Understanding the Psychology of Missing Someone

Missing someone is a natural and powerful emotional response that occurs when we’re separated from something or someone important to us.

But how can we use this psychology to make a guy miss us?

The key lies in creating a strong emotional connection and attraction. These two things will not only make him feel attached to you, they will be the glue that keeps you two together long-term.

When we’re emotionally attached to someone, we feel a sense of loss when they’re not around. This sense of loss fuels our longing for their presence and makes us miss them like crazy.

So, how do we create this sense of attachment in a man?

We will address this in the 10 steps below.

But first, let’s address one important principle: the concept of balancing showing interest and giving him space.

Because if you let that go out of whack, nothing else will fall into place.

How to Make Him Miss You Without Losing Him? (Use Balance: Give Him Space and Show Interest)

Finding the right balance between giving him space and showing interest is essential to make him miss you without driving him away.

If you show too much interest, he may see that as a sign that you’re low value. While giving him too much space could make him lose interest.

So, how can you strike the perfect balance?

  • Start by giving him some breathing room and focusing on your own life.
  • Don’t meet all your needs through him and put yourself first.
  • Don’t always rush to say “yes” when he asks you out. Think carefully about when you’re available to him.

To show interest, allow yourself to initiate contact while letting him know (through your actions) that you’re not just waiting around for him.

  • Allow him to get to know you bit by bit as you meet – don’t lay all your cards on the table. Don’t give away every little thing out of fear of losing him.
  • It’s ok to show a little jealousy to let him know you care and are paying attention.
  • Be yourself. Create your own path and own the journey.
  • Give him some time for himself and show him how amazing you are when he’s around.
  • Remember, don’t worry too much, don’t control too much and let things happen as they will.

Final tip about finding the perfect balance:

Don’t over-control things. It’s when you try too hard to control things that this balance is messed up.

Aside from upsetting the balance, women who try hard to control things will find that this strangles their natural feminine energy.

Feminine energy is naturally out of control, because it exists in flow. 

Without this feminine energy (and with predominantly controlling, masculine energy), you will risk making him think you’re low value.

Because men and women perceive value very differently and you don’t want to be making mistakes that would cause quality men to dismiss, abandon or alienate you.) 

#1: Create Unforgettable Memories Together

Obviously this one is only applicable if you are already at least dating him.

But one way to make him miss you is to create unforgettable memories together by doing something new and exciting that will stay in his memory.

This can involve trying new things together and being each other’s firsts in those new experiences.

  • Go see a musical or theatre show together
  • Go to a theme park
  • Learn a new sport together

Additionally, leaving something that will remind him of you, like your favorite book or a piece of clothing, could spark his memories of all the fun times you shared and make him start to miss you.

#2: Utilize the Power of Scent

Scent is a powerful memory trigger and can play a huge role in making a man miss you.

To harness this power, try wearing a specific perfume every time you see him and leave a shirt of yours at his place that he can smell when he’s missing you.

However, be careful not to overpower your natural feminine scent with perfume, as it can be a turn off for men.

Creating a signature scent is crucial because smells can bring back memories and evoke emotions, even when you’re not around.

By consistently wearing a particular scent, you can establish a strong connection between that smell and your presence, making him think of you every time he encounters that fragrance.

Leaving your belongings at his place can also have a similar effect, as your stuff will likely carry your scent! He will notice the smell and begin to miss you.

Just be mindful not to do it too often, or he might think you’re careless or disrespecting his personal space.

Or if he’s a clean freak and likes things tidy, he might be annoyed by it if you leave too many things around.

As always, balance is key.

How to make him miss you

#3: Embrace Your Sense of Identity Outside of The Relationship

Maintaining your sense of identity outside of the relationship is vital to make your man miss you more and not be clingy or needy.

Having the ability to be happy alone and pursue the things that you want to contribute to the world is the key to make him miss you when you are apart.

Be someone with substance, in other words. Don’t rely on only your man to meet your needs.

You’re special and there’s a lot you can do for the world, and more importantly, the people you love.

There’s a lot you can achieve, if you want to. Put your energy into those things. Trust that you obsessing about him won’t make him any less likely to stick around.

It’s who you are that makes him stick around. So what is your identity?

How would you describe yourself and the gifts you have to offer the world?

At the very least, make sure to find joy within yourself, as this joy rubs off on him and it will give him something to be nostalgic about later.

Moreover, it’s essential to stay true to yourself when trying to make him miss you because pretending to be someone else could have the opposite effect.

#4: Pursue Your Own Unique Passions

Similar but not the same as having your own identity outside of the relationship is having passions.

Something that lights you up.

Pursuing your unique passions can be a powerful way to make him miss you, as it shows that you have a life outside of him.

Engaging in new experiences and learning new skills can cultivate your inner passion and make you more interesting and attractive to him.

For example, joining a writing, dancing, acting or photography class can help you develop more dimensions to yourself and become more attractive to him.

To prioritize your passions, try carving out 15-20 minutes each day to focus on it.

This could involve reading, writing, or learning something new related to your interests.

To stay motivated, set mini goals for yourself and treat yourself when you hit certain milestones.

This way, you’ll not only make him miss you, but also grow as a person.

#5: Spend Time with Your Girlfriends (To Build Feminine Energy)

Spending time with your girlfriends is an excellent way to build feminine energy and make him miss you more.

After all, you cant spend time with predominantly men and expect to grow your feminine energy!

You can express yourself to other women without worrying about a guy’s opinion as well as having fun, and just being yourself.

Plus, you can use social media to make him miss you by posting stories when you go out with friends, showing that you have a life independent of him and you don’t need his time and attention.

It makes him wonder about what fun you’ve been up to, who made you laugh and what mischief you and the girls get up to!

Having a good time without him can make him miss you, as it shows him that you have an independent, fun-loving, and outgoing personality.

You can also add to the mystery in your personality by not talking or texting him too much when you’re out with your friends having a good time.

This will create a sense of longing, making him miss you (and enjoy you!) even more.

#6: Build Emotional Connection

Building an emotional connection is crucial if you want him to miss you. This involves:

Kindness and appreciation are also essential to emotional connection, as these are proven to be desirable traits in a mate.

Without such kindness, he will have less attachment to you and be less inclined to miss you like crazy.

This will strengthen the bond between you and make him miss you even more.

Remember, a strong emotional connection is the foundation of any healthy and long-lasting relationship.

#7: Build Emotional Attraction Through High Value Banter

Building emotional attraction through high-value banter can be an effective way to make him miss you.

High-value banter involves having fun in conversation, teasing, and joking in a safe and playful atmosphere.

You can establish an emotional connection through flirty texts when you banter with each other.

The good news is that banter is something you can use for the rest of your life with a man. He will never (and I really mean never, get bored of you).

Here’s a FREE class on high value banter. You’ll get access to plenty of free scripts and examples you can start using with your man today!

Engaging in playful banter can create an irreplaceable connection and attachment to you.

It can also spark a guy’s interest and make him miss you when you’re not around.

It’s a great way to keep things exciting. Just be careful – it’s meant to be playful communication. Do not cross the line and hurt his feelings, as this can have the opposite effect.

#8: Use The Art of Flirting and Playfulness

Using the art of flirting and playfulness can make him miss you even more.

  • Tease him
  • Smile
  • Give a cheeky wink
  • Use push and pull communication in a playful, flirty way; and
  • Reminisce on the fun times you’ve shared together

This will create a sense of longing and desire, making him miss you like crazy.

Additionally, don’t be afraid to send him playful messages – when he’s not too busy.

By keeping him on his toes, you’ll ensure that he misses you and can’t wait to see you again.

#9: Cultivate A Sense of Feminine Mystery

Cultivating a sense of feminine mystery is another way to make him miss you. This involves:

  • Having an essence of natural feminine radiance
  • Being multi-faceted and high value
  • Leaving certain things unsaid
  • Honing intuition; and
  • Embracing your feminine energy.

For instance, not revealing everything about yourself, letting your natural unpredictability shine through, and having an air of mystery are all examples of feminine mystery.

By taking your time and letting him discover all of your amazing qualities bit by bit, you’ll create a sense of intrigue and desire, making him miss you even more.

Plus, having a sense of mystery will keep him interested and excited about the relationship.
