Ghosting is a relationship term that describes the act of suddenly breaking up with someone by stopping all communication. Usually, the person ghosting doesn't give the other person any sign that they're leaving and often blocks them to prevent any contact.

Ghosting can happen in friendships or even family relationships, but it's most commonly associated with romantic relationships. Either way, it's heartbreaking and humiliating.
