For personal matters, I prefer ghosting (receiving and giving). It's better for everyone in the long run. Just rip the bandaid off. The person has made up their mind, so discussing it just prolongs the inevitable.

For business matters, it's just common courtesy to not leave someone hanging.

But you're not ripping the bandaid off, you're ignoring it and hoping that it will fall off on its own.
