As much as I do not want to admit I've been out of high school for 10 years, it's also nice to reflect on my life. I especially like to reflect on the parts of my life that were not-so-great, so I can see how much I've grown. High school was not good for me.…
Ghosting (verb): The act of suddenly ceasing all communication with someone the subject is dating, but no longer wishes to date.
