You don’t have to tell the truth.
Comment on After is a new dating app that tries to tackle ghosting

This sounds like a good idea on paper but will likely be terrible in real life. A lot of people ghost for their own safety. So many people have stories of dates turning nasty if they feel like they’re being rejected or criticized. Being forced to describe what you don’t like about the other person will not always end well.

Making it exactly like any other dating app.

But then what’s the point of the feature if no one is telling the truth?

Closure. People lie in real life too, not just on the internet.

I don’t understand why you’d want to see people lie to you. That just seems like a waste of everyone’s time to me.

If you’re doing it over an app, without the chance for the person you’re dumping to respond, I see no risk of things turning nasty

Except if the person decides to harass or stalk you in real life after reading the reasons. These aren’t hypotheticals, these things happen.
