What Does Soft Ghosting Look Like?
In simpler words, soft ghosting is where conversation gradually drops down and suddenly the person who used to be loud on your social media drops down to just viewing and liking your posts. Soft ghosting can be just as painful as full ghosting.

How do you know if someone is soft ghosting you?

Here's what you can do to know if you are being soft ghosted. Ask them a direct question that requires them to respond. If they reply with a genuine answer and the conversation picks up, then it's all good. But in case they ignore the conversation, that should be your cue to leave it at that.

What is soft ghosting?

Soft ghosting refers to someone 'liking' your last message or latest comment on their post on platforms like Facebook and Instagram where it's possible to react to an interaction, but not actually replying and continuing the conversation. So, although they're not ignoring you, they're also offering no genuine response.
