7 Memes To Send Your Partner When You Miss Them & You Want To Let Them Know

by Alison Segel

I love to date unavailable men who travel a lot! It's my favorite hobby! But with that comes a lot of struggles. For example, you never see the person you care about, and you miss them a lot. Also, you're forming a relationship with someone who is chronically busy, and texting them all the time seems more burdensome than cute. So what's the solution? Well, why not try some memes to send your partner when you miss them? They're adorbs as hell, they don't take up a lot of time, and they still get your message across. A picture can be better than words anyway, right?

For example, an ex of mine was a musician who was always on the road — touring, recording, that whole deal. Fortunately, I love my alone time, but keeping in touch was tricky since he was not only constantly working, but traveling as well, which made for some confusing time changes. You know what kept us happy, connected, and laughing? MEMES! A meme a day keeps the breakup away. Granted, we are broken up now, but it helped for a while.

So here are some memes to send your partner when you miss them and want to let them know. You know what I meme?

1. When You Want To Know How They're Doing

Sad puppy just wants to know what's up.

2. When You Think They Don't Miss You Back

Didn't you just love when Katy Perry decided to live stream her meltdown for some reason? Very brave and also #insane. But some good content did come from it. For example, this meme of Katy in the fetal position in satin pajamas, having deep and most likely sad thoughts on a rouge set of stairs.

ANYWAY, THE POINT IS if you miss your crush, but you think your crush might not miss you back, saying exactly that verbatim is probably not the best look. A little too aggressive, right? Send them this meme instead, and let sad Katy do all the talking for you.

3. When You Wanna Know What They're Up To

Awww, Kermie.

You ever want to know what someone is up to after not hearing from them for a while, but don't want to text them saying, "I HAVEN'T HEARD FROM YOU IN A MINUTE, WHAT THE F*CK ARE YOU DOING?"

Send them this meme instead. It's way more *~cHiLL~*.

4. When They Don't Answer Your Call

I don't know how this weird taxidermy'd cat (is that even what I'm looking at?) came into existence as a meme, but I like it. This is the perfect pic to send someone if you miss their call, and then, they don't answer you when you call them back.

My best girl friend travels constantly for work (she's a producer on a reality show) and sometimes, she'll FaceTime me on her short breaks. If I miss her call, there's a 99.9 percent chance she won't pick up when I call her back. Basically, I'm gonna save this meme for her.

5. When You're Afraid To Let Them Know You Care

I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you. I swear I don't miss you.

6. When You Can't Do Anything About The Distance

When you want to see someone immediately but can't, it's a soul-aching, frustrating feeling. If hopping on a plane isn't an option, text this meme instead. It's kind of the same thing or something.

7. When You Don't Wanna Be A Bother

Lots of Kermit memes going around. I guess that's a thing now?

If you don't want to bother your significant other with a text, or don't quite know what words to say, then send them a meme instead. A picture is worth a thousand words, after all.
