Live Culture
I got ghosted for the first time this year. I went on a few dates with a guy and I was into it. And then I never heard from him again!
But Vermont is small and I knew I would see him again. So I practiced the perfect, confident head nod and half-smile to let him know that I was over it and he could never have me back.
It happened! I saw him! Except, instead, I was sitting in my car peeling and eating hardboiled eggs. I think the message was the same, though.
