I confess to ghosting several girls, some of wh I dated at least as long. Sorry to tell you this, but assume there was some thing about you the guy really didn’t like and didn’t want to tell you.
We are big kids now. Use your words, and just say, I'm not really feeling a connection. I agree with manager 2; have some class, and don't act like a third grader.

The reason you can’t get over it because it didn’t go on long enough for you to realize it wasn’t the right fit for you. There’s still a mystery for your head to fill like was it something you did, something you said, something he didn’t like etc. the truth is you’re never gonna know the reason you got ghosted. Most likely you weren’t compatible in some way, and he was too afraid or cowardly to confront you with the truth. So he walked away to avoid confronting his own self and treating you like a person who deserved honesty. If you had dated for 3 more months and realized he was a jerk or a bad fit, you wouldn’t be feeling this way. Sometimes we really really want answers but often times they don’t help us. What helps us is realizing that the right person would never treat us this way and our brains want to solve the puzzle but it’s better to walk away yourself.

Which part are you having trouble getting over: the guy or the ghosting?
Sorry to hear that but also it sounds like you’re better off without him so in the end it worked out for the best!

It can be a feeling of "the one who got away." It's the unanswered what-ifs or the lack of closure that's bothering you.
I once had a friend with whom I spoke for almost three months before cutting all ties. I had my reasons, but, tbh, I thought it wasn't worth the hassle and was more of a liability.
I also knew that it would eventually turn into a shitshow, so I chose peace over conflict. I still care but I don’t care enough to keep in touch..
The truth is you will never know!!
You should let go what was yesterday and enjoy what you have now.. 😉
You're missing closure, sorry to heart you went through this.
