Some of the best romantic relationships start as friendships first. Other times, getting involved with a friend can go very wrong.

This woman believes she has done everything right. Yet, she was still left in the dust.

After getting out of an abusive relationship about four years ago, she has remained celibate ever since.

The woman wanted to wait until she felt comfortable with another man and ensure she would not get into another toxic relationship.

Then, she met a guy through a mutual friend. The woman immediately thought he was very kind and funny. Afterward, all three friends began hanging out a lot.

Eventually, the guy asked for her number and their conversations went from innocent and friendly to flirty.

“I started to let my guard down, and he was already aware of the situation I had been in,” the woman explained.

They would call and text constantly, which seriously boosted the woman’s self-esteem. Then, the guy eventually invited her over to his new place.

“I went and, after a few hours of talking and laughing, he kissed me,” the woman said. Soon after, things got intimate, and she felt herself falling for him.

It was a really romantic evening that ended with a walk to her car and a kiss goodbye. The following days were far from what the woman had hoped for, though.

The guy did not reach out to her the next morning, and they only saw each other again due to an accidental run-in. Apparently, he would not even look at the woman and acted extremely cold toward her.

The woman tried to be understanding and considered that he might have been having a bad day. But then, he sent her an odd text message a few hours later.

The guy started showering the woman with compliments– telling her she was amazing, lovely, delicate, and that he did not want her to feel used.

“He has not said a word to me since. I have seen him twice, and he completely ignores me,” the woman said.

Now, she is extremely hurt and does feel used. The woman never planned to sleep with him and understands if he is not looking for a relationship. But, what she does not understand is why the guy could not be honest.

“Why do people do this? How hard is it to make a call or write out a freaking, ‘I’m sorry, I’m not interested,’ text?” the woman asked.

Since the whole ordeal, the woman’s self-esteem has taken a significant blow.

Do you think the woman should have done something differently? Or is she just another victim of unnecessary ghosting?
