Boyfriend and I are discussing this Which is WORSE? Someone you aren’t interested in keeps texting you. Is it worse to ghost them or respond dryly until they get the hint?

Don’t waste ur time or theirs. It’s the same emotional cost either way

Id be dry for a convo or two to give the hint and if they dont take it id be like hey im not interested pls stop hitting my line and if they continue bothering after that id ghost/block

Or why don’t you just be honest and just tell them how you truly feel? I feel like most people these days lack the ability to communicate and be honest.

Neither. Be blunt so you're not wasting their time. I don't get why people aren't direct anymore

I’m not trying to sound angry, insecure or anything but it always perplexes me how there are people that downvote polls. Like idk why someone gets offended by such a simple poll. Like what about this made you downvote it? I see this on so many normal posts on here. I want to study them.

Worse to dry text, but best to just tell them you’re not interested in them.

That’s what I do. I usually dry text for a little bit hoping they get the hint and then eventually resort to ghosting
