Being 'Ghosted'

Being born back in 1970 I find learning about 'modern' culture and contemporary society very odd at times and often have to Google strange online dating (OLD) terms such a 'swipe left/right'; 'ghosting' and 'no longer flipping unterested (NLFI). I think that many readers will agree that it's a difficult world to navigate at times?

To cut a long story short, like in the words of the popular beat combo, Spandau Ballet, after a couple of months of not a great deal of contact, James has written me the email detailed below:
-------------------------------------------------------
Dear Margaret,

I am writing to respectfully request that you no longer contact me. The methods of communication I refer to are as follows: text message, WhatsApp, Facebook Wall Posts, Facebook Messenger, email and carrier pigeon. Whilst I find your 'unique' sense of humour charming and somewhat endearing, you really should spend more time attempting to find suitable employment.

I enjoyed our time together immensely, but know that it is time for us to part. I truly believed that you would find alternative friendship via the various Meetup Groups you subscribe to.

All the best,

James
