How common is ghosting?

If we haven’t experienced it ourselves, chances are we can all think of someone who’s been ghosted. “Unfortunately ghosting is an inevitable part of the dating journey, with 80% of British daters having previously experienced this,” says Eva Gallagher, Resident Dating Expert at Plenty of Fish.

“Despite its prevalence in modern dating, ghosting is a top turn off for 43% of singles in the UK and at Plenty of Fish we strongly recommend against this as a method of ending a connection,” she adds.

Instead, Gallagher recommends kindly letting the other person know that you no longer want to communicate or hang out with them. “It’s ok if you don’t hit it off with your date, but show respect, instead of the silent treatment.”
