Most of the time ghosting is often discussed when it comes to relationships and situationships, but this time it had to do with a possible friendship.
Eddie met a fellow dad at the basketball gym and they hit it off. He said they really connected and it was a natural connection with sons the same age. When Eddie was leaving, the dad asked for his phone number so they could do it again sometime. So they exchanged phone numbers. The next time Eddie was at the same basketball gym, he texted the dad friend who never responded. Then, Eddie was at the basketball gym again and he called said dad friend and didn't get an answer. So he gave up trying to make a new friend and feels like he got ghosted.
Bobby said he shouldn't have ever called, but a second text would have been ok. The phone call makes him seem a bit psychotic in this scenario and the rest of the show agreed. However, Bobby said not to give up yet but instead instructed Eddie on how to send one last text message that shows low key interest in being friends, but not desperate.
We will see if Eddie hears back from his potential dad friend, but the odds don't look great.
