Into the unlock-ended concerns, thematic study was utilized to help you password the information and knowledge (Braun Clarke, 2006)
Respondents were asked whether they had been on the receiving end of ghosting (n = 279; 85% of the total sample; npeople = 172 (61.6%)). These respondents received open-ended follow-up questions in which they were invited to describe their most recent ghosting experience and what it did to them in their own words. They further provided information on why they thought the other person ghosted them, what made the ghosting experience painful, and which emotions they felt after being ghosted. In total, 217 respondents described their ghosting experience, yet 58 respondents indicated they preferred to keep this information to themselves and were redirected to the next set of questions in which they provided more information on being a ghoster (see below).
Second, respondents were also asked whether they had ghosted another person themselves (n = 173; 63% of the total sample; n females = 119 (69%)).
