Named after the ‘friendly ghost’, this is a friendly way of ghosting someone. Ghosting can be a tad harsh, which is why people have found a easier, gentler way of rejection. Caspering relies on giving subtle hints of wanting to end things before ghosting on someone.

Breadcrumming is essentially just leading someone on without having an intention of reciprocating their feelings. When someone is breadcrumming, they flirt and text and give them just enough attention to make them like you. However, these devious people aren’t interested sharing the complete ‘bread’ with you!

Like the poltergeist version of Casper. An orbiter has disappeared from your life but still hovers around all your social media. A classic orbiter will have no contact with you for weeks and then like an Instagram post or tweet — to randomly jolt your solar system.
