7 Clues To Know What He Actually Means When He Says He Misses You

"I miss you so much." "I can't stop thinking about you." Yeah, we’ve all heard those lines before. Now, I don’t want to be the Debbie Downer, but I’ve met many guys who used that line without actually meaning it. And you know, I’ve said “I miss you” to people that I don’t necessarily miss. What can I say, people are dicks. And really, how do you know it’s real when a guy says he misses you?

But, this isn’t about the things you’ve said in the past. That’s over and done. Now, focus only on the present. Sure, he tells you he misses you, but there are ways to see if he’s really just full of crap or not. No one wants to be heartbroken. So, when a guy says he misses you, make sure you’re not getting sucked into his games.

It feels nice to hear it, but when a guy says he misses you, does he actually? Here are the signs you need to look out for, to know for sure if he means what he says! If this guy is doing any of these things, and telling you he misses you, for sure, this guy IS really missing you and not faking it!

# He doesn’t overdo it

If a guy constantly tells you he misses you, he may be genuine, but it’s not coming across as that. If someone really misses you, they’re not going to tell you that 100 times a day.

To tell someone you miss them, it’s emotional. If it’s genuine, they’re not going to cheapen their feelings by repeating it all the time.

# He’s constantly in contact with you

Even if you two have nothing to talk about, he still writes you, “what’s up.” I mean, is that really necessary? Of course not, but the guy misses you and wants to keep the conversation going. He’ll probably ask you some non-important question or talk about the weather, but he’s trying to keep the connection.

# You Skype or Face Time

If he’s Skyping, Whatsapping, or FaceTiming you, he wants to see you. Sure, you can text or voice message, but going from that to a video call shows that he wants to see you. He misses your face, he misses your smile and your laugh. He can’t help it that he loves your face. I wouldn’t FaceTime a guy if he was just a friend—what’s the point?

# He’s all over your social media

He likes your statuses and photos or maybe he doesn’t, but you see him creeping on your Snapchat and Instagram stories. Even if he’s not in the position to like your posts, he’s following what you’re doing. We all do this when we miss someone. We want to know what they’re doing and who they’re seeing.

# He talks about seeing you

When a guy misses you, he wants to see you. In fact, he talks about wanting to see you all the time. Now, this is a good sign, however, there have been so many men that have told me that they’re going to come to see me and nothing ever happened. So, when a guy says he misses you, and backs it up with visible effort to try and meet you, that means something.

# He actually plans to see you

Okay, so talking about it is sweet, but making the effort to come and see you even if you’re far away is the real deal. It’s a big step actually. It really shows that what he feels is true. Many guys talk, but most don’t walk the talk.

# He may turn into a homebody

When you’re sad, the odds are you’re less likely to go out and socialize. You just want to stay home and watch movies. Maybe you’ve noticed that he hasn’t gone out much and that he’s pulling away from his friends. Why is this?He misses you and he’s sad that he’s not with you.
