Ghosted
Significado: The past tense of ghosting — someone suddenly stopped all communication with you without explanation.
When you've been 'ghosted,' the person you were talking to or dating has completely vanished from your life — no texts, no calls, no social media interaction. It's the completed action of ghosting. Being ghosted is one of the most frustrating experiences in modern dating because you never get closure or an explanation. The word has become so common it can apply to any context — job applications, friendships, even businesses.
