Why Do Men Ghost?

I started talking to this guy last weekend. We did the Instant Message Thing for about an hour. We had a really good conversation and he seemed so eager to meet ASAP. I asked if he wanted to speak on the phone a little and he said that if I gave him my number that he would call me. Well, I gave him my cell phone number and he said he would call me the next evening. I received no phone call and have not heard from him since. I sent him a quick email on Thursday night asking him if he was still interested in meeting. He hasn't responded to that email yet. I am really confused because he was so eager and now he hasn't even gotten back to me. I just don't understand what is going on, why do men do this? Any feedback would be appreciated. I am getting so discouraged.

Thanks,
Karalyn

Well, ghosting is not exclusive to just guys so... but honestly, why do people ghost?

Yes,
I know your right I need to pick up and move on and learn to not take it personally, which I am trying to do. I guess I am getting sick of these guys that seem so eager and then they are gone. It is confusing.

I agree - it is confusing and it sucks!
