Well someone else I know went missing during the pandemic and nobody at all knows where they went.

Seriously folks, now is not the time to go off the radar. People will think something happened to you.

My first conclusion would be to be worried something happened to them, not they decided to "go off radar".

Is this an American thing?

No, it's a me thing. Because some people I know do that shit like my friend Tyler.

I am worried something happened to them though. I'm worried they caught the disease and didn't make it. All I'm saying is everybody please make sure to stay in touch with your friends and family. People will worry if they don't hear from you.

Been there, done that; some of the times where I was off-radar was not thanks to the abusive psycho ex. Not something I would wish upon anyone.

My mom worries it might be expensive, but my dad told her not to worry about it. Of course it helps that he is a business owner and even after being married over 30 years, he is still madly in love with her and would do anything for her.

It's certainly out of the ordinary. At least compared to White American couples it seems.
