The Situation

"She said she had a great time then completely disappeared"

The Brutal Truth

His behavior reveals he wasn't serious or trustworthy. Saying she had a great time was just a polite cover for his lack of interest. Ghosting is a clear sign of emotional unavailability or avoidance, not a reflection of your worth.

❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)

An anxious person might bombard her with texts asking why she disappeared, trying to seek validation and explanation. This is wrong because it can come off as needy and desperate, which only reinforces his decision to ghost.

đź’­ Something to Reflect On

What part of you believes that you need to chase after someone who disappears, and how does that impact your self-worth?

✨ What To Do Next

Every situation has nuance. What you see here is a general pattern, but your specific circumstances matter.

That's why personalized coaching is so powerful—we can dive deep into your story, understand the context, and create a plan that actually fits your life.
