Re: What is rustling your jimmies right now?

I think my friend might be trying to ghost me into unfriending them because they don't want to actually do the unfriending themselves. They've been very distant and unwilling to talk much lately. Should I take the bait and just do it? It'd complete the abandonment trifecta that has been this past month or two, after all.

Is unfriending really necessary? You could just let him drift away. Don't reach out, don't chase him or try to initiate conversation. Only respond if he reaches out first, and only if you want to. Put exactly as much time and effort into the relationship as he's doing.

And go out and make new friends.

I guess it depends. Have they struggled with mental illness previously or been having a difficult time in their own life that might have them isolate themselves?

No. People can get busy from time to time, and while I know nothing of your relationship with this person, there'a absolutely no reason to end to a relationship just just because you think they might be ghosting you. Leave it be.

Maybe it's because I'm clueless about a lot of social media, but I don't understand why unfriending someone is necessary unless you actually want to cut them out of your life. I agree with the anon about not badgering them or putting in a lot of effort, but there's no reason not to leave the door open.
