Ghost Texting 

When a person sends a text message to another person and then completely disappears.
Usually happening after a person sends a text message that is a question used to begin a conversation.
Example of Ghost Texting:
"How was your weekend?" - Ghost Texter
"Gr8t did awesome stuff and found a bag of money, u?" - Texter 2
..
..
..
..
3 days later:
"How are you?" - Ghost Texter
"ok, u?" - Texter 2
..
..
..
And so it goes again and again.

I messaged her saying I was going to kill her, but my sarcasm was lost in textlation. Now I have been arrested for threatening her life.
