Hmm, at what point should I be worried about a friend..

So here's a very well raised, obedient sort of asian kid, who lives at home, and doesn't go out much except to stay over at his gf's place.

However his brother just imed me right now asking if I'd seen him, and I told him no, I hadn't seen him in months. We actually had a get together with a bunch of high school friends, and he had emailed us a few days ago saying that he most likely would make it. However he didn't show up, and we didn't think too much of it since he had recently moved about 20 miles away from the town we all grew up in, and it's not as simple as the rest of us who still live nearby.

In any case, the brother tells me that he hadn't seen this guy, Adam, since the morning before..i.e. Tuesday morning. Normally if he leaves he'd be staying over at his gf's place, and would tell his family that he was doing so..however currently his gf and her family are actually out of the country, and he was supposed to pick her up today (Wednesday), and there really isn't anywhere else that he could really be.

Add to the weirdness then, is that he took the family's Miata, which really isn't the best sort of transport vehicle option for picking up a family of 4 with lots of luggage.

And, it's been raining really hard in the Bay Area today, there have been multiple accidents as seen on the news, and a Miata isn't exactly the most rain friendy vehicle out there--*knock on wood*

We've tried calling him multiple times, and his phone is still on but there's no answer. It's definitely unlike him to be gone for so long, especially without any sort of warning or for him to not even pick up his phone right now.

Not much to do now though except wait I guess..

Don't spider us this time.

I'd wait 24 hours then call the police and put out a missing persons report.

Fixed. Spider err.. Syringer, I wish you all the best with your friend 🙂.
 
Well, I've disapeared on some random trips to canada when I lived closer to the border for a couple of days with out telling anyone...3 days normally with zero contact means something has messed up. But I guess its better safe than sorry...
 
if he misses the pickup at the airport, then wait 24 hours after that and file the missing person report 🙁
hope he turns up ok

Is there a way to track where the cellphone is? I've heard of it being done before.

I believe the cell carrier can do it but it's difficult to convince the carrier. Hey SYringer--You are sure the phone is on?
 
I think I would let his immediate family call the police, it seems they are already very worried about him.

Good luck and keep us updated.
 
Id say give him longer than 24 hours, I mean even if it isnt like him to do this, 24 hours is a short period of time. Id at least wait 48 hours then file a stolen car report.
 
I hope he doesn't drive through Oregon. Seriously, the fact he's not answering his phone could mean something is up, and I would notify the authorities ASAP.
