dwell on his passing. I loved him with all my heart, but I just dont focus anything that much. Our son and his son live with me. My husband lives through them. Life goes on. I feel a song coming on. RUN!

    I totally understand how you feel.  My mom died and I lived with her for the last 23 years.  She is in every room of this house and I don't have this pain in my brain over it.  I feel okay and I do miss her of course.

    So, I get it. I'm glad you know how to cope and I know you miss him.
