Dating is a true gauntlet. You joust your way through losers to find someone who seems worthwhile, only to soon find they pulled a disappearing act. Now, you are knocked flat and wondering why this person ghosted you. Or maybe, you have done the ghost for a legitimate reason, like a lack of chemistry or the inkling your date was not that nice a person. Either way, there are people who are actually more likely to ghost than others. Here is a look at the types of people who ghost most often so you know what to look for: 1. Tattooed baddies Okay, not every “wild child” has tattoos, but they might have other signs, like partying, drinking and drug use. They might be a real (or figurative) rock star.

In what is an unprecedented move in England, a man has been found guilty of deliberately infecting people with the HIV virus. Daryll Rowe, a hairdresser, attempted infecting 10 men he met on Grindr with HIV, succeeding in 4 cases. According to Telegraph, he was, on Wednesday, convicted of five counts of grievous bodily harm with intent, and five counts of attempting to do so. Rowe had reportedly told his victims that he was HIV negative, pushing that they have unprotected sex. Whenever the victims insisted on using a condom, Rowe would reportedly tamper with the condoms, causing them to rip. He’d later send mocking text messages to the men, telling them he had infected them with HIV. “Maybe you have the fever. I came inside you and I have HIV LOL.
