And if people don't see how wrong that is, they are truly warped!

It's among the lines of how it seems so acceptable to ghost people these days. The behavior is as old as the human species itself, though the word wasn't used until the last 5 years? 10? We used to say "blow someone off".

About gaslighting people, that’s so true! If the same thing happened to the gaslighter, they’d be upset with anyone who dated to blame them for their problems, lol!

A lot of people ate hypocrites it seems like. Before long no one will be talking to each other maybe. People will just sit there & be on their phone which is a scary thought!
