It's completely out of character
That's fair - we all come to situations with our personal experiences. I've had an acquaintance harass me in a manner that I would call very similar to how you have behaved (reaching out to my boyfriend, friends, etc) and was made EXTREMELY uncomfortable by it. That's where my perspective lies.

Harass? Ok. Have a nice day.

For whatever reason you are now persona non grata.
Yeah I'm done.

It's odd that the friend could not give even a short explanation of why she was not going to meet up with you on Tuesday night. A quick text canceling your get together is not asking too much.

Some people look like adults but don't act like adults.

It's just not who she is not to do that.

How do you know?

I would have left it alone after she did not message or text me back the first time.

People are flacky.

She's not flaky. Something bad must have happened.

JustJazzy, you did the right thing. It amazes me how cavalier some people can be about their friendships. As for me, I depend on my friends to check up on me if I am quiet and to call me out when I am acting strangely.

I know your curiosity and concern has not been satisfied, but I have no idea what you should do next. Probably nothing.

There is something going on that certain people do not want you or anyone else to know about.

I don't think you did anything wrong. If I had plans to meet with someone and they fell off the face of the earth, I would be trying to reach them too. Especially if it's out of character for them.

The whole circumstance is weird, but maybe something changed and they were too immature to actually talk to you like a grown up? As someone else noted, maybe they are having marital issues and are locking themselves down.

Working in social media, this isn't as uncommon as you'd think. It sounds like you were blocked by both to me. Do you have other people who were mutual friends with them?

Personally, I think it's highly inappropriate to call her work.
You had a thread about a friend committing suicide. Kind of odd you don't get that things happen to people.

Agree, but I think a lot of people have a lot to say when they're not the ones in the situation. Very easy to say that when it's not someone they care about who suddenly is MIA.

I posted earlier I know a situation where a fairly young guy was found dead in his apartment after a few days, he worked from home so no would miss him in the office, but a couple of people worrying looked into it.

Unforntunately and it seems to be more and more bad things can happen.
