Your therapist suggested that so I agreed it might be ok. Normally ghosting is wrong but not here.

It doesn’t sound like relationship is still going on. He told you he doesn’t feel the same and he distanced himself, it is a sign that he is bailing out. He is in your area but doesn’t see you. The only way you saw him is going to his house once a week and watch him being passed out drunk.

It’s not like this guy comes gets you for dates and constantly calls you and already purchased tickets fir a show or a trip and have dates planned and is commited to you but you will ghost him. That would be wrong.

But there is really not much going on between you two. You want to inform him that relationship is over but it’s already pretty much over. So it would be ok to just go on with your life
