When you miss someone do you ever think that you shouldn't because if they cared they would still be around?

maybe i shouldnt miss them because of how they treated me in the last two years of our friendship, and how i felt abandoned by her the day my mom died, although we were hardly friends by that point and she didn't think she could do anything for me so she left me for her boyfriend. but we were little girls together and all my anger i have let go. her baby was born in october i think. i hope she has the peace in her family she has always desperately wanted, and can find herself to forgive the people who she she holds so much anger for

Yes. But you miss them anyway

all the time
i just let it go through me

Hmm, not really. I know how life is and how people drift apart. I also know that they're not the same people today that they were then, just like I'm not either. No telling whether we'd still be friends even if we were in touch.

I've thought that before, but not for a long time now. The people I miss most, are no longer in this world.

No. I’m fully okay to miss them cuz I do. I won’t ignore my feelings or say “I shouldn’t miss them.”

Yes, but I miss them anyway. Honestly it’s their loss.

No... We come into the world alone - and we leave alone. Those that we meet in the meantime are not meant to stay for the rest of time.

It's not about caring or not caring, sometimes, our journey together just reaches it's conclusion.

@AnnabelleLeigh 🤔no nothing wrong on your part with a bit of sentiment for those who have been and gone in your world . i suppose you can wish it could of been different but things happen sadly🤷‍♂

I miss them because I miss them. Those are my feelings. It's not transactional upon how they feel.

No, but that is a sadly and painfully true thing to say.

The only people I really miss now are those who aren’t in my life anymore because they can’t be. With those who could but choose not to, missing them for too long is wasted energy. 🥺

Yeah
Will probably always miss them to some extent

If they wanted to be in my life still they would.

Yes and that’s okay

Yes

it’s okay to miss ppl.. and no one rly owes us anything.
