My dad even met someone on Eharmony last year and is still dating her to this day. Like I mentioned before, they're in a relationship with you.

An easy and non-risky signal to give is the eyebrow flash. A woman could tell her friend about what she thought of the latest episode of a show they both follow, or share her views on a story she heard on a the radio, or give a report on a conflict that's happening between her relatives.

How to Talk to a Girl Online: Proven Openers - How would you know I go for the jock guy, you don't know who I am.

Don't act like you haven't considered ghosting on someone before. It's seriously so rude and you've probably been tempted to do it, if it's not already your preferred method of ending things. It's so prevalent in our dating culture that we sometimes prepare for it in how we choose to date. Ghosting, if you don't already know, means that you just disappear stop responding to texts, phone calls, etc. It is disrespectful and it really instead of just having a conversation like a goddamn adult. So what are some ways you can end things besides ghosting? With that being said, let's talk about what you can do the next time you are considering. Recognize That You Have A Right To Be Uninterested Ghosting a perfectly nice person when you're simply not feeling it is extremely rude. And lots of people ghost merely because they feel awkward talking to the person; it's especially tempting to ghost when you've met the person off of a dating app since the virtual beginnings make it seem like less of a big deal. While there are many uncool reasons why ghosting is a thing, we can't ignore the ways women have been conditioned to deal with unwanted advances from men when we talk about why we choose to ghost. For one, women are already socialized to be people-pleasers in general, and we are especially taught to be people-pleasers when it comes to men. We can't even walk down the street without some strange dude asking us to smile for him. For years, messages teach us that we must be validated by male attention and we mustn't hurt their masculinity. This is our terrifying reality. These sorts of incidents understandably make us feel that in hopes that we won't be painted as a bitch, or worse, killed. If you only fear ending things with the dude you've been casually seeing because you don't want to hurt his feelings, then I encourage you to recognize that you have a right to be uninterested and unapologetic about it. Plus, if he is a nice person, it's really unfair to leave him hanging and wondering what went wrong. Own your feelings and state them. It actually feels really good, as much as you may dread it. You don't owe any explanation ever. Text messages are a blessing for those of us who have paralyzing fears of confrontation. You can just type up a quick message in a matter of seconds and never even have to read the response. No face to face meeting, no awkwardly avoiding eye contact, no getting yelled at, no changing your tune because you start feeling bad. But do we take advantage of this in order to avoid ghosting? Perhaps we don't know the words to use, or find that even communicating a rejection over text is too awkward. If the issue is general incompatibility, as opposed to threatening creeper vibes, then the person is deserving of our respect and has the right to know what went wrong. But here's how you can fix it. So I don't think it would be right to go on another date. You can, of course, alter this wording to be more reflective of your tone, but it's a pretty good template if you're at a loss. Another young woman that Krupnick spoke to actually has her friends write the breaking-off text for her since she knows she will talk herself out of it. Once sent, she'll avoid looking at her phone for hours because the message makes her so uneasy, but at least the message is sent and she has done the most respectful thing that she can in the situation. Ask To Hang Out As Friends Only If You Want To Be Friends Despite what the patriarchy tries to tell us, a woman's friendship I'm talking about relations between a man and woman in this instance should not be considered ~the worst possible thing in the world~. I will not try to downplay that heartbreak. Women are often made to feel that they are awful, villainous deceivers for genuinely wanting to initiate a friendship. This makes it feel impossible to turn people down romantically while opening a path to friendship. Now, often times, you'll feel the desire to ghost someone because you just don't want anything to do with them. But once in a while, you totally like the person but can't imagine anything romantic happening. Sometimes that's just the way it goes. It can be a real bummer because you want to keep socializing, only without the pressures of courtship. And that's really messed up to do to a person that you would consider a friend. So why not ask them if you can just be friends? Of course, the other person has every right in the world to request space to get over their feelings, or to express that a friendship would make them kind of uncomfortable. But at least you tried, you know? Why ghost someone who could turn out to be a great friend? Now you know that you want nothing to do with them. Want more of Bustle's Sex and Relationships coverage?
