    Ep. 55 - Ghosting: A Millennial's Nightmare

    "Ghosting" might be a new term, but it's no new experience for those on the dating scene. Even before the rise of technology, smartphones, and dating apps, the anxiety of being left without an answer or closure - waiting for the phone call, the letter, even waiting at the actual location, all for a no show - is never easy. Let's be real: Being ghosted sucks. But as we dig deeper, what if the lack of reply we want so badly could be in our favor? Buckle up as the multi-gen duo dissects the 21st century idea of "Ghosting", what it looks like, how it feels, and how to move forward. -SHOW NOTES- Moral Tea LinkTree:⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/moralteapodcast⁠⁠"TISSUE" a novel by Renee Leonard Kennedy: https://www.reneeleonardkennedy.com/b..."ROOKIE CHILD" - A Blog by Anna Gray: ⁠⁠https://annagraysmithphoto.substack.com/
