The phenomenon of ghosting in the world of dating has been well documented. In an age of apps and meeting people online, being ghosted has become par for the course. However we’re interested to know about how you’ve been ghosted or perhaps you have ghosted someone else in other areas of your life.

Have you nearly sold a sofa to a stranger who suddenly goes quiet? Have you gone for a job interview only to never hear from them again? Have you gone silent on an old friend you promised to meet up with?

Share your experiences

We’re interested in hearing from people about their experiences of ghosting in all areas of their life, not just dating. If you’ve ever ghosted someone or been ghosted then please get in touch and let us know why.

To get in touch, fill out the encrypted form below, anonymously if you prefer – only the Guardian has access to your responses.

You can also add pictures or videos, if you have them. Tell us where you live or are currently and leave contact details if you can and one of our journalists may be in touch to discuss further.
