I'm ghosting my longtime friend out of spite and kind of enjoying watching him try to figure out why.
How do you think your friend is reacting to you ghosting him?
I'm sure he has anxiety attacks when I'm not around.
You shouldn't play around with your friend's anxiety by ghosting him because it's inconsiderate of his feelings. Leave your friend alone and get on with your life.
Yeah he deserves it for stealing my girl when I was going out of town for a bit.
It sounds like he hasn't been a good friend. Regardless, you should talk to him instead of ghosting him.
