Why do men ghost after seeming interested?
Why Do Men — Understanding what men do.
See if this sounds familiar…
The date went exceptionally well. The conversation flowed effortlessly, he laughed at your jokes, leaned in close, and texted you before you even made it home to say how much he enjoyed the evening. And then... complete silence. Days pass without a word, leaving you staring at your phone, asking yourself why did he ghost after a great date? or why do men suddenly stop texting? when everything seemed so promising.
