when you take a shit so massive and with such velocity behind it that it forces itself to "disappear" down the toilet tube upon hitting the water, prompting a confused state when you look into the bowl and find it nowhere to be seen
Thomas knew he had a fiber-rich diet and felt it come out but, upon further investigation, didn't see what happened to the log he had produced. He was clearly a victim of his own ghosting.

Ghosting is a verb that requires no action. A noun for nobodys. And an adjective most suitable when describing a person that is rude and lacking courage.

When one is ghosting another they abruptly and unexpectedly stop communication. The ghoster may have legitimate reason to stop communication but lacks the courage to share with the ghostee what those reasons are. And probably the more common cause of ghosting within the dating community the ghoster and "roommate" were able to smooth things over. Ghoster figures the cost of good laughs, good sex was far less than the cost of child support. Ghoster does not wish to be honest & forthcoming concerning details of ones life. The ghoster can show interest, seem infatuated and just one day later show no interest, no reply to text/calls, selecting ignore so notifications will not be received from said ghostee. From a ghostees perspective there are now questions unanswered and in a quest to find answers ghostee will send at least one more message just in case there had been no ghosting at all. Surely ghosters phone had accidentally been submerged in water during last weekends fishing excursions. And surely ghoster was able to replace it by now. When still no reply is received ghostee sends a passive "take care" message and excepts the relationship is dead!!

ghoster should be treated as if they no longer exist if they try and spark up conversation or relationship in the future.

When someone you (consistently) talk to suddenly stops responding without notice. Their goal is to end the relationship without hurting the other's feelings but it ends up creating more confusion and frustration. Often utilized by immature jerks.

Something that immature little boys do to girls when they're too cowardly to say they're no longer interested. This results in the boy feeling great he got away so easily without any "drama" but leaves the girl with an inordinate amount of pain, anxiety and over-thinking about what the hell she did/said/texted wrong.

A phenomena made popular in modern society with the more disposable forms of communication such as text messages thereby removing the ghosted from any culpability or having to deal with a real face to face response.

The act of suddenly cutting ties with someone you date.

The term carries a very negative connotation. On Psychology portals, ghosting will be labeled as a form of psychological abuse. Thus, some people may not see fairness in using the term to refer to people who have vanished after a date or two, or after a little time chatting over Facebook or Tinder.

They'd rather limit it to people who used it as a coward manner of breaking-up a months long relationship or friendship, specially if a bond was explicitly set to exist, and expectations could be deemed as legitimate and rational.

While it can be that the ghoster simply doesn't care enough about the ghostee to end things right, it can also happen as a product of unhealthy relationship dynamics, such as it being almost impossible for a non-assertive anxious-avoidant type to properly break-up with a lovebombing anxious-attached one.
1: That girl said I ghosted her, but we had literally talked for one night. Ghosting? It's not like I owed her anything.

2: My ex vanished after five months. The ghosting was really traumatizing. We were very close together and he knew how much I relied on him.
