I have an old buddy of mine who I originally met on a dating site when I was 18, but we just became friends. He is/was a Marine, and I was sure he got out back in late 2011 (he said at the time they were letting go people who were done with their four years automatically)
I last spoke to him around this time in 2012, went to Japan, came back, and no contact since. He talked about going back, and spoke about going to school if he wasn't going back in the same state.
We usually spent like up to 8 months lull in contact, but the last five months, I've been slowly trying to reach him, but by today, I'm worried. He doesn't go on his FB much, only has 15 friends on it, and rarely has friends posting on his wall. His phone number changed sometime after mine did (and its my fault for not letting him know back then...I was constantly changing numbers)
I have the email and I sent a few, here and there. But I really miss hanging and talking to the guy, and after some personal things, I'm just wondering what to do.
I realize I sound kind of desperate. Oops XD; We never left on bad terms, we're both too cool with each other for that. Its just the way I contact people with technology, he never truly cared for to do himself. He preferred phone calls and text., so when I changed my number too constantly, and the one change he makes once in a great moon, its harder to reach him.
I have some things I want to share and reach out to him for, hence why I'm asking now. Some friends suggested rallypoint or linkedin, but he was on neither. (It doesn't help that he was born in another country and the shortened version of his Korean name is the same as many Chinese students...)
Any tips? I didn't know this is important enough to others to be considered asking for "Life Advice" but yeah
