When a guy is dating a girl and decides, after verdantly pursuing her for weeks, that he is no longer interested. Instead of being upfront and honest, he disappears without explanation. This makes interactions with the girl extremely awkward when they don't need to be. When the girl tries to find out what's going on by sending a thoughtful and honest text or email, the guy ignores this, making the girl feel rejected, hurt, and confused.

The reasons for abandoning the relationship are typically psychological in origin (i.e. mommy/daddy issues, fear of commitment/intimacy, etc).
"How are things going with Dan? You guys seem way into each other!" "Oh, I haven't heard from him in over a week. He dropped off the face of the earth. I guess he's pulling a John."
