Lost is the opposite of found - so everyone says.

That’s just half the story

Lost is when you’re separated from a loved one amidst a crowd and you frantically search for you each other.

But what if you don’t?

What word will use to describe - separated from a loved one amidst a crowd and they’re frantically searching for you; you see them, yet you do nothing.

You might even walk away.

Deliberate Hiding.

Separation Trauma.

Those words are stripped of emotion.

The acquaintances, in acquaintance versus friend.

The world is not a perfect place,

that we all know.

But there’s only one word that fits in.

You can call it

Anti-found.
