Have you ever ended things then speedily cut them off completely? You could be guilty of mic dropping, the blunt alternative to ghosting that’s growing in popularity on dating apps.
– a trend that has come up time and time again over the last year – without having to deal with the result.So, what does mic dropping actually entail?
While mic dropping may be easier than sitting down to have a conversation with someone, it still requires some work. Mic dropping doesn’t mean getting away scot-free with that break-up text – you still need to spell out why things aren’t working and send a message explaining this – you just don’t have to talk about it afterwards.Caspering
– the term coined by the sex and dating expert Alix Fox to describe a kind of ‘friendly ghosting’ where you drop someone a message to let them know things haven’t worked out. I guess it depends how far along on your dating journey you are. If you’ve been on a handful of dates and things aren’t that serious, mic dropping probably isn’t going to cause much harm.
Nah, it’s not as intense as it sounds. It’s just the act of sending a message and then cutting ties before the other person responds. For example, you could send something like, “Hey, thanks for a great time, but I’m afraid I don’t think things are going to work out,” before unmatching on Hinge or blocking their number. Simple.I don’t think so. Thanks for a great time – I just don’t think things are going to work out.
