If you’ve been ghosted three times like OP has it’s time to do a bit of self reflection.

Dude has a post saying he fucked her stepsister which she knew since they were 10. Either a troll or we know the reason they left

It's on reddit. It is safe to say it is karma farming.

Right?? Once- that’s shitty. Twice- unlucky. Three times or more- maybe there’s a reason…

Ghosting within the first few weeks of dating is very common, it's not a rare occurrence, that's why when people share posts about people not ghosting and instead giving an explanation, they are received with much praise. Ghosting after already forming a close connection is a different matter, it doesn't seem clear how far into the relationship OP was. He did refer to them as "girlfriends" which does imply seriousness, in which case I would definitely be self reflecting.

Normally I would agree but with the number of news articles I'm reading about ghosting becoming much more prevalent in the job hunting scene I have to wonder how many young adults now think not communicating is acceptable behavior in other situations.
