“Missing you” is a common expression that conveys a feeling of longing or sadness when someone you care about is not present. It typically means that you wish that the person you care about was with you, and you feel a sense of emptiness or sadness in their absence. It can also imply a strong emotional connection or attachment to the person you miss. This expression is often used in the context of romantic relationships, friendships, or even missing someone who has passed away.
