Ghosting is more likely to come from people high in Dark Triad traits, such as narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. And other facts about ghosting you might not know.
. Narcissism refers to an inflated sense of self, a grandiosity that tends to correspond with using others for one's own social status or other benefits. Machiavellianism is a tendency towards manipulation, self-serving calculated social strategies, and game-playing. Psychopathy reflects a lack of impulse control and meanness .
Recent research by Dr. Peter Jonason and colleagues suggests that the acceptability of ghosting is linked to Dark Triad traits. In a study that included 341 participants, people with higher levels of the Dark Triad traits were more apt to find ghosting acceptable. Men in particular, for narcissism, saw ghosting as a reasonable way to end a short-term relationship.
This is theoretically consistent with what it means to have higher Dark Triad traits: We would expect people with higher Dark Triad traits to be more self-interested, less empathetic, and undisturbed by the prospect of hurting someone else's feelings. This fits with ghosting.
Regardless of how the ghostee might interpret the ghoster's behavior, in general, ghosting has adverse effects on the ghosted person, and is associated with feelings of rejection,, and poorer mental health . Despite this, sometimes people ghost because they want to protect the other person from the uncomfortable"I don't like you" kind of break-up conversation that would have to ensue if a break-up were more direct . This fifth reason for ghosting is not of callous intent.
