Missing someone feels very painful. It’s also a lonely experience. You think of them often, all the time. And the more you try not to think of them, the more you end up doing just that. And sometimes, you can’t help but wonder, are there any signs to know if someone misses you as much as you miss them?

But if you understand how to know if someone misses you, it provides a small shred of comfort, knowing they feel it too. Of course, there may be many reasons that make you miss someone. It could be they moved far away. Or you were in a relationship and now you are not. But one comforting thing is knowing they also miss you too. If you’re looking for specific signs with respect to your ex, check out the 16 signs your ex misses you and desperately wants you back along with these signs to know if they miss you that we’ve shared here.

How to know if someone is missing you

If the other person feels the same way and shows any of these signs they miss you too, then you can make amends and find a way to get together again. So, how do you know if someone misses you? Here are 17 signs that make it pretty clear.

1. What’s your social media status?

If someone hated your guts, they would just remove you from all their social media channels, right? They’d unfollow you, block you and totally ignore you. If they aren’t doing that, it’s probably because they want to keep track of you. They keep looking at your pictures and still have that connection with you, so they can try to get in touch if they want to, and you can with them too.

2. Have they left space for hope, or are they filling your space?

If you’re looking for signs to know if someone misses you, you should remember that someone ready to move on from you would be out there in the world seeking a replacement! If they haven’t found anyone else, it’s probably because they still pine after you and hope you’ll reconnect. Of course, there’s a chance they may hook up with a rebound just to get over you. But if they choose to go down this path, you should walk away too. They’re doing everything in their power to forget you. So if burning the bridges with you is the path they’ve chosen, accept it and walk on. [Read: At what exact point does an ex start to miss you? The bittersweet truth revealed]
