They enable couples to divulge vulnerabilities, dreams and fears, creating a connection that transcends a surface attraction. In the absence of this, the relationship can hardly sustain itself in terms of depth and durability over time, however compatible the people might appear at surface level.

Ghosting is the abrupt and total disappearance of one party of a dating relationship with no explanation of the other party. Ghosting does not offer any closure unlike a breakup or a deliberate disengagement and leaves it vague whether the relationship is dead or not.
