Affectionate message to someone who is away, common between partners, family members and close friends, especially in long-distance relationships and during college breaks.

Example: Imy so much, can't wait for winter break.

Usage notes

Popular among teens and long-distance couples. Variants include imysm (I miss you so much). Warm in tone and a common late-night text, but too personal for anything work-related.
