if you heard them, or communicated with them, you can miss their company and words. so it is possible

communication in any way even if you live in on the opposite part of the planet from them, would still make you miss them if you havent talked to them in a long time. everyone has diff personalities, and youd be missing their personality

Ive missed people I have had comunication with but never met.
I think missing someone youve never met is actually more of a yearning for a type of person you want to meet to help fulfill you

No, how can you. Do you know this person and if so how much. Are they famous, a lost family member that you don’t know, or just some random person. If it dosen’t have anything to do with you, then why bother worrying about it.

If a person was to put his/her soul into their art form,. I.E. music, films, etc. Could you get to know that person so well that you felt like friends, even though you have never met them? If so, then wouldn’t it possible to miss them when they weren’t there.

Maybe a child that a mother never had… This is more tricky.. no one on the face of the earth has ever known this child, but yet, the parent misses her.

Absolutely,

story tellers years ago before tv was ever in told stories to entertain,pure human entertainment.and the stories they told ,whether of folk heroes or people who met their maker,you would love one chance to meet them. they touched your life and awakened something in you,curiousity or whatever.so yes you can miss someone you’ve never met.sorry i get carried away

I would say no…sorry, quite a blunt answer but for me at least I can only miss someone I’ve been attached to and I don’t get attached to people I don’t know personally. Although there is a contradiction there as I do have some idols and what not so it’d be interesting were one of them to be lost..
