Do you know anyone who "disappeared"?

I've been watching cold case files, disappeared, basically any crime show. I'm wondering how often people go missing and are actually never found, or are actually found alive after years.
Bump and share your story if you have one
my mum has a friend who disappeared from everyone for a couple of years then came back. she disappeared again and hasn't been seen since.
my friends mother vanished without word. but rang after a few months to say she was ok. she calls yearly. they dont know where she is or any info tho.
Quoting Mama2ETA:I just wish her parents could find some closure. There are a ton of rumors. If that one is true (even though the co-worker said it came from his mouth, who really knows ya know?) I wish they could find the body and let those parents do the unthinkable burying their dd. They are so sweet. They ride in the St. Patrick's Day parade every year with a sign "Find Kara Kopetsky" and the date she went missing with her picture. The emptiness in her eyes makes me cry every year. She is a sweet lady too. I was part of the group that went door to door and met at the high school and passed out flyers everywhere.

Some people have serious issues. I feel so sad for her. May she rip.
Quoting Mama2ETA:
No doubt. I heard the story an old coworker heard straight fromj the bf's mouth, and his other friends verified.
They don't have solid evidence or a body. She was into drugs too though. They told him it was an overdose then they buried her under the back patio then layed more cement.
Quoting nelliesmommy:
I remember her story. Think the bf did it?
Quoting Mama2ETA:
Kara Kopetsky, she disappeared on May 4, 2007 from her school.
What makes you think she is on a missing persons list, she said herself she probably isnt missed or being looked for.

Telling a police officer at your new location across the country so they can take you off the missing persons list sounds the opposite of selfish.

I gotta cut in here. I don't think you've ever been scared of a person you thought would kill you? After leaving my abuser, I couldn't shower without a knife next to me.
I worked at a DV shelter and you'd be surprised at how many women do this. It's either this or die. The details are no one's business.
Quoting Mamasgirl524:
Not at all. You're being extreme. You have every right to cut off contact with anyone and everyone if you chose, but have the decency to tell a police officer so they can stop wasting resources on someone who isn't really missing and focus on those that are.

thats fine, you are entitled to your opinion. I suppose I should have just stayed and gotten killed and have my child killed eventually. It would have been a better use of police resources.
Quoting Mamasgirl524:
I'll be honest, nothing you can say will make me think it's not selfish.

Like I said, you dont know my situation or how I came to make my choices. You arent in a position to judge me.
Quoting Mamasgirl524:
The police won't give you up. It is selfish that they use their resources for a person who isn't really missing.

You dont know my situation. I dont know what was done to find me, I dont quite care. My child's safety and mine were at risk and we did what we needd to. If that is selfish so be it.
Quoting Mamasgirl524:
I hope you don't have police using their resources and family members sick worried about you. That's pretty fuckin selfish.
Quoting Anonymous:I was that person. I dropped all ties and communications suddenly, and moved far away, changed my phone, email and erased my fb.
