a person on a bicycle in a forest who is wearing a sheet with eyes cut out to resemble a ghost — Being ghosted feels like sheet.

When people tell me I definitely have ADHD, because I flit between different creative projects and sometimes start things I don’t finish, I point out that I am also the world’s most reliable and punctual person.

I would never not turn up to a lunch date, or not reply to an email, unless it’s from a prince desperate to bequeath me a million dollars.

When people go silent on me, it’s tempting to think: maybe they have ADHD? in order that I feel better about the whole thing.

But maybe they don’t. Maybe they just don’t like me or want to continue the friendship. Which sucks a bit more, because it’s voluntary.

I am such a pro at being ghosted
