Hello everyone,

I've met a guy on dating app. After almost two months of chatting and very promising last messages he vanished. He doesn't own any social network, computer or phone. The phone he's been using whole time was his company's. Last messages I received from his company's phone was he no longer works for them. Any advice how to find that guy? I have his pictures (hopefully that's him) and some info. Please help with any kind of advice except the one I should give up.

I can tell you more details in inbox.

Kind regards


P.S. Can't post any pictures here to make easier to say how does he look like.

It sounds a bit like he doesn't want to be found. Hopefully he's okay, but there's probably not a lot you can do except let time pass and see if he pops up again.

Yeah I think the same but still would like to know is he okay and at least say goodbye to him. It would be fair enough. Anyway thanks for your answer.


Here's his description just in case someone knows him.... JN (34), born on the same month as me just one day ahead, 6'3'', blue-eyed and blue-haired, owns sisters pet (he knows which one), lives near one lake in Seattle, WA, his fav sports team Seattle Seahawks and used to work for the city on road maintenance and signs.

Sounds like you want to say good bye......but he doesn't.....or else he would. I mean he obviously has your contact information.

Tracking someone from a dating app down on a random web forum is bordering on.....well......creepy. Not the advise you want to hear but just stop.

No I don't want to say goodbye just would like to find out where is he gone. Tracking down?! Creepy?! Creepy would be to stand somewhere hidden and look at him all day long. I'm just trying to get in touch with him again that's all. And since he doesn't use any social network that's impossible so only way is through this. Anyway thanks for your opinion and advice

The other way would be for him to contact you, which he would do, if he wanted to talk to you.

Also in 2018 the only reason for telling someone your completely off grid like that and only giving a work phone as a contact is if your married or dating someone else. That way they are unable to contact you ever again if you dont want them to. Which seems to be what he has done.

You chatted for two month, never met in person, maybe never even talked?

He got busted - by his employer, by his wife, maybe both.

Move on.

Oh, I don't like endings like that. Hasn't happened in a romantic sense since, well... for a long time...

But it happens ALL THE TIME in every other way.

Just this week it's been with:
Craig's List
Petfinder (don't get me started...)
Buy Nothing Project
2 Prospective clients
Sister
CPA

So I've started doing the same thing. Except for the CPA perhaps I'm not going to go chasing people down. Not worth it.. and yes, I would totally tell you the same thing...

Sounds like he's the kind of guy who doesn't want to be found. If he wanted to connect with you he would... or will. He could have told you where he was going, but he didn't. He could have told you he was leaving his job (and his phone), but he didn't. And he could always go to the nearest library and use one of their computers and contact you there.. but he hasn't.

Seattle is not a small town. The possibility that any one of us will know this guy is very slim, especially for someone who wants to be in the shadows.

Let's make things clear. My intentions aren't bad. If he is taken then I wish him all the luck in this world. If he's not then I would like to get in touch with him again. However would like to know things for sure to move on. I don't like guessing. And that's all I have to say. Didn't come here to argue with anybody. And like it or not I do have my own opinion about certain things in my life, and sometimes that opinion doesn't match with the rest of the people around me.
