i miss...

so there really are no good synonomous phrases for "i miss you" in a platonic sense. all the words i can find are along the lines of covet, desire, crave, brood, carry a torch, mourn, sigh.


yeah, i'm going to tell a good female friend "i covet you." she would laugh her ass off and it still wouldn't accurately portray what i am feeling.


why is it the english language does not have any good phrases or cliches that say "i haven't seen you in ages and i miss you" without you saying the tired phrase of "i miss you."


this should change.


also realized today that i seem to have a threshold for how long i jarringly miss someone. this seems to be around 3 weeks. i miss them a ton for that length of time and then it starts to fade. i miss them off and on for ever after that, but that yearn to spend time with them isn't constant or even what it was when they were around.  i wonder if everyone does that or if it's just me.


and my job gives my mind free reign to think of random crap like this.


i'm spending entirely too much time with myself. can i spend some time with you?
