Are You Being Ignored After Sex? The Truth Behind Ghosting After Sex

You slept with someone. Now, they’re ghosting you. Ouch. But rather than feeling sorry for yourself, it’s time to check out why you’re being ignored after sex.

1. They only wanted sex. 

Now, this is completely cool if you talked about this prior to the sex. That way, you know that sex was only what they wanted. While ignoring isn’t nice, you have it figured out.

If you didn’t ask what they were looking for prior to having sex, well, then you allowed yourself to be vulnerable to this type of behavior. What are they looking for? Casual sex? Getting to know you? A relationship? What?!

2. You don’t know what you want. 

At the end of the day, people can tell when someone doesn’t know what they want. They may have slept with you and then realized that you’re looking for something more serious or more casual that doesn’t fall in their list of needs.

Because you didn’t state your needs, they may have assumed that you aren’t on the same page with them. So, instead of talking to you, they ignored you. 

3. They didn’t want anything serious. 

Now, I don’t want to assume, but I have a feeling that you slept with this person before making a commitment to each other. I’m not judging, we’ve all slept with people before even talking about what we want in relationships.

They didn’t want anything serious which is why they ignored you after the sex. Depending on gender, men are able to have sex without feeling emotions, while women biologically have an emotional experience when having and after sex.

4. It wasn’t “it.”

Though everyone has sex, sexual experiences differ from person to person. For example, you may have had an amazing sex with one person while the next person you sleep with, the sex will be completely different. We’re not designed to have amazing sex with everyone we meet. We all have different bodies. Each vagina and penis is different and not all of them will fit together.

5. They freaked out.

Listen, the sex might have been wonderful , for you and your partner. It blew each other’s mind. But sex can be funny. You both had an amazing experience, but your partner is freaking out. They think about the future and what they should do which results in them freaking out and end up ignoring you.
