What does it mean when you miss someone?

My overall situation is ridiculously complicated so I won’t go into that just now (we may be here all day :)) Gross oversimplification but when you miss someone who is dead you just want them to be alive so you can see them, talk to them and tell them how you feel. However I wonder what the consensus is on whether it is possible to miss someone (who is alive) an incredible amount, so much that it hurts right in your soul…or "somewhere at about a height of 4 feet in a 6 feet body from ground deep inside your rib cage" and it still be the right thing to do not to get in touch with them? What does it mean when you miss someone that much? What are you telling yourself?

I miss many persons - and mostly they are my ex-students. I feel for them a lot because till now I believe those were the golden days of my life! I enjoyed a lot sharing time with them. But for people, who have passed away, I miss them a lot. But I have never felt the urge to meet them in real life.

You can talk to the person that is gone, they are only gone in the body..not their soul or essence is not gone. You may speak to them and they hear you. I trully believe this. I also think of the good times we had and the person they were in the physical body that I could see when they were in it. I can't touch them, but I know they are there if I call on them. In the other realm they can move at the blink of an eye to anywhere they wish to go. Try not to grieve for them but talk just as they are there because they can be if you'll just allow them to be.

It's the human condition to never do anything with out there being some benefit to ones self. Basic Psychology. So I guess you have to ask yourself why do you have this attachment? Write down your thoughts then leave it alone for a time. When you go back to it you may have the answer you seek.

It id grief thats what that is and it is worse at christmas,birthdays,holidays,ect and it hurts like mad,I lost my mum in April I understand anyone who is going through this as nothing can bring them back and you have to carry on ,and it will get better ,so I am told.You are telling yourself you loved them and miss them.life is a stuggle to get through but you must live on,as life is for the living and rest assured you are not the only one feeling like this and it is perfectly normal,maybe some sort of councilling or a good friend to talk to.
