“…Moreover, recipients of ghosting experience more distress, uncertainty, and other negative emotions than when the relationship is ended more directly (Koessler et al, 2019a;LeFebvre & Fan, 2020;Pancani et al, 2021). Additional research has more broadly explored individuals' motivations to use ghosting (Koessler et al, 2019a(Koessler et al, , 2019bLeFebvre et al, 2019Manning et al, 2019;Timmermans et al, 2020) and various correlates of ghosting behaviors (Freedman et al, 2019;Navarro et al, 2020Navarro et al, , 2021Powell et al, 2021). Most of this research, though, has predominately compared individuals-mostly emerging adults-who have ghosted to those who have not, and those who have been ghosted to those who have not; less research has accounted for the fact that some individuals may have both ghosted and been ghosted (e.g., LeFebvre et al, 2019;Manning et al, 2019;Powell et al, 2021).…”
