So me and my friend were talking, she finally slept with yhe guy she has been seeing, they had plans to go on a date this past weekend but he flaked on her and basically has given her the excuse kf being busy with work. Well today he was suppose to make up for it by meeting for lunch,he never followed through. She has deleted him off of aocial media and blocked his number to keep herself from contacting him.

The guy by all accounts seemed into her, and could be very well busy but his actions...

I think my friend should call him out on his shady behavior. Let him know how she feels. Fuck ignoring, guys get off wayyyy too easily with that sexing and ghosting bullshit and shoulld have their shit stuffed in their face and forced to acknowledge their behavior.

But she thinks he doesnt deserve to know how she feels so she rather ignore him and excommunicate him from her life.

To be ignored or given the finger? Which is worst to receive?

Oka, well DXP is f*cking up my quotes so...

"So me and my friend were talking, she finally slept with yhe guy.....

...I think my friend should call him out on his shady behavior. Let him know how she feels. Fuck ignoring, guys get off wayyyy too easily with that sexing and ghosting bullshit and shoulld have their shit stuffed in their face and forced to acknowledge their behavior."

^^^I'm sure he is fully aware of his behaviour. He simply doesn't care. She does. Perhaps more than she should given the nature of their interaction. There lies the issue.

As for the question in the OP, she's making the best call imo. All she would be doing is stroking his ego because someone like that isn't gonna stop and think "wow...I was really low...." it's gonna be more "geeze, I guess I gotta block this one too." either because 1) he wasn't interested and now she's dragging this on instead of simply seeing it for what it was or 2) he truly was busy and she lost her sh*t prematurely, especially since they're not in a relationship. Simply had a few dates and sex.

What I would actually do and what I think is logical are totally different.

Guy's that just vanish make me feel so vulnerable. Most of the time I'm not even expecting anything but when they leave without warning or an explanation I start to get anxious. I'll text them demanding an answer which most of the time I never get. I lose my dignity in the process.

What is think is logical and more respected is to just move forward. Instead of rationalizing what happened I would ignore every single thought I had. I wouldn't even seem like that phased me at all. To have sex with someone and completely stop contact is inconsiderate and wrong.

So, I think that she should just beat on and give him the finger.
