幫助女孩向表白者說不的應用程式 Ghostbot!

Can't handle the thought of rejecting someone to his or her face? Luckily technology is the best wing man.

當面拒絕不喜歡的人實在說不出口？幸運的是，科技如今能助人們一臂之力了。

Ghostbot is a new app that detects incoming texts from a person you're hoping to not communicate with and sends an unenthusiastic automated response on your behalf.

最新推出的手機應用Ghostbot能檢測接收到的簡訊，如果使用者不願和此人繼續交流，Ghostbot會自動回覆一條態度冷淡的資訊。

Ghosting is the trend of disappearing from a relationship – common among a generation of online daters. The texts Ghostbot will send are automated and unenthusiastic – meant to encourage the recipient to ‘get the hint' that you are not interested.

在網路約會成風的時代，Ghosting已成為了結束一段戀愛關係的主要趨勢。Ghostbot會自動傳送態度冷淡的簡訊，這意味著可以讓對方察覺到你不感興趣的"暗示"。

Example: If the suitor were to ask for a date, Ghostbot might reply: "Nope."

下面舉幾個例子：如果追求者想和你約會，Ghostbot可能會用以下的方式回覆："不啦。"

"I just have no time right now."

"我現在沒時間哎。"

"Sorry, just me and pizza tonight."

"抱歉，今晚只想和披薩為伴。"

The creators say that sometimes simply blocking someone creates awkward social circumstances. Ghostbot helps you go through the motion of ghosting someone without negative consequences.

軟體的開發者表示，有時直接遮蔽追求者會變得非常尷尬。而Ghostbot能幫助使用者逐漸甩掉自己並不喜歡的追求者。

However, Ghostbot might send the poop emoji or the thumbs down sign when it detects a lewd comment or a "booty call" text.

如果Ghostbot檢測到含猥褻或約炮內容的簡訊，則會自動回覆大便或拇指向下的表情。

The creators don't recommend using Ghostbot for ending long-term relationships.

不過，軟體的開發者不推薦人們用Ghostbot來結束一段長期的戀愛關係。
