First, it's just one text that goes unanswered.
先是一条短信,TA没回。
Then, it's 10. Your calls go to voicemail and the silence grows deeper by the minute. You may start to worry: Could something have happened to your friend? What else could explain their sudden disappearance?
然后就变成了十条。你打去的电话没人接,时间一分分过去,沉默越来越深。这时你可能开始担忧了:是你的朋友出了什么意外吗?不然怎么会突然没了消息呢?
Eventually, a social media update or a mutual friend will give you the answer. Your former confidant is alive and well.
后来,社交媒体上出现了一条动态,或者你们的共同好友让你知道了答案:你从前的那位好朋友还活着,而且过得很好。
But they have just vanished from your life. They are ghosting you.
只是,他从你的生活中突然消失了。他对你玩了一回“神隐”。
Ghosting, which means cutting off all communication without offering an explanation, has only recently entered the popular lexicon. But it's a behavior likely as old as human interactions have existed.
“神隐”,意思是不做任何解释就切断所有联系。这个词最近刚流行起来。不过,“神隐”这种行为的历史可能和人类交往的历史一样悠久。
The term originated in the context of dating, but ghosting also occurs in friendships and is even becoming a noticeable trend in professional relationships.
