Social Anthropology
Abstract
This thesis provides in-depth analysis of the phenomena ghosting within the online dating world. Ghosting has become a common option to exit a relationship. The phenomena have rapidly grown along with the development of the internet and technology. New habits of socializing as well as changing ideals of relationships are parts of understanding the growth of the phenomena. With this thesis I seek to demonstrate the opinions and thoughts of young adults who has ghosted. Using anthropological methods, I have interviewed five people between the age of 23-29 who have ghosted one or several times. The empirical evidence gathered from the interviews along with previous research and theories constitutes the analysis of the study.
