Is silence kinder than a “no”… or just easier?On this episode of Real Love Scenario, we’re tackling the breakup epidemic known as ghosting — and asking whether it’s a self-protective act or just emotional avoidance.
We define the difference between ghosting, the slow fade, and healthy closure — and break down what each one really costs on the path to love.
💔 Topics We Cover:
  • Ghosting vs. clean break vs. slow fade
  • The wildest breakup lines we’ve heard (and said 👀)
  • How to deliver kind, honest closure without doing damage
  • Why ghosting hurts more than it protects
  • When blocking is self-care

💡 The 4 C’s of Healthy Closure:Clarity (say what you mean)Courage (lean into discomfort)Compassion (truth without cruelty)Cost (ghosting erodes self-trust too)
🟢 Green flags: Timely “no,” fair reasoning, no dragging🔴 Red flags: Breadcrumbs → silence, post-intimacy ghosting, avoidant exits
Give the grace of a clear, kind no.Try the 24-hour closure rule — and remember: blocking is an option if someone won’t let go.
