I was ghosted by a potential date when I revealed I didn’t believe in astrology...lol. Her loss, my gain.

Again, the stars and moon have no bearing on you whatsoever!

Well she'd probably say they had a bearing on your relationship with her 😉 Confirmation bias being what it is and all ...

A neighbor lady (ironically married to a retired college professor) blurted out upon meeting my wife and I and asking our signs, that our relationship was doomed because our signs were incompatible. This was at a neighborhood party and said loudly enough that conversation stalled.

Today, 6 years later, the neighbor lady is dead and my wife and I are still very much together. So there.

Might as well read tea leaves!

Astrology is complete bullshit. You might be better off. If someone can believe in that crap they could believe in all kinds of crazy shit.

Don't worry. You didn't lose much. I was never understanding of how Nancy Reagan could believe in such nonsense. I've studied all the "isms" in my younger life and I can say none of us are important enough to be affected by the stars. The stars and planets simply do not care. 🙂

silly, eh? "what's your sign" is a common pickup line; it's odd when it turns out to be a dealbreaker.

but what's ghosted?

(i'm not in the dating scene, so if it's a term relating to that, i am ignorant!)

I think you can pretty much figure out the term "ghosted" from the word itself and the context. 🙂

It's like blocking.

the practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication.

@SkotlandSkye i would still ask. sometimes things don't mean what they appear to mean. i don't think there was anything wrong with asking.

My understanding of "Ghosted",is to stop all communication with no warning.
