“Ghosting” is a term that has come to existence in 2014. The term is in reference to someone disappearing off, erasing, or blocking himself or herself from someone ells in which they are in a friendship and or relationship with. This term and article fit my topic of technology in today’s age effecting relationships of all ages. I see this as a perfect example of the disconnect that has formed in todays world because of social media and technology. The fact that it has become so easy for us to ignore and simply ‘block’ with the tap of a finger has created coldness in us. The fact is that because of these new modes of communication, we are no long to dependent of human interaction as much, thus we are loosing that intimacy that is accosted with it, making us socially awkward and in some cases unable to communicate effectively with others as well as we might have been able to in the past.
