hoping2heal Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Hello, sorry my dramatic title here but I am little freaking the f*ck out. My LDR BF is in another country (India). He went on an overnight trip to visit his son and it's been close to 24 hours since he was expected to arrive home and I haven't heard from him. I have sent msgs to his cell phone expressing to call me because of how worried I am. I also don't think it's like him to just not call for this many hours. I am in the US and I have no way of knowing if he's okay, I don't even have a f*cking phone that would call over to his country. I'm just outraged and scared as hell. I feel so helpless. Does anyone know how I could somehow search the web or something to see if something happened? I don't know. I don't know what to do, I have been crying all morning, I'm scared as hell. I don't know, I am so worried.
JeezLouise Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 Go the website of the airline, and look for the flight number for that date, and it will tell you if it was delayed or not. Are you sure you have the dates right? When is the last time he contacted you, and what did he tell you about his travel plans?
Tony Posted May 17, 2009 Senior Moderators Posted May 17, 2009 If you have his phone number in India, call me at 813-637-9063 and I'll patch you through to him. This post is against our guidelines but if it will help you rest better I'll risk getting banned.
Author hoping2heal Posted May 17, 2009 Author Posted May 17, 2009 THANK GOD. I heard from him and he's OKAY . I am so relieved I am bawling like a baby. THANK GOD THANK GOD THANK GOD. I was so f-ing worried something thappened!! Thankyou for your suggestions, and Tony thankyou for the offer but I have no way of verifying who or what you are, I would never call and give his personal information to someone that I couldn't verify whom or what they do, sure it may of been an innocent act of kindness, but I wouldn't risk his safety on that chance.
JeezLouise Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 He's....he's....Tony. Whadya mean who or what he is? LOL! Tony, it might be time to delete your post, which I thought was one of the nicest and most thoughtful things on here I have seen in a long time. Glad you heard from him. I assume he is fine?
whichwayisup Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 but I have no way of verifying who or what you are, He's the bigwig here on the site. He's trustworthy..
Author hoping2heal Posted May 17, 2009 Author Posted May 17, 2009 He's the bigwig here on the site. He's trustworthy.. With all due respect, being a "big wig" on a forum site doesn't mean you are automatically trustworthy. Maybe some of you have different experience with him, I do not. I'm not saying it wasn't a nice suggestion, I was only saying I wasn't going to risk my bf's safety on it when there is no way for me to know who this person is or anything about them. Even with everyone vouching for him, again no offense Tony. It was nice what you offered, I just wouldn't call you, give HIS personal information and say "well, people on a website said he's a bigwig". That's not enough justification for me, I know nothing about the guy whatsoever. People suggesting he needs to "pull" his post because of my reply to it well, I wasn't being ungreatful for the suggestion, I'm just not going to call up a stranger and give someone ELSE'S personal information. If you think that's a bad thing, so be it. I don't.
JeezLouise Posted May 17, 2009 Posted May 17, 2009 I suggested he pull his own bc he might not want everyone on LS calling him. Honestly, if you were that worried and that freaked out about the lack of contact from your BF, then giving his TP# to a stranger isn't that big of a deal. What in the world could someone do with it? Call him incessantly in another country, running his own phone bills up? Wait until he comes back to your country, and call incessantly? It's a cell, so the number will not be published with a corresponding name with it, and cell numbers are transferrable (mine is from Washington DC area, and I live nowhere close to that - I kept it from 7 years ago) and don't necessarily indicate a living geographic location.
Bearandsue Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I am glad your BF is ok. I think it was very sweet of Tony to offer. If my Bear was missing and I was that worried Pshhh I would call anyone who could help. Thats just me.
Amy22 Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 I think it was very sweet of Tony to offer. If my Bear was missing and I was that worried Pshhh I would call anyone who could help. Thats just me. Ditto. I think that was a very nice thing to do.
Author hoping2heal Posted May 18, 2009 Author Posted May 18, 2009 I have never said it wasn't nice. I think if anything I keep re-itterating the fact that it is, but that doesn't mean it's safe. Being worried and scared isn't an excuse to lose all common sense and just risk someone's safety in an attempt to find them. It is possible to trace adresses through phone, with a phone number you can actually gain access to all kinds of information through the root of a phone number.If you think that's a sign of not caring,that's your opinion. Believe me I was very worried and cared very much, but again it isn't an excuse to compromise someone. Had he been an agency or some kind of service, it would be a different story.
Art_Critic Posted May 18, 2009 Posted May 18, 2009 You posted on a web forum about how distressed you were that you couldn't contact him and then someone offers to hook you up and you go on a rant about internet safety and traceable addresses.. If you look at Tony's profile you see that he is the LS DIRECTOR.. IP's.... ~Art By the way.. Glad he is okay.. you might want to invest in a cell that can call international
