It's just "What to Do if a Friend Ghosts You" (NYT).
Mundane advice for if a friend ghosts you: "Sometimes it’s obvious a friend is done with you... But often, friendships simply peter out.... [C]onsider the possibility that your friend isn’t deliberately ghosting you; life simply got in the way."
To extrapolate the advice to the question what to do if a ghost friends you: Sometimes it’s obvious a deceased person is not done with you. Often, friendships last forever. Consider the possibility that the ghost isn’t deliberately friending you; death simply got in the way.

let's Ask The Important Question!
What to do if a Ghost ghosts you?
Imagine The Horrible, when you realize that Even the DEAD won't socialize with you!!
The explicit lesson of Ghost Town (2008 Ricky Gervais) was that you get ghosts when you're not done with them.
"All I want is a friend." - Casper
"All I want is a friend." - First step to becoming the FBI's Domestic Terrorist of the Month
Someone needs a quick Cassadaga fix. IYKYK.

Right now I’m reading Roald Dahl’s Books of Ghost Stories, none of which he wrote. It's a careful and well-done selection. And at least for Dahl, the scariest ghosts seem to be the ones the protagonists never had the pleasure of meeting when they were still alive. But yeah, many are not yet done with us.
I miss Sir Archie.
That's pretty brilliant.
The worst is when your new friend realizes you're not able to help solve the issue that ties them to this world and moves on to someone else without saying goodbye or responding in your séances.You know, when your ghost ghosts you.
A true friend doesn't ghost you. A true ghost doesn't friend you.
I ghosted Caspar the friendly milquetoast.
Caspar Milquetoast is a fictional character created by H. T. Webster for his comic strip The Timid Soul. Webster described Caspar Milquetoast as "the man who speaks softly and gets hit with a big stick". The character's name is derived from a bland and fairly inoffensive food, milk toast, which, light and easy to digest, is an appropriate food for someone with a weak or "nervous" stomach.
The Banshees of Inesherin has this covered.
OMG!!!
Is there a 14-year-old girl demographic that subscribes to the NYT?
Lol. I'm so tired of that "life got in the way" excuse anyway. Hard to believe writers still reach for it. Like wow my life is so outta control...
Hilarious.

Sometimes the ghost ghosts you.
Like Banquo, or Hamlet's Father, ghosts appear only to provide portents. You should only be afraid in the medium to long term.
