As a regular Joe, i’m Starting to see a perfect storm/tsunami for a nervous breakdown.
The polar opposite of foul play would be a loyal person doing whatever she asked of them. I of course would immensely prefer this scenario, although I worry about self harm.
I thought the same up until yesterday, but now I’m strongly in the foul play camp.
There were undoubtedly stressors in her life, which is why I figured she may have run off.
The posture of law enforcement also convinced me of this, even though we now know that they haven’t been able to access things that they need access to.
It made sense, and there is no shortage of precedent for that sort of thing.
There are a few problems with that though:
Whoever she is with, has refused to come forward. This, with the whole country now aware of the situation.
We know she was dating multiple people, atleast some of them older than her. There are inherent risks here, especially with the potential that she met these people through dating apps.
She has no pattern of behavior that lends itself to her running away, and everyone who knows her says this is out of character (no contact with anyone, missing her midterm, missing a flight home).
We know of no mental health issues, or anything concerning that preceded her disappearance.
The meetup place and time, is odd. If something bad was going to happen, this fits.
Those things lead me to believe that she’s not hiding out somewhere.
