Is it unethical to ghost a friendship

I’ve gotten friend ghosted and that hurts more than a relationship ghost. I’d tell her you need to cut the friendship off and then if that doesn’t get through you can ghost. You don’t even necessarily need to give a reason.

If you feel there’s really nothing there anymore any communicating it won’t really accomplish anything, I don’t think so. Sometimes we just have to move on.

I don’t think it’s wrong but every time she reaches out and I blow her off or don’t answer I feel guilty for not explaining why. But the reason I decide to ghost instead of having a conversation is because it doesn’t feel worth it to fix anything for me. In that sense it feels so mean to just list reasons I don’t want to be her friend. So either way I feel guilty.

Also worth noting that we were only friends for ~4 months but we were close during that

Did she do something bad/wrong? Is she super clingy? I don’t understand

I realized that she is never the problem in her eyes and that resulted in her being super mean to me and other people around us. Think middle school mean girl.
