I'm in a sort of melancholic mood, thinking about life and such. There aren't many things I will miss, but there definitely are some.

I'll be dead. Even the things I still enjoy don't really have any meaning, they just make the bad parts suck less.

I won't exist to "miss" anything; I won't be the subject of any verb phrases.

However, I find myself occasionally filled with fond feelings about places I used to go that have since closed. The emotion grows more and more encompassing each day.

My doggie. If I still have some sort of consciousness after I die, I will always miss her from the deepest spot in my soul. No matter where I will be, no matter who I will be... I think the feeling that something is missing will always be there. But if that happens, it will not be a sad feeling, hopefully. More like bittersweet.

I will also miss coffee, good music, the cute laugh and smile of a person I knew and loved once and the anime people I love (maybe I will be reborn as one of them. A girl can dream.).

That said, I hope I am unable to miss things by virtue of not existing anymore...

This. I hardly enjoy anything as it is and the things I do enjoy are only blocking mechanisms from the shit that is life. I love my small family but I hardly see them or get the time to actually hang out with them without the inconvenience of working. I love my dog but she's getting older and she's getting depressed and bored with life just as I am, it's mutual suffering. I love dogs more than myself but I hate seeing them suffer just because I or anybody else wants to have them as pets to feel loved and not alone. I drink and do drugs to feel good and to numb out the pain but yet I would never feel any of that if I was sober. I watch movies, read books, play video games, surf the net, eat food, take long walks etc just to distract myself from the boredom and mundanity of everyday life until I die. And that's basically my life all summed up in a fucking paragraph. Fucking pathetic.

Nothing. The parts of me that would have missed something, wanted something or done something died long ago. In that respect, I'm not a person any more, and the more people insist on treating me like one the more aware I become of the hole in me.

Sorry if I wanked off too much there.

Pretty sure I'll be unable to miss anything. But in the chance there is an afterlife and I have some knowledge of this life, I'll miss some people and my pets.

After the deed, I won't miss anything. There'll be no "me" anymore. But i know what you mean, things that have positive utility to us right now. In no particular order: good sex, good food, books, video games, TV. That's about it. Now, if I were to list things with negative utility, we'd be here all day.

While I do get what you're trying to say, I'd say that part of the reason why I'm choosing to CTB is because none of those things could bring me pleasure any more. They are a distraction, and they rot too fast for me to enjoy them. The pieces of me that could have taken pleasure in aspects of this world died a slow, lonely death after being ignored and repressed for the sake of other pursuits that were supposed to provide 'higher pleasure' but became hollow in the same way. I'm not going to regret losing experiences because I don't have the ability to appreciate and enjoy them in any meaningful/lasting way anymore.

My therapist once asked me to write down what I would miss about the world. And here is what I wrote:

The feel of the weather on a crisp autumn day, and the way that sunlight bends on an autumn afternoon. The taste of mint ice cream. The smell of pine trees. The sound of applause, and me being half-embarrassed, half-proud to be the reason why people are applauding. Flowers in bloom. Pretty clothes and jewelry. Oh, so many books to read!​

I would hope that Heaven would have even better delights (assuming that I get there, of course), but we shall see.

Only the sentient can "miss" something. Once your dead that's it. What did you miss before you were born? Absolutely nothing!

Only the sentient can "miss" something. Once your dead that's it. You will be back to the same state you was at before you came to be. We are all going to die. It's just a matter of time and wether or not we want to speed up the inevitable.

Of course, there are people who believe that we existed before we were born in our current body. I do not know whether or not that is true, but if there is something about us that is sentient before birth and/or remains sentient after death, then we could indeed "miss" things about this current existence.

This is good.

What would I miss if I kept on living, but lost everything? What would I miss? That's a damn good question. It all sucks. I'd feel free of all the hell. I need fired, exiled, banished to some other life entirely.

That's why I really just need death.

I ignore if it's because today i feel extremely sensitive but i'm crying. Is so nostalgic...

I don't think the question is incoherent. There are things I am sad I will no longer be able to experience. That emotion is very similar to missing. It is almost like the anticipation of missing.

My pets - those who have passed already included. Having my hair stroked and brushed. My partner. The sea, trees, rain, just existing amidst nature - although that is a terrible source of grief too.

I will miss alot of things. Like my family and friends. I will miss my pups and even the life I used to have in a way. But I already miss these things so I guess it wont be any different if I am able to miss anything at all in the after life.

I'm going to miss books. I've only read 50 this year, and there's so many more I want to read before I pass away. It's such a small thing, but that's all I can really think of. Even now, I'm ordering books because there's so much to get through. It's kind of maddening.
