Why do we miss people?

[Carolyn Duncan]

The reason why we miss people is really not all that deep. It's an attachment to activities and actions. you get the same feeling of missing a significant other as you would a freind who moves. It has to do with your actions then there are no actions. For example, if you called you grandmother everyday for 1 week, same time everyday and talked to her for 1 hour, then on the 8th day you didn't call her for that hour you would wander around trying to figure out what to do. It's an emotional attachment to contact. To be honest it's because you get bored, that's why when you do other things to "keep your mind occupied" you don't realize that you miss that person until you stop doing things, ie you get bored. That wasn't meant to sound negative or mean, but that's just life sometimes...
