Do I miss the person, or the relationship?

In the beginning soon after the breakup I think we overlook all the problems we had with our exes and miss them for the good that they brought to our lives, as little as it was, but then later when we have already processed most of our feelings, it is the feeling of being in a relationship that we miss, or at least that's the conclusion I've reached. I miss feeling secure, loved, I miss the hugs and the kisses, but I don't want to have them with my ex. :)

it depends; do you miss how you felt being with them or do you miss their presence? a lot of people will confuse the two however it all depends on what the relationship was like and HOW the person was

That's something you have to figure out on your own....often times we don't miss the person, but the feeling we had when we were with them. We fear that we will never find something that amounts to it....but trust me, everything happens for a reason and if things are meant to be, they will fall in to place exactly how they should.❤

Most of the time is missing the relationship not the person. The memories of what was in the relationship and the happiness is hard to forget. All the struggles make us grow better.

It is quite often that you'll most likely end up missing the person that they used to be. You'll often think about the memories that both of you shared and think that you miss them but we have this scenario in our heads of who we wish they were but they're nothing close to it. Don't get mixed up between who they were and who they are now.

The relationship. Most of the time when you think about someone you've dated, its not because you miss them. its because you miss how the relationship was. You reminisce on what you currently don't have in the present.

Sometimes you miss the person, other times you miss the relationship. Both are okay, it's part of moving on, you will soon learn life is more than that one person, and that one relationship.

Depends. If you miss the feeling they gave you then you miss the relationship. If you miss them then you'll probably always remember the small things they did and the qualities you liked about them.

May be you miss a bit of both? Or may be what you actually miss are those memories? The bittersweet memories of how things used to be. How caring you guys were to each other, how in love you were. Just to turn the knife a little, each moment keeps crashing into your head. May be you miss how effortless things used to be with them, how you guys used to have so much fun and how soothing the relationship was. May be you miss how they used to make you feel, all those blushes you used to get and give them. Those small moments of laughter. May be you miss the relationship which was rich in love, care and support. Or may be, you simply miss the idea of you being in love. However, that's for you to figure out.
