> ghosting on your tinder date What does this mean? Apologies if it's something obvious I should know; I'm not cool anymore so this terminology escapes me. :)

  http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ghosting http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ghosting The practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication.

  The phrase refers to when you are in the early stages of a relationship with someone you met online and stop sending any communication to them without notifying them beforehand. The phrase is probably a bit hyperbolic here.

  "ghosting" just means ending all interaction without warning. not necessarily in the context of a relationship. one can ghost a job, a friend, or even someone selling things on craigslist. "He ghosted me after finding out I have kids."

    Ghosting can also be situational. For instance, you can ghost from a bar or party, which is essentially just disappearing without saying goodbye and trying to avoid anyone noticing you leaving. Also called an Irish Goodbye.

      FWIW in Spain is a French goodbye

        I've heard it as the Irish Goodbye as recently as the monologue of last week's Saturday Night Live with Saorise Ronan!
