- Okay, so it's a big crowded singles bar. One regular described it as the place you go at the end of the night, when they play old hip hop in R&B that everybody knows the words too. - People are grinding up on each other, like it's a high school dance, like it is just shameless and fun and a little sloppy, and it's a meat market. I like it because it's shameless. Someone will always hit on you. That's like why I come here. (upbeat music) - So lots of pickups, lots of ghosting afterwards. It's early evening, and that's what I'm here to look for. Serial ghosters, people who kiss and disappear, which are not hard to find at all. And yes, some of them definitely agreed. Ghosting's bad, they felt guilty. Like this woman, she ghosted a guy after seeing him for two months. Great guy, she said. Hit it off immediately. Saw each other a couple nights a week. - And then I went to a wedding, met another guy that I was very into. - First guy kept reaching out, texting. And I just wasn't responding as quickly or as often, and we weren't making plans. And he said, "I wonder if I'll ever see you again." And I didn't respond to that. And I feel really bad about it. I feel really, really bad about it still. Like he's a great guy, he did nothing wrong. A great guy, and I feel bad for ghosting him. - There are so many reasons to ghost. This guy, for instance, has a boyfriend. He's there at his table. They're in an open relationship. And basically, he got drinks with another guy when he met on Grindr. And it was fun, it was kind of romantic. - I should have disclosed that I have a boyfriend. But I didn't. I think I perceived him kind of to be more monogamous. There was kind of a point where he was talking about, like gay guys who sleep around too much. - So he said nothing. His boyfriend in the open relationship. They kissed when they said goodbye.
