Heartache is probably the only pain that cannot be shown or described. You can not just pop a pill and let the chemicals work their magic on making it stop hurting. So, when words fail, music helps, here are 8 beautiful Hindi songs which describe the feeling of missing someone who’s already gone: 1. Phir Le Aaya Dil- You’ve moved on, life is going fine but well, when the heart wants what it wants, it comes calling like no one’s business. This is a beautiful track that spells reminisce like nothing else. 2. Ae Ajnabi – On some days, don’t we just sit back with memories in the hope that someone on the other side calls us back? Oftentimes than not, people in our lives stay for a season or a reason. If you’re missing someone who’s gone, call out that ‘ajnabi’. 3. Jiyein Kyun- I love this song for its sad reality and how it embeds truth in music and lyrics. ‘Naa aaye ho, na aaoge, na phone pe bulayoge’, real and poignant. 4. Tum Ho- The beauty of owning someone’s heart is in letting them free, even though that’s ironical, but that’s so true. Tum Ho is an ode to a love that’s probably not physically with you, but it will stay with you till the end of time. 5. Ye Dooriyan- Let Mohit Chauhan soothe your broken heart with his beautiful voice as he calls out ‘ fanaa ho sabhi dooriyan’. 6. Mana Ke Hum Yaar Nahin- Sometimes, in life, your heart needs more time to accept what your mind already has. This beautiful song of two people reuniting, not as lovers but as lovers from the past, describes how important it is to move on, even when your heart decides not to. 7. Channa Mereya- Classic heartbreak song for a love that’s gone, bound to never come back. 8. Agar Tum Saath Ho – As Arijit rightly asks, ‘tum saath ho, ya na ho, kya fark hai’. Well, there’s no ‘fark’ but it hurts to believe that your heart has been changed forever. View the full article

10 Men Reveal Why They Had Sex With Someone They Found Physically Unattractive
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Would you ever sleep with someone you found unattractive? Well, if your immediate response is to feel repulsed by the idea of it, then consider yourselves different. Looks as we know aren’t the only thing that a person can find attractive in a potential partner, even if it’s just a random hookup. Sometimes regardless of beauty standards and preferences, a person with a killer personality can really seal the deal for you. These men from the popular subreddit r/AskMen explain why they ended up sleeping with someone they found unattractive: © Istock yea when I lost my virginity I thought about losing it more than I did enjoying it, wouldn't recommend - TinfoilTimothy © Istock It's not the horniness it's the loneliness - ohboy2020isshit © Istock She is a friend of mine and well had nothing else to do. Then, in all honestly in the end she was by far, I mean by far the best I’ve ever had. - Evee862 © Istock Yeah, we dated for a few months. While her physical appearance wasn’t great, she had an amazing sense of humor and a great personality, she was kind, and she was a fun person to hang out with. - k0uch © Istock Yes. She was my supervisor and I wanted paid time off. - Buckar00_Banzai_ © Istock Yes, she was a physics major who was working as a student-tutor for my freshman physics class back in college. I didn't find her very attractive at first, but she had a great personality and everything she said was hilarious. She could explain the most mundane task and still throw in the funniest quips that would make me lose it every time. I never thought I would be the one seduced by charisma alone, but she was so brilliant that it didn't take her long to win me over. We continued a casual relationship for a year until she graduated. She's currently pursuing a PhD in physics at a top tier university, and she's engaged to someone else (I'm admittedly a tad jealous). We still keep in occasional contact, and I honestly do miss her. But, I'm happy for her, and I'm glad she's doing well. - IlikeFOODmeLikeFOOD © Istock Mainly out of pure amazement that she found me attractive. - knockatize © Istock We were friends, knew each other all through college, and she had a great/funny personality. And was also a very horny girl at times. So while she wasn't the prettiest girl, I found her "attractive" because she was...attractive. Damn good in bed too. - ToyDingo © Istock Yep, I literally cannot say no. The only times I’ve ever said no is when I was in a committed relationship because I’m not a cheater. - -full-control- © Istock Yeah my first wife. I got pushed into marriage due to cultural pressure and from my parents. Went it to it for all the wrong reasons. I thought there was something wrong with me and got my test levels checked as to why I couldn’t get aroused. I then realized as I get older, I had to actually have a physical and emotional attraction to someone in order to get it up. Imagine that! Lol. More to the story but uh… yep. - TnnsNbeer What do you think? Have you ever been in such a situation? Let us know in the comments. View the full article -
For the sake of this article, let’s assume that you’re in a relationship. Your partner is everything you want her to be - smart, sexy, caring, daring, whatever qualities float your boat. Walking with her hand in your hand in a room full of people, makes you feel good about yourself. But, if we were to change the dynamics of this equation just by a tad bit, where you’re not simply walking into a room with her, but she’s also getting the attention of every other guy in the room, how would it make you feel? © istock Would you feel proud? Insecure? Cocky? Or a rather less admitted feeling - turned on? While society and most people understand where the first three emotions come from, it is the one where you get turned on by the sight, which is the most scandalous. And we get why that may be. © istock Because getting turned on by watching other men show interest in your woman, can be a very explosive and controversial thought to have in what people like to call a ‘loving relationship’. However, what these people fail to acknowledge is that the idea of getting turned on by watching your partner get intimate with someone else is not taboo, it’s a legit fetish and it is called cuckolding. © istock Cuckolding, in simple terms, means watching your partner have *** with another person. What sounds to some as their worst nightmare, is actually a sexual fetish for quite a few men out there, who get off on the idea of sexual jealousy. In fact, the word ‘cuck’ is used to refer to a man who is weak or in this case - not alpha enough to ‘control his woman’. The kink is also not very uncommon when you come to think about it, and just how highly searched a category ‘cuckolding’ is on porn websites, is pretty telling in itself. The reason why anyone would be into something like this, which clearly seems emotionally scarring to most of us, is because the act tends to induce jealousy into the mix, which is a good catalyst for arousal. And of course, there is the entire trope about wanting to do something that is called forbidden by the monogamous society we live in, only to get off of it. © istock Psychologist Dr David Ley in his book, ‘Insatiable Wives’ mentioned the possibility of watching your partner with someone else often makes one enthusiastic and motivated enough to beat the other guy’s sperm for fertilization. Not that most men who are into this fetish do it without protection, which is why, the win for them, in the end, becomes - your partner’s desire for you over the other guy. Bordering on emotions of humiliation and sexual vanity, where a man might be turned on when his partner is physically being desired by someone else, while the fetish might have a logic behind it, it is gravely misunderstood in a society like ours, where monogamy is idolized. © istock However, for someone who finds a partner that gets turned on by watching them go at it with someone else, it is no less than cracking a jackpot. Of course, the act of cuckolding has its own rules, where consent and comfort play the key role, for neither of the two should feel like they’re being exploited or violated. For some, cuckolding brings out an irresistible desire for their partner, heightening their arousal while for others it becomes a way to fall in love with their partner all over again. Either way, it is not as cringe as we’d think, considering couples often use it as the ingredient to spice their relationship! Source: Psychology Today View the full article

Kartik Aaryan, who won rave reviews for his performance in Dhamaka, is among the most promising young stars of Bollywood. Last year, he was all over the news after his controversial exit from Karan Johar-produced Dostana 2. Following this, several reports suggested that he lost out on several other big films as well. However, nothing affected his popularity and he still owns a huge fan-following. View this post on Instagram The Pyaar Ka Punchnama star recently attended an award function in Mumbai where he was asked about certain 'influential' people in Bollywood 'targeting' or 'harassing' him. On being asked about the trolling and targeting, Kartik replied, "I don't even read them". When someone from the press asked if he was being ‘bothered’ by someone in Bollywood, he replied and said, "There is nothing like that. Nobody is bothering me. Award le ke jaa raha hoon (I'm taking home an award)". Watch the video here: For the unversed, Dostana 2 was announced by Karan in 2019 with Kartik alongside Janhvi Kapoor and newbie Lakshya in the lead roles. However, last year in an official statement, Dharma Productions had revealed that Kartik is no more a part of the film due to professional circumstances. Back then, there were speculations that the actor lost the film due to his "unprofessionalism". However, he too chose to keep mum about his ouster from the sequel to the 2008 hit. Since then, there has been no concrete update on Dostana 2 and it is being rumoured that the film has been shelved. Talking about his upcoming projects, the actor will next be seen in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 co-starring Kiara Advani. He has also wrapped up shooting for Freddy with Alaya F and is currently busy with the Hindi remake of Allu Arjun's Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo titled Shehzada. Directed by Rohit Dhawan, the movie stars Kriti Sanon as the leading lady. View this post on Instagram He also has Satyanarayan Ki Katha and Captain India in his kitty. View the full article

Back when Shark Tank India aired, no one thought it would be the rage it is today. From hearing interesting pitches to getting to know more about the entrepreneurs on the panel, there was a lot to talk about while the show was going on, and it seems like there is plenty to talk about even now. © sony pictures televison Especially in terms of memes that serenaded social media and gave trolls meme-fodder for life. From taking famous dialogues and criticism of sharks like Ashneer Grover whose “bhai Kya kar raha hai tu”, went viral, or Pehush Bansal’s fixation on taking up projects that reinstated our faith in humanity, every panellist got to be known for some or the other catchphrase. And one such shark was Namita Thapar, Executive Director of Emcure Pharmaceuticals. Salute to Namita's consistency in terms of her delivery.@HaramiParindey @Zakirism#SharkTankmemes #SharkTank #SharkTankIndiamemes #sharktankindia @thetanmay pic.twitter.com/b2bW02bn7u — Akash Tiwari (@tiwari_akash_) January 28, 2022 A user on Twitter recently took out time to make an entire flowchart of her most famous and funny catchphrases that obviously started with our favourite, ‘Meri isme expertise nahi hai’. With a flowchart that user Akash Tiwari had seemed to make on a whiteboard, the chart had every possible reason and explanation that Namita had given on the show to contestants, starting with “Chunki main pharma se hun”, and ended at “Isiliye I’m out.” © Namita Thapar And you have to give brownie points to Akash for getting it absolutely right and also for almost cracking us up with his post on Twitter. With almost 3 thousand likes and several hundred comments on the thread, Akash’s tweet has gone viral and we don’t wonder why.

While Shark Tank as a popular American show has been around for quite some time, Shark Tank India started its journey with a bang. For the uninitiated, the show is the Indian franchise of the American show Shark Tank. It shows entrepreneurs making business presentations to a panel of five investors or sharks, who decide whether to invest in their company. View this post on Instagram The show features a panel of potential investors, termed as "Sharks", who listen to entrepreneurs pitch ideas for a business or product they wish to develop. These self-made multi-millionaires judge the business concepts and products pitched and then decide whether to invest their own money to help market and mentor each contestant. 5 out of the following 7 sharks are present in each episode - Ashneer Grover, Aman Gupta, Anupam Mittal, Ghazal Alagh, Namita Thapar, Peyush Bansal, and Vineeta Singh. View this post on Instagram While a number of memes and other entertaining content have been doing the rounds on Twitter and Instagram, based on the personality and quirks of each shark, fans have started showcasing their creative side and decided to join the bandwagon. While Ashneer's no-filter approach has been the subject of a number of memes, this time, someone decided to take up Namita Thapar's demure avatar as the material, and actually went ahead and made a 'dialogue flowchart' based on her responses. Salute to Namita's consistency in terms of her delivery.@HaramiParindey @Zakirism#SharkTankmemes #SharkTank #SharkTankIndiamemes #sharktankindia @thetanmay pic.twitter.com/b2bW02bn7u — Akash Tiwari (@tiwari_akash_) January 28, 2022 It analyses each and every aspect of her communication with the pitch makers, and viewers have already given their verdict on the flowchart and said that it's 'bang on'.

Social media is a strange place and that was proven once again when a social media user asked Aamir Khan’s daughter if she is 'related' to the superstar. It so happened that a few days back Ira shared a couple of pictures of herself with her father Aamir Khan. The pictures were from their Christmas celebrations and garnered a lot of response from Ira’s followers and Aamir Khan’s fans. One of the users, who probably was unaware of Ira’s relation with Aamirm commented, “Why is he close to you? Is he your relative?” Responding to his query, another follower replied that they are father-daughter, “They are father and daughter” and that Aamir is her biological father. © Instagram/Ira Khan The user refused to believe that Ira is Aamir’s daughter and joked, “Lol, Good joke sir, Shah Rukh is my biological father then”. Another user joined the conversation stating, “Dude, she is the daughter of Aamir Khan. You can always check it on Google to confirm.” A fourth user then chipped in saying Google also gives out wrong information, “Bhai Google jhuth bhi bata sakta hai kitne chance huye hain ki Google pe search kuch karo aur aata kuch or hai (Brother, Google can lie also. It has happened so many times, that you search for one thing on Google and the results are totally unrelated).” Which means there were no two people who were refusing to believe Ira is Aamir’s daughter. It is what it is. © Instagram/Ira Khan Sharing the screenshot of this whole conversation on her Instagram story, Ira wrote, “This is new.” She further quipped, “But yes, don't believe everything you read on Google.” Take a look at her Instagram story below: © Instagram/Ira Khan Ira is Aamir Khan’s daughter from his first wife Reena. Unlike her father and most of the other star kids, she isn’t inclined towards acting and wants to be a filmmaker. She made her directorial debut in 2019 with the play Euripedes’ Medea starring Hazel Keech. In an interview with Hindustan Times, Ira had opened up about not opting for acting. She had said, “I’ve always felt more comfortable and enthusiastic about working off-stage or behind the camera rather than [being] in front of it. I’ve never felt the inclination to act except if it were in an action film, so I get to learn all the cool stunts. Then again... I can just learn how to do the stunts without a film to work on.

As the year inches towards its end, we are all somewhere or the other making a mental list about the best and worst of 2021. Best moments, movies, songs and whatnot. And while we may have explored quite a lot of hits and misses in this last month of 2021, one that we probably didn’t touch base upon is the ‘best dish of 2021’. You see, this was the year that we spent dealing with the after-effects of Covid, with spending most (if not all) time in our homes. And one thing that came naturally to all of us during this time of sitting at home was ordering food from outside. After having maxed out on our use of apps like Zomato and Swiggy, Zomato has released a report sharing the most ordered foods were in 2021! And you’d be surprised to see what topped the list! View this post on Instagram Coming victorious on the first number is India’s favourite and most ordered dish -Biryani, which as the stats show, had an average of being ordered 115 times per minute! And with this, Zomato ended up delivering 2 Biryanis every 2 seconds. At the same time, one food item that was every street food lover’s fantasy - momos earned quite a few fans for itself. There were almost 10,666,095 momo lovers in 2021, of which we were definitely one. Meanwhile, There were also a lot of Samosa and Vada Pav lovers in the mix, 7,297,152 and 3,157,424 respectively! © Vicky Kaushal But one of the most interesting insights of this entire report and analysis wasn’t any of this, but the fact that Zomato also ended up finding out the most popular couple of 2021 and turns out, Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif weren’t it! © Zomato Beating one of the most talked-about couples of India, especially after the #VicKat wedding, Zomato revealed that the actual most popular couple of 2021 was Paneer Butter Masala and Butter Naan, after which came Vicky and Katrina. And if we were being honest, they earned it, after being ordered for more than 1.1 million times! © Zomato The fun and insightful Zomato report also shed how Dosa was in fact the most ordered dish after Biryani, with over 8.8 million orders placed for it. Guess that’s a pretty heavy wrap for 2021 and with Delhi having been put on ‘Yellow alert’ for Omicron, we won’t be surprised if Zomato sales will boost once again, supporting us through an imminent lockdown, yet again.

Being in a relationship can be so much fun, if you are with the right person. It does have its perks and perils but for the most part, it’s a lot of work. That’s probably why most people nowadays prefer being the lone wolf. © Viacom 18 Motion Pictures People who have just gotten out of a draining relationship can vouch for it. There are umpteen benefits of staying single and men on Reddit just listed some down in a thread. © Dharma Productions From saving money on dinners and dates to the freedom of doing whatever you want anytime you want, men shared reasons why being single is actually pretty amazing: 1. Mental PeaceDrama-free decision making. Not saying that people in a relationship are dramatic but man, the amount of confrontation in a relationship that comes with drama, just leaves you mentally tired sometimes. © Dharma Productions 2. Saves (A Lotta) MoneyThrough 7 years of a solid relationship, I had barely £1000 saved away. A year of being alone and I've got 5x that in the bank with more on the way when I sell up the unneeded shit and move. 3. It’s Definitely Better Than Being With The Wrong PersonSure, I'd rather be in a good relationship than be single, but a bad relationship < single < good relationship. I'm receptive to a good one if it comes along, but I'm being picky from now on. 4.No Nagging You can also not do things for however long you feel like it. That broken blind that won't close properly? nobody's nagging you to fix it right after you came off work and was looking to sit on the couch doing nothing. Nope, it's going to stay broken until you actually feel like fixing it, not when you're tired of the nagging and you want it to stop (spoiler alert: it never does). © Dharma Productions 5. No WorryNo paranoia about your partner. 6. More Time To Catch Up On What You LikeBeing able to finish tv shows and movies completely. 7. And, To Sum It Up…You just have more freedom in many aspects of your life - you have more finances, you answer to no one, go where you want, do what you want, it's a great time for self-improvement, discovery or just a time to think about life, yourself, what you want and where you see yourself. © Excel Entertainment Single lads are the happiest, hence proved.

Pankaj Tripathi is one Bollywood actor who probably has no haters in the world. I mean, when you look at the kind of films and TV shows that he's done over the years and the manner in which he has acted in them, it only takes little time for someone to become his true fan. His calming yet powerful on-screen presence is seen in every different character that he plays, a reason why a lot of his films and shows end up being so relatable to viewers. © Prime Video After doing projects like Stree, Mimi, Gangs Of Wasseypur, Mirzapur, and many others, the actor's latest movie is the Rani Mukherjee, Saif Ali Khan, Siddhant Chaturvedi, and Sharvari Wagh-starrer Bunty Aur Babli 2. The movie is a sequel to the superhit 2005 film Bunty Aur Babli that starred Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukherjee. © YRF The sequel, while being similar to the first film, will focus on the story of two con artists from different generations in a battle to prove who's better. However, talking about the movie, Pankaj got reminded of the time when he was conned in Bollywood. As you know, in Bollywood, you need contacts and aids from people who might help you get roles and auditions faster. This is where Bollywood agents come in handy. They charge a certain commission on the money you get from projects but they help you in getting them through their knowledge of the industry and their links to the right people. As an actor, his or her agent sort of becomes a very close person as he or she may actually help in making your career. But what happens when you get betrayed by the same person you put your trust in? Well, that's what happened with Pankaj as he reveals how his agent conned him for some money. © Instagram/Pankaj Tripathi He mentioned that the incident happened a few years ago, after which he decided to only deal in cheques. “When I contacted the company to check on the policy, they denied having it. After this, I made sure to make only cheque payments. It was a small amount of Rs 2,000 to Rs 5,000 but the incident made me aware.” said Pankaj. Now, having gone through that, Pankaj will be putting a stop to conmen everywhere. Well, at least in the upcoming Bunty Aur Babli film, where he plays a cop named Jatayu Singh. © YRF Speaking about his character, Pankaj said, “He is a super-intelligent cop, who thinks he is India’s biggest cop. He hopes to become a great cop or feels that he is in the process to become the greatest cop. He always wanted to become an actor but ended up joining the police force. He is a filmy cop but intelligent. He sets the old Bunty Babli behind the modern Bunty Babli so that they do his work. He feels that a cop should be intelligent and that's why he makes one chase behind the other. The audience will get to see different layers of his in the film." Directed by Varun V Sharma, Bunty Aur Babli 2 will be released in theatres on November 19. View the full article

I’ve always believed that all of us have both a good and a bad side to us. And while most of us spend our lives trying to thrive on our better side, there are times, and inadvertently people, who bring out the worst in us. via GIPHY Whether it is a boss, a parent, a friend or even a partner, there are times when we often find ourselves in the middle of a discussion that quickly escalates into a screaming match, and before we know it, we have in our hands a full-blown fight. But that isn’t the worst part. What’s worse is what comes next - the deafening silence and not knowing what to do next. Since quite a lot of us struggle with breaking the ice after an ugly argument, here are a few text ideas that might help you navigate through that tough spot: 1) When You Feel Remorseful © iStock Anger is an all-consuming emotion, one that washes all over you and often makes you say/do things you later regret. Which is why, when you feel remorseful or guilty after an argument for overstepping or perhaps saying something nasty, try to lead with something like, “I wanted to apologise for my behaviour and regret it deeply...” While it may or may not be enough, it most definitely will lay out your intentions of not wanting to hurt the other person deliberately. And that is a great start. 2) When You Feel Overlooked © iStock The thing about a verbal fight is that it can spiral out of control at any given point, and sometimes that might make you feel unheard. So, during times when you feel neglected and your feelings don’t get acknowledged, you can simply write, “After giving our conversation a lot of thought, I feel you did not understand the point I was trying to make..” 3) When You Feel You’re Not Ready To Let Go © iStock Sometimes, despite having had a squabble, one tends to feel there is still a little bit of a fight left in them, which makes them not want to let go just yet. In those cases, it is best to text the person saying, “I don’t feel that I’m ready to have a productive conversation about how to move forward.” Telling them you’ll come around when you feel calmer and simply need some time to cool off is always better than diving headfirst into yet another argument. 4) When You Feel Hurt © iStock ‘Words are mightier than a sword’, and at times even more hurtful. In a fit of rage or frustration, it is possible that you find yourself at the receiving end of a lot of harsh words that you can’t get over. When that happens, rather than bottling those emotions, be upfront and text, “I feel extremely hurt by what you said..” so that the other person knows what is going on, instead of you waiting around for them to figure it out. Chances are, pointing it out in a polite and dignified manner, might just help you get your point across after all. 5) When You Want To Make Up © iStock After all is said and done, there comes a point when you don’t want to pursue the quarrel anymore and simply move on. When that’s the case, the best plan of action is to suggest putting an end to the fight and writing something like, “I hate that we’re fighting. Let’s try to find a middle ground and end this here.” At the end of the day, what matters most is not winning the argument but arriving at a solution where both sides are heard and acknowledged.

5 Tips On How To Calm Someone Down Without Actually Asking Them To ‘Calm Down’
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Whether you’re in a romantic relationship, or part of a closely knit family or simply super-attached to your best-friend, there will come a time when despite knowing them so well, you’d be at a loss of words. via GIPHY These moments are usually the ones where the other person calls you in a state of panic and self-deprecation, leaving you befuddled about what to say or do next to make them feel better. And speaking from experience, saying ‘calm down’ seldom ever works. If anything, it only adds fuel to the fire, and last we checked, no one wants that. Which is why, next time you feel confused or troubled about how to manage to calm someone down without asking them to calm down, here are a few things you can do instead! 1) Offer Them Space To Cool Off via GIPHY It’s okay sometimes to not have the perfect thing to say to someone who is panicking or getting hyper. And it is during that time, when you can let your actions make up for it. Instead of giving advice right away, allow the person to take her time to chill out. Offer them a glass of water, suggest them to take deep breaths or even take a stroll. This way, you’d perhaps be suggesting ways for them to calm down, without actually saying it. 2) Don’t Dismiss Their Feelings via GIPHY Instead of simply denying their feelings or their emotions, by dismissive statements like ‘don’t worry about that’, or ‘why would you feel this way’, try to validate their feelings for a change. Telling the other person how they may be wrong in experiencing a certain emotion will only make them feel more aloof or even attacked for simply sharing. Hence, you can start by supporting them and saying things like, ‘I understand’, or ‘that must be so stressful’. This way, they’re more likely to feel heard and will eventually simmer down. 3) Let Them Arrive At The Solution via GIPHY There are times when someone we love calls us up in a state of mess and the first thing that comes to mind is to offer them a quick fix. We simply start trying to come up with a solution for them, instead of enabling them to arrive on it by themselves. Rather than coming up with ideas to fix their worries, support them long enough so that they are back in a position to deal with their crisis. Chances are, they already know what to do but are simply a little overwhelmed. 4) Don’t Be Judgemental via GIPHY The biggest piece of advice here would be to be there for your friend or your partner without making them feel that you’re judging them for their reaction. Whether or not they are presently blowing things out of proportion, it won’t be the right time to point it out or even give them a hint about you being judgemental about it. Sometimes simple reassurance and acknowledgement does more than anything else. 5) Ask Them How You Can Contribute via GIPHY The best way you can help someone who is overreacting or getting anxious to calm down, is by conveying to them how they’re not alone, and that you’re there for them, willing to do help. Even a simple, ‘Is there any way I can make this better’ can go a long way in making them feel better and a lot more calmer. Because sometimes, all you need is to know someone has your back.

It can be really confusing and hurtful when someone who you’ve been flirting over texts and falling for suddenly sweeps into oblivion. You don’t hear from them for days, weeks or months before finally trying to move on and assuring yourself that they aren’t going to come back. However, that’s when they crawl right into your life with a ‘Hey’ or ‘I miss you’ text. © iStock These types of ghosters who return back are called zombies. Not making it up. It’s a legit term used in the dating world so, you see how common it is for someone who disappeared into thin air to finally show up. While the reason for a ghoster returning could be anything, it’s up to you how you want to respond, or not respond at all. © iStock Whether you are seeking an answer from them for leaving you high and dry like that or you want them back, here are 5 ways in which you can respond to the dating zombie: 1. Play It Cool © iStock It’s rude and selfish of anyone who doesn’t end things with dignity, but if you two haven’t been dating and there were no expectations, pretend you don’t care. Respond by saying ‘hey what’s up?’ or ‘Can I help you’, like you didn’t even notice she was gone because you have a life of your own. 2. Go Straight For The Kill © iStock Ask her right to her face, I mean text or call, however, she reaches out to you, just ask point-blank- "what the heck happened?" If you have been really affected by this, quit the games and tell her she owes you an explanation. 3. “Who’s This?” © iStock Ouch! That's gotta hurt! Doesn’t matter if you are lying and have her number saved (duh), knowing that you got her ‘outta sight outta mind’ real quick is going to sting her bad. Once she tells you who she is, go on normally with the conversation and she will explain herself. 4. Pull A Chandler Bing © iStock By that, I mean use sarcasm to make them feel guilty and responsible for bailing on you like that. Say something like ‘oh, look who rose from the dead?’ or ‘so, you didn’t lose your phone’. Sarcasm is a safe way to put across your point while also making it crystal clear that ghosting you was unacceptable. 5. Thanks, But No Thanks © iStock When you see their text flashing on your phone, but you don’t want to entertain them or their apologies, say you see their text but you are not interested. Tell them ignoring like that is a dealbreaker for you and you would rather be with someone who respects your time and energy. Or, even better, simply save your time and efforts and ghost them back. Don’t respond and leave them on ‘seen’. If you aren’t convinced they had a genuine reason for ghosting you or this is a pattern, better not take them back in your life. View the full article
