There may be a few scenarios where the use of this cruel method of rejection is debatable. However, one “ghost worthy” scenario is in abusive relationships- relationships where you have good reason to fear for your personal safety.

If you think your safety may be in jeopardy by simply expressing your desire to end it, opting to ghost is not only acceptable but a smart move. That, and alerting the appropriate authorities in extreme situations.

“If the relationship is abusive and you see a serious threat to yourself or those around you, by all means, cut off all communications and seek help immediately.” -Hiba Siddiqui

Though the threat of immediate physical harm is somewhat reduced if the engagement is completely online but ghosting will still be blameless if say, your problematic counterpart persists in sending you inappropriate content or is otherwise communicating in all the ways that make you uneasy or fearful of what might happen the longer you continue to indulge.

“If someone seems aggressive in any way, be it through pressuring you, being inappropriately argumentative, or is hot-tempered and easily triggered, retreat and delete.” –Michelle Baxo, personal coach and dating expert.
