Let’s face it: People ghost and it sucks.
For the most part, the act of ghosting says everything about the person ghosting and not the ghosted.
Unless youre a literal relationship expert, you may not be entirely sure what to say.
If thats the case, here are text message ideas to send after getting ghosted.
How To Know Youve Been Ghosted
Of course, you dont want to always jump to conclusions.
That said, if you think youre getting ghosted, you probably are.
Maybe give them a week before sending the final text.
Should YouReallyText Them After They Ghosted You?
Whether you should text them after they ghosted you depends on what your true intention of texting them is.

Is it to get a response?
To get the last word?
That said, there are a few occasions when sending a text after being ghosted might be appropriate.
If they did, they would have already texted you.
Besides, even if they did, why would you want to reward bad behavior by taking them back?
Its important to remember the ghost may continue to ghost and not respond.
If youretrulyokay with that, below are 14 texts to send to someone who ghosted you.
Stay cool, calm, and collected
Your hurt feelings are 100 percent valid.
Focus on being the bigger person.
Just because they didnt treat you with respect doesnt mean you cant set a good example.
Skip the guilt-tripping
It wont do anything but make you feel worse.
Keep it to asingletext
No doubling texting if they dont respond.

Be empowered and self-respecting
You want the power in your hands, not the ghost.
Dont say something like I guess I just dont matter anymore… No.
Your worth isnt dictated by their inability to talk about something uncomfortable.
Hang out with your friends or watch your favorite show.
If They Dont Respond…
Even if you send the absoluteperfecttext, you still may not get an actual response.
(Sometimes, no response is a response.)
Thats okay, though.
Remind yourself that you deserve better than someone who cant put in the effort to communicate with you.
Dont feel embarrassed that you reached out.
You were honest in a way they couldnt be and you should be proud.
If TheyDoRespond…
However, if they do give you a response, evaluate the content of the message.
If they still arent being fully honest, dont respond.
In the end, you may realize they arent worth the effort after all.
