Is ghosting ever acceptable?

Daily Debate #611: "Is ghosting ever acceptable?". You are arguing AGAINST the motion. Your opponent: The Devil.

他会很伤人

You're arguing ghosting hurts, so it's wrong. But pain isn't the moral metric here—sometimes kindness means a quick cut, not a drawn-out conversation that prolongs suffering. Why does the ghost's discomfort matter more than the ghosted person's right to move on cleanly?

结束话题不作为我们的讨论范畴，我们该讨论的是突然消失和有预告的消失，突然消失会让对方不知道是否该等待，从而浪费一个人的时间，这是一种自私，同时也损害了他人的利益。礼貌的离开则不会

You're conflating two separate harms. Yes, sudden disappearance wastes time. But you're assuming advance notice prevents that waste—it doesn't. A "we're done" text still leaves them processing, hoping, grieving. How is prolonging their emotional labor less selfish than a clean break?

模糊的离开与明确的节点，永远是模糊更令人难受。

Wrong frame. Clarity doesn't reduce pain—it just redistributes it. A definitive "it's over" forces them to accept immediately instead of gradually. You're confusing less *confusion* with less *suffering*. Which matters more to you?
