Well, it depends on how you interpret their emotes. They constantly use that clown emoji, and so on. I interpret it as "not interested in talking to you" because, uh, I can't explain why. It's kind of because of all the circumstances in which I use those emotes when talking to my friends. I interpret their intent as how mine would have been. I frankly can't take them as anything else; it's a flaw.
Also, I didn't just start ghosting them for just this reason; it was usually for a few other reasons as well. For example, one of my former friends had habituated herself to calling people slang like dumbfuck on a regular basis. But I don't use such words when talking to my friends; I find them harsh. I kind of used to get upset whenever she'd call me by such slang, even when I had done nothing that could hurt her. We simply aren't compatible enough to remain friends. Her constant use of such emojis was merely a cherry on top, but a considerable one.
