I have to broadly agree with Jacqueline, but sometimes it is not an intention to hurt that leads people to 'do a runner' it is that they just can't cope ( either short or long term) with someone, anyone, 'needing' something of them. He may have problems that are hard enough for him to deal with without having to think about anyone else.

If you think he will have kept your contact details then all you can so is wait, maybe when he has his life sorted out he will want you to be part of it.

Presumably as you had recent contact, you gave him your contact details. If he isn't responding to your texts and calls perhaps that is his choice and not a case of inability to do so. If that is the case, then do you really want to try to find him? I am sure you wouldn't want him to think that you were becoming some sort of stalker.

In that case, you may be better off without him, although you won't thank me for saying it, I know..

If he's ignoring you, I'm afraid his message is clear

and another thing...........

He lived alone, have thought about asking the neighbours but wasn't sure if it's the right thing to do. It was recent as I went there and found his car loaded up with his stuff but he didn't respond to my text or calls. I doubt if he'd have left a forwarding address as it now appears everything he's said was a lie.

Hi Lou.
How long ago did this person live there? It might be possible to ask neighbours if they know anything.
Is there someone else now living at the house? If the move was fairly recent, they might have a forwarding address.
I am guessing the name is too common to make a 192.com search practical.

How can I find a living person if all I have is their Name & date of birth? I had contact but he is not responding to telephone calls and it appears he has left the house he lived in. I have searched the local electoral register and he's not listed at the house he lived in. Does anyone have any ideas where I may go next please?

Thanks in advance Lou
