Grammar
I have missed you a lot.
When I meet someone who I have not met for a long time, which one is natural?
1) I miss you a lot.
2) I missed you a lot.
3) I have missed you a lot.
I think that #3 is natural and correct in grammar but all of them are used commonly in the same context for the same meaning. What do you native English speakers think?
Thank you so much as always and have a good day.

Sometimes I notice that the first one being used among girls and their boyfriends. How do I convince them that this is an incorrect English expression, please?.

Odessa DawnHow do I convince them that this is an incorrect English expressionIt isn’t. I miss you is possible if the speaker and the addressee are still separated and are communicating by, e.g., phone, but it would be an unusual thing to say to someone who is no longer absent.
