I know it's tacky to reply to my own comment but I was imagining how that conversation would go and wanted to add it here.

Coworker: wow that's unexpected. I'm kind of shocked to hear that

Me: Greg was too. When I spoke to him he looked very very shocked... At his recent decision. Shocked but also fine ... Looked very healthy... Happier than ever. He was actually so happy about is sudden decision to stop talking to all of his friends and family that he left immediately. I was like "hey Greg shouldn't you pack a bag, or atleast take your wallet, keys, and other important items with you before you leave to the wilderness forever " but he said "no. I choose to not prepare at all because I'm no longer interested in any of my worldly possessions. All I ask is that before leaving you should touch all my knifes and various other places around my apartment. Also throw out my plastic tarp i keep in the storage closet and ask all of my previous friends to never attempt to find or contact me" of course I agreed because how could I refuse a man's last request before he leaves permanently and immediately to live completely alone in the woods.
