We’ve talked about a lot of dating trends on Do You Really Know, many of which are pretty negative. And the subject of today’s episode is no exception. R-bombing might sound pretty dramatic, but in fact it just refers to leaving someone on read when they message you. 

You know, those annoying blue ticks you see on whatsapp which tell you your message has been seen. They light up and you expect the other person to start typing back; only they never do? Well if that’s happened to you, then you’ve been R-bombed!

Isn’t that the same as ghosting? Why do people do it then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
