What's your "old person" trait? (feddit.ch)

My old person trait is that I think 'ghosting' is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

I disagree that you owe a face to face conversation. No one should forced to go meet someone if they don't feel like it.

In the context of dating, if you get ghosted, consider that the person is not interested in you after all - and just move on. No big deal.

It'd of course be nice to be rejected directly, and i much prefer it over getting ghosted, but I'm a big boy. I can handle not having things my preferred way all the time.
