    Guy and Girl are good friends. The Guy allows the Girl to give out his phone number to other dudes who hit on the Girl when she isn’t interested. When those other dudes call the number the Guy answers and explains that the Girl has been dead for 15 years. The other dudes are left confused because they just physically met the Girl and they are left thinking was that girl a ghost?

      Thanks for the effort, I appreciate it. Now I understand the situation (and the pun of the title), I guess. I don’t think I’ll ever get the point though.

          Huh. Well, I certainly trust your assessment much more than my own. Thank you for taking the time to help me out with this. Still, it just goes to show that I’m constitutionally unable to understand these weird convoluted drama-games the rest of you seem to enjoy.

          To better illustrate the difference in perspective, this is the kind of exchange I’d be able to comprehend:

          “Would you be interested in getting to know each other better?”

          “No, sorry.”

          “That’s quite all right. My apologies for interrupting your evening.”

            You sound like a good person who understands healthy boundaries. Unfortunately there are lots of people who are not like that and would rather keep applying pressure when rejected.

      Imagining this happening to me, I’m just kind of stuck with wondering how a guy who knows the story ended up with the supposedly ghost girls number. What’s the deal there? That’s weird right?
