We always wonder that when we miss someone, is it because we love that person, we like that person or maybe it’s just an infatuation? We keep on fighting with ourselves that what’s the reason for missing that person? Some time we also miss people we hate. Many times we also miss people we fight all the time but when they are not around.

But, when you want to continue relationship with the person you keep on missing, you need to be clear with your intention. According to me there might be following reasons:

  • You also miss someone special when you are in love with that person
  • It might be infatuation ( just for a few days ).
  • You respect her/his qualities.
  • That person is always with you when you need someone to lean on.

Whatever may be the reason, I would say it’s a very nice feeling to miss someone. You keep on thinking about that person whole day and night or if it’s worst you might start imagining him/her near you.

Many people feel that it’s the worst feeling to miss someone, but I totally disagree with this. I feel it’s the sweet pain and you can for sure enjoy missing someone. The only thing you need to remember is that you have to miss the golden moment you spend with each other. Please don’t ever miss bad times you spend with that person. Always try to cherish the good moments and it will surely bring a smile on your face.

Another thing which people do is to hide their feelings in front of person they are missing. You must keep your ego aside and convey your feelings to that person. Life is too short; if you love or you miss someone do let them know. If that person understands you, it would never ruin your relationship.
Love is missing someone whenever you’re apart, but somehow feeling warm inside because you’re close in heart. ~Kay Knudsen
What do you do, when you miss someone?
 
Some people even miss things, like an heirloom or a home. In the end all we have are memories, if nothing else.
 
Human nature...we miss not only our good habits but also the bad ones like our addictions...when we are free of addictions I dont think we will miss anything. I wonder about those enlightened beings like the monks, the hermits and other altruistic people if they ever miss someone or something? Are they still human? For me its bittersweet to miss someone. It hurts but its fine, I would rather hurt than feel nothing at all.

What do I do when I miss someone? Nothing...just endure the pain for pain demands to be felt. Sometimes I smile when I remember the good times with the one I miss.
