Missing You Day

It's okay to say you miss someone.

Missing You Day falls on 20 February, the sixth day of Anti-Valentine Week, and gives space to a feeling the rest of the week doesn't always allow — simply missing someone, whether an ex, a crush or a relationship that didn't work out. Read our Quotes and Shayari for the day.

It is dedicated to acknowledging the ache of separation — missing someone who is far away, someone from the past, or a relationship that has ended — giving people an occasion to openly express that longing.
Is there a formal history behind it?
Like the rest of Anti-Valentine Week, it has no official founding body or historical event; it grew as an informal, socially popularized tradition alongside Valentine's Week, gaining traction through greeting culture and social media.
How do people typically mark the day?
People often reach out to someone they miss or express their feelings through writing, sharing Shayari about longing and distance, or posting Quotes that capture the feeling of missing someone.

Coming right after Confession Day and just before Breakup Day, it's often described as the most relatable day of the week, since it encourages reflection rather than suppressing emotion. Many people use it to reconnect, even briefly, with someone from their past. Share a Status to express how you feel.
