I haven't heard from my boyfriend since Friday night

[Anonymous]

So long story short- my boyfriend went to Maine over the weekend with his uncle and grandfather to go hunting at their cabin. I knew we wouldn't be talking this weekend as he doesn't get service up there. He left on Friday and was supposed to be back home (NY) last night. Last I heard from him was Friday night around 7:30pm when he told me he was about to be out of service and that he loved me and would text me late Sunday night. Well it's now 8:47pm on Monday and I still have not heard from him but that's not what's concerning me the most. I tried calling him Saturday night to leave him a voice mail and it went straight to voice mail which didn't surprise me but the most concerning thing is that his phone has been completely off since then. So for about 48 hours now, his phone has been off and I haven't heard from him in 72 hours. I'm obviously freaking out thinking something happend and I have no idea what to even do? We are long distance (about 4 hours from eachother) so it's not like I can just jump in my car and drive over to his house. I don't know anyone in his family yet so I can't just text someone asking what's going on so I'm at a complete loss of what to do. Obviously the first thing going through my mind is that something happened to him and I got maybe 4 hours of sleep last night because I was worried sick. I'm at a complete loss of what to do right now and figured I would see if anyone has any thoughts.

Can you ask the police in the town where he was staying to check up?

OP here: I don't even know what town he was staying in unfortunately. I just know they were going up to northern Maine to stay in their hunting cabin thats pretty much in the middle of no where. He made a comment to me when he was packing about how he had to pack extra stuff to carry with him when they were out in the woods in case they got lost which kind of freaked me out. I just don't even know what I can do at this point and it's freaking me out.

Does he have any siblings listed on FB that you could check in with?

Woah. Relax. He said he would contact you last night. So it's only been 24 hours longer than he said it would be. Sometimes that happens on vacations. Phone could have died (mine is often off).

Stop thinking that he's been shot or has actually gone away with another girl.

OP here: He's an only child so that wouldn't work. I did find his uncle on FB and messaged him earlier this afternoon but it said it went to his "other" inbox and it still hasn't been read so that's gotten me no where so far.

You don't know any of his friends?

OP here: I understand that but he was supposed to be back for work at 6am this morning and NEVER has his phone off, ever. I can understand it being off Saturday night till last night but the fact that it's still off 24 hours after he should have been home is what is concerning.

OP here: We've only been dating for about 6 months and I know his two best friends but neither of them are on facebook. I also don't want to go crazy messaging everyone on his facebook at this point but this isn't normal for him at all so I am freaking out.

Do you know where he works? I would try to call there on the morning. If he's awol from there without any contact, then raise an alarm, but it's still too early right now.

Did it snow up there this weekend? They might have just gotten stuck an extra day. I know it's easier said than done, but don't panic - there's usually a very logical explanation for these things in the end.

1. He forgot his charger at home, so even once back in reception, he couldn't charge it up

or

2. He met some fit hiker chick in the woods and has run off with her.

He's probably fine. He's a grown man who went on a trip with other grown men and has gone to this specific place many times before. he's probably just busy at work or lost his phone or something. Don't get yourself worked up into a tizzy.

OP here: He works for a private farm driving around buying/selling farm animals so unfortunately, I wouldn't even know who to call for his work. I did look up the weather and it looked like they got about 8" of snow there on Saturday so the thought did go through my mind that maybe they got stuck for an extra day but for some reason I just have an awful feeling. I'm going to try and calm down a bit but I know if I haven't heard from him by tomorrow morning, I'm going to completely freak out.

This happened to my ex boyfriend. Turns out he was arrested and in jail. His parents let me know when I called worried about them.

When a friend died recently I heard within a few hours.

In other words I doubt he is dead.
