14 Miss You Cards to Send Your Long Distance Best Friends

You’ve shared some of your proudest moments with your bestie and now they live miles and miles away. So many miles, in fact, that it’s impossible to see each other every day the way you’re used to. Actually, you haven’t seen each other in months or maybe even years — but your friendship is still as strong as ever. Friendships like these don’t come around often so it’s up to you (and your best friend) to keep in touch and keep the friendship going. What could you possibly do when you’re miles and miles (and miles) apart? For starters, you should let your bff know just how much you miss them. It’s the most obvious thing to do.

Either way, sending miss you cards will brighten your best friend’s day and you can have fun picking out the right card.
