It depends on the context. Sometimes we miss the person and their aspects but other times that connection is very important.

Sometimes it is hard to tell if you miss the person you were with, or the memories you two shared together. Try and think about what it is that you miss most, and takes notes and write them down. By doing so it can be easier for you to decipher what it is you really do miss.

More than likely you miss the relationship and have the feeling of belonging and the feeling of being wanted by someone

If I'd be honest I miss the relationship with the person. Neither can stand alone cause they're interdependent.

When we fall for someone, we often wear rose colored glasses... meaning everything they do seems better than it really is and they can do no wrong! When we are looking back at relationships, which if you will remember, ended for whatever reason, I feel like a natural part of the mourning process is focusing on all of the good and fun things you guys had together and did. And that's all fine and well, but some relationships are supposed to end. Remember why it did and realize that even if it doesn't feel like it right now, you will meet someone much more wonderful and suited for you down the road.

I don't believe its either. Although, i don't doubt that i can be one or the other. Some do miss the person but don't want the relationship and some miss the comfort of being with someone, but they don't want to be with that particular person. I think we miss the memories and the feelings they gave us the most. It can be very conflicted and confusing. Stay positive and always focus on the best you can be to move forward

Once a relationship gets over there is a reason behind it as they say...they are your "ex" for a reason we do miss them but the person they use to be during the initial period of relationship we miss those good moments we had with them

It depends on the situation. Sometimes, if the person really shaped who you are, you may miss the person. But sometimes, you may miss the intimacy, and the things you did together that you don't do now. You'll only ever know if you go out with them again.

It really depends on the relationship, however more often than not we grow attached to a particular someone because they give us everything we need emotionally. And once again more often than not, we miss the things they provided us rather than the actual person themselves, we miss the sex, the late night talks, all that mushy stuff. We just become so reliant on this one person to give this to us, that when it's taken away we almost lose a part of ourselves.....shame it's only an illusion.
