In which you swipe left to erase a relationship.
Nothing scares Arun Sharma. the 25-year-old MBa graduate has participated in high-altitude bike racing, trekked to Everest Base camp by him-self, jumped off an aeroplane at 15,000 feet and if all goes well, he’ll soon be diving with sharks in Australia. Yet, when it was time for him to tell his girlfriend that he’d found someone else, he suddenly developed cold feet. eventually he decided not to inform her at all. Since they’d met through a dating app, Sharma suddenly realised he could also end things equally conveniently. “We only met at coffee shops and chatted through tinder. I simply stopped taking her calls and deactivated my account. She was really into me, I didn’t want to break her heart,” says Sharma. Since then he has virtually ended or ‘ghosted’ nearly ten different women in less than a month. He believes he’s spared them heartache, humiliation and suffering by simply vanishing from their lives with no word or message—just like a ghost. “of course, I’ve also saved myself from countless emotional talks and pointless arguments. Ghosting is easier—for her and for me,” adds Sharma, handing out the names and numbers of the last three girls he ghosted.
