miss someone and I can't do anything about it... I don't know about you but, my heart, sometimes.. when I miss someone... is like.. it wants to bounce out of my chest ! it's like your soul is being dragged out of your body !! because you want to see that individual person or people so badly :( sometimes you might smile without any reason... because you remember a good, happy,or funny thing about them.. and after a while you become sad again :/ you'll be like : what a memory :D \/ yeah, that's what they've became... just a MEMORY ='( /\ it's, the most unpleasant feeling in the whole world.. and the worst part is : sadly to say, when you can't do anything about it... What about you guys, what do you hate? Or what do you feel when you miss someone?

That is being in love, I think. Being moody all the time and never know when to smile or when to cry. And when thing has become a memory, that is the saddest cause we know we would never experienced it again, or at least we would never experience it again with the same person... What do we do, we just have to go forward. And hope that somewhere near we will find another happiness...

I think part of us loves the person we are missing. but not all that we miss are special to us. there can be moments in our lives we have experienced with the person and not usually spent with other person... I guess there are things that longs us to be with that person again but then not all times or we can't turn back time when we are still with them...

I am not sure I follow here, but you are right. Many in our past were just memories, so we don't really need to get back there. Some were special, bu still to me they were all belong to the past. I need to concentrate to the ones in the now times...

But I know it's all part of missing someone and we can make use of it. We have to move forward and motivate ourselves not to get drowned by this bad feelings...

yes, definitely! We have to divert all those sadness to smiles and one of the reasons to smile is having ice cream around...care to have some? just dig in! most of the time, people, or mostly women divert their attention or depression to foods. Desserts are one of them. SO, most of the time, women gets fat that easily. Don't you notice it? Actually, I have noticed that most of my neighbors are all getting fat, and fatter. I have seen them since younger days and then, we are all getting big. I guess it also depends on how much you are earning and makes you feel like wanting to taste all foods out there!

Hi Vi! I also hate that feeling, specially before when my husband and I was still in a bf.gf relationship and we are living far from each other, what I just do when I missed him is I will just call him on phone, coz cellphone is not yet that popular back then...hehe or sometimes I will just write a letter for him and send it to him the next day... Well that's the least I can do. Now, I still feel the difficulty of missing someone, but this time its my family (parents & brother) whom I always miss and sometimes missing them makes me feel like crying...haha specially when I am alone and feels like no one to turn to...

My husband and I met in my hometown in Laguna, he studies in there. Then after that he was assigned in his hometown in CDO. Now after getting married we are assigned here in Cebu... Haha, yes but calling him costs me a lot. I am using landline to call on his cellphone and each call sometimes lasts for an hour! No no, I don't think much of those happy moments that we have coz I will be missing them more, what I am just doing is try to text them or call them and after that I will be okay since I know that they are just there...

Okay, so i guess the time you spent together in Laguna is not that long, am i right? Well, it's really hard to be apart from the people whom you learned to love. It's good that you still communicate with each other even though your somehow...miles apart... I guess it is more irritating when you really want to be together but you can't cause of so many things... The more you're away from each other the more you feel like wanting to fly from where he is... Things like that really happens... it is part of our lives. we have to learn to cope being apart from the ones we loved and realize how we really loved and willing to wait for them no matter what... that's true love! you have to wait for the right time to be together... Hope that I'll find mine as well...

that's the problem when we can't do anything cause we live far from the person we miss.i wonder where did you first meet your bf that time if he is your husband now... i guess he wasn't really from cebu,is it? luckily,there's mobile phone available for you that time so you can still contact him... as time pass by,there can be eifferent people we miss specially those who we lived with the rest of our lives then we have lived separately from them. the family we'll always have... it is sad to miss them,but all you can do is think of happy things youve shared that makes life fun..

Hi dear.. So, who is that "someone" you miss? Do i personally know him/her? I can relate to you because I also hate missing someone. I don't want to get used to holding back my feelings, but I usually don't have a choice but to do so.. Memories.. yes.. I don't know if i can define memories to be something good to reminisce about, or not. I guess it still depends.. maybe that explains why I do not have picturesque memory. really. I don't remember perfectly every chapter, or situation of my life. I don't reminisce that much, because I don't like feeling the sadness it would bring..

I am really not referring to anyone in here, gen! I was just imagining the feeling of missing someone and the fact that how we really feel when we miss them and how bad it is that we can't do anything about missing them. Well,yes it is hard when you know you miss someone but then you can't do anything about it. The feeling of looking back on things you have shared with them, the feeling of wanting to be with them again and thinking how life can be if they are still with you. Holding back the feelings you have for them can be hard as well. Cause by doing this when you know you can't be with them anymore, might really hurt you so bad. It's just the memories we have to keep from them. Those good times we have shared with them when remembered can bring tears to our eyes. Those bad things we have can bring us laughter as well. Isn't it funny when things turned out differently when we only have are the memories? When you have been too much attached to a certain person or thing, it is really hard for you to let go when you know it is over... That's why there's a saying, don't put all your love and attention to a single person cause when it's time to part ways, you will be the one who'll hurt the most that makes it hard for you to move on and live the life you should live...

yes dear I know the feeling.. I have been through a lot of sadness and pain in my life.. And I don't reminisce as I've said before.. Because I feel like, of all the trials I've been through, it's like, I don't wanna go back to that kind of situation again.. I hate being sad. I can't do anything when i am thinking of someone that it makes me super sad.. I only keep happy memories with me..Though I don't remember them exactly the way it happened, but still I cherish them.. Specially the memories I have with my mama.. I would admit there are some people who have made mark on my life. but since they are already in the past, then I don't reminisce anymore..Hahaha... Your reply sounds like a super lonely damsel.. You nedd to go out.. Come on. Starbucks tayo!!

Hey Annavi , Yes i know you are not referring to anyone but from my point of view: You really can`t do anything ? With these feelings you really care for this person , so why not get it back ? Yes i had this feelings for my actual girlfriend , i resisted only 2 weeks and went back for her , she went back to her past boyfriend at that time , but i stood and Fought for her because she was not secure to leave him for me......for me the one who went away for 2 weeks with no word .....but i did that because i was scared , scared because of the feelings i have for her , but made up my mind and yes the fight was hard , but impossible is not impossible and Today after 2 years we are together and we get along fine. First of all to solve this situation is to get back your partner , if you want it you can get it , and if he wants of course :) Secondly these kind of feelings are soul ripping. Memories come and go as life , one day you will get over anything , that`s part of life , Born - Live - and .....END so it`s better to enjoy the life , we can`t do it anytime , but it worth fighting for :)

Wow,great advice huh? Well, it's great that you have fought for your love. Sometimes we can't have all we want in life. That's just it. We have to learn that sometimes we have to mind other stuffs. There may be other things waiting for us and willing to be loved as well. It's just how we learn to accept them.

yes, it is human nature to feel that we miss some people in our lives and we have to feel the pain of struggling to be happy despite of what we are feeling inside of us...the sadness will just fade away when we focus on things that we know will make us happy or just to avoid such too much thinking of that person or thing that we miss. we have to stand up and do things ahead of us and not feel to much burden of missing them...for in the end, it is our own responsibility to take care of ourselves. we deserve to be happy. and it's not just the only person that will make us happy. isn't it?

haha, i will only miss someone if they are too short or too tall for them to notice them.. lol Other than that, as long as they are on my eye level, seeing them is not a problem at all :D haha BAck to topic, well, if we miss someone, there's nothing we can do about it because the more we try to forget them, the deeper their image is etched in our mind. Somehow or other, we would take the initiative to contact that person, even a short response from them tends to make us feel good too, right? lol Whaat we actually wanted is some kind of acknowledgement from that particular person, to feel we are still in their mind, and we feel secured.. haha

Haha, nice one but i am not in the mood for such jokes, if it was a joke,brother! true, we can feel secured when we have heard from them and let them know we miss them...we might not say the words but then the effort of reaching out to them again after such a long time.is still a good thing. but not all people wanted to hear from us. there are times, things got too complicated that even if how much you miss the person, you can't go on and say hi to them again...they may live different now but then it is just the memories and thoughts of them that we still miss those times we have sharreed with them...just the fact that it can't be happen again that's why it can make us feel sad...

...it wants to bounce out of my chest! I think that some people would argue that what makes a person rich are all the memories that they keep. And the many times that all of these memories want to bounce off their chest is what makes their lives happy.

Haha, just as I thought, you'll quote that line... Yes, you are right. these memories makes our hearts and lives more happy cause if we miss a certain person, it means we loved them...well, not all people can be loved equally but then we know deep in our hearts how we miss and loved and accepted them whether a friend, loved one, relative or schoolmate or colleague, neighbor and so on so forth... What matters is that we have cherished and treasured those times we have shared and being thopught of is important, also to let them know that they are important and loved as well...

It is really one of the most harsh and frustrating feelings out there, when we miss those who are no longer around. And there are times were we look at memories, that might feel a bit faded slightly as time goes on, as we wonder what might really have been. There have been times where it can be a rather bittersweet experience to miss someone. Yet, it is with a heavy heart and a clouded mind when this really happens a lot of the time. Still no one really truly leaves us, but they are not truly with us either, as we smile bitterly at the greatest memories that we have right of them. Smiles be put on our face and life does have to move on. Life does in fact really have no pause button, that is horrifically true.
@annavi23 (6522)

18 May 12
Yes, life has definitely no pause button cause it will always play even if we stop. even if we wanted to turn back time, we really can't. I don't know about time machines if they really do exist but i know things happen for a reason. people come in and out of our lives. we meet new ones that turn old and meet new another one and get old... life's like that. we sometimes want to stop but then the world will go on without waiting for us...we are just wasting time for stopping, right? and we just have to think positively and believe that things will turn out fine. we just have to have faith and trust in ourselves and God who created us...

When i missed very close friends, i just turn over to my photo albums and look at the pictures we had together, lol! Once in a while, i would send an e-mail to ask of their whereabouts, their endeavors, or whatever it is they are spending time with. With today's technology, video calls through skype or YM could do wonders.

Hello obe! if you have time to reminisce and look back on those times you shared with each other, i guess it's good to look back their faces way back since you were still together hanging out with each other. Sometimes pictures can really make us sad. The ones you see with you laughing or smiling can be the moment you will cry when you scan through the pages of it. It's because we can't be able to bring back those times happy times we had specially when we really can't be able to see those people again... But if they're still alive, yes we can email them or give them a letter. But then there are also instances that we can't do it cause things had gone different already. and we have to live separately. What remains is just the memories that is kept within us...

I feel sad when I'm missing someone. I will recall those memories we shared together. Things we laughed onto,stories we both agreed its funny.Food we think its awful and incidents we felt annoying. I love thinking back the things we've been through.But sad to say its not we intend to missed them just because they left something behind to let us know "ONE TIME IN OUR LIVES THEY BECOME A PART OF IT" that in our heart, the memory will remain unchanged and FOREVER it will never depart. I missed someone that brought me to where I am now,who raised me for being me now,it kills me when I started missing the one who loves me unconditionally & unselfishly.The memory of him until the last moment of my life,I will bring along with me... Your topic it reminds of someone! One the most important person of my life!! Take care always.Hugs and kisses! Cloud..

I have a lot of friends and I miss them a lot. There are times when tears comes from my eye when I think or memories them. When I think of them the first thing which comes in my mind is the memorable time with them. Finally I think how nice it will be when my friends is with me all the time but it is not possible. Life is like that we cannot get all the ones which we expect or which we want. Gods always gives treasures as unexpected and takes them back when we are really touch with those treasures.

It's good from time to time let them know how are we doing and vice versa. Having friends or people who have touched our lives is a wonderful thing to happen to all of us...

I feel that you are missing someone so badly. When I was in such situation, I would just think of the happy days most times and the fights made with them. It would make me to think more about them and meanwhile I would learn something about them from that incidents. Then if I feel so much worried, I would start counting the days when to meet them again in future.

yes, true!

Well, i think we do experience missing someone cause it tests our love and concern about them. how we truly loved them or just miss being with them... I know people sometimes just pass by and we can't force them or time to be with them again...

Hello Annavi, It used to happen to me some time back, probably during the initial years of my college. Whenever I am in a helpless situation or stressed out, I go back to my fav activity, i.e. sports. And then I am relieved like anything. Of late, I've not felt anything like that over the past decade or so, mainly because I don't attach myself that much to anyone. Would like to suggest the same to you. It really helps.
@annavi23 (6522)
• Philippines
11 May 12
Hello there, jshekhar! Yeah, it's good to divert your thinking on things you love doing. As you said, you like sports. You are right that if we do things we enjoy doing, we can forget about what happened and the things or people we miss might be forgotten. But then not to the extent that you can really forget about them. It's just keeping yourself busy and try to think more positively that things will be okay. And you will be okay even if those people are gone and never to be seen again... It's just the memories that you have to look back and keep in your heart and think of happiness for yourself cause if they can see you right now, they would really want you to be happy even without them by your side...

I know exactly how you feel. Last night I couldn't help but cry because miss my dad so much, and it hurt that there is no possible way I'd ever see him again. He passed away recently and every day is hard because I miss him every day. These days, any memory of him is painful, but I'm looking forward to that day when every time I think of him, I'll be happy because of all the good memories.

Oh, glorycam, so sad to hear about the incident... I know the feeling of never having the chance to see your loved one again... It is a very painful thing to happen that most of us wouldn't really want to experience. But then life is really like that. We all have to face the end whether or not we're ready to. People who have been a part of our lives, whom we treasured the most and whom we have lived with the rest of our lives can be really hard to erase in our thoughts. So sorry that I made you feel uncomfortable in here, but then here it is. We have to save ourselves and don't put too much sadness in our lives. We have to move forward and learn to stand up after the fall. It is just a trial for us on how will we live when the people we love has taken away from us. I know it is really hard to live that way and unexpected things can happen so fast. You just have to stay calm. Breathe and remember those times you shared can be treasured in your heart and can't be erased. I know those happy days you shared can bring tears to your eyes, try to remember the bad things and see yourself smiling instead... I know it's hard but then you have to be brave cause God don't give us things we can't handle... He knows you can handle yourself now and the fact that you miss your dad, is just in your mind... I know he wants you to be happy and go on with your life!

I hate the feeling of missing someone especially with what i'm going through now. I hate to miss but i can't get it off me. Missing someone can have its pros and cons, while for now, it's all cons.. It's just a few weeks ago, i really missed my bf when he's abroad, but when he's back the day before, i felt scared.. It's a completely different feeling when we are waiting, to the big day arrives. I rather keeping mising him and not see him again, than to miss the good part of missing. Lastly, if good things are memories, what are the bad ones? Experience?
@annavi23 (6522)

I would say, missing is like part of us wants to be with that person or there's a feeling that we want to do with them again... I think there's a good side of missing a person. It makes us realize what are those things that we miss with them. Is it the fun when we are with them. The doings with each other, the places we go when we are together. The things we are doing, the memories we both made with each other... Makes us realize what life can bring when we are always together and now that we are not... May I ask, what do you really like, to just miss a person and never even wanting to be with them again or be with them and never let them go? Relationships can also have trials come their way and those trials are made to teach us how to stay with each other or go out and find our own ways...apart. If good things are memories, what are bad ones? it's still a memory. just a bad one! But those bad ones can bring smile to us when we know what we have done wrong. Or it can be hatred to people. Depends on the situation how bad it is. I think it can also be trials, to test our loyalty or faith and love to each other... How are things with you and your bf now? Have you seen each other and talk things so far? I hope things will come smoothly... Stay calm and talk to him in a good way. Starting things with loud voice can lead to being mad and annoyed that will make you more angry at each other. Be sure to know what you both want...

True, we can feel like there's something that has been pulled out of our chest that makes us hard to breathe and feel like empty. Sometimes we have to breathe and think of happy things that we may love to do just to avoid thinking of those people we miss. Yes, there can be tough times we don't know how to fill in and what to fill it with when something is quite missing in our own selves. It just takes time for us to realize and accept the fact that things go naturally and we have to move on and learn to face life with or without people with us...

Memories make up most of our life. We can't possibily see everyone at every time in our lives, and our memories help us to remember good and sad times with them. Just try to remember the good over the bad and be thankful to have had them in your life for the time that you did.

I do believe people do come and go, in and out of our lives. Even if we don't like to part our ways to them, we have to cause we all have dreams and we have to go with it with or without the people we have in the present time. I know that memories spent with them can be treasured for a lifetime. Though good or bad it is, what matters is that we have shred something together and it would last ...in our memories,heart and mind. We just have to pray for them to be safe always and hope time will come, we'll meet again and be happy again...
