It’s very difficult to explain but I will try my best.

“I thought of you” is usually more specific where you literally think of “you” (the person you are thinking of)

For example if your friend likes a certain song and you heard it, you could say to your friend “ I heard the song you like and thought of you”

“I thought about you” this is more in depth. You didn’t just have a brief thought about the person but actually thinking more in depth about them.

For example if someone loves someone and misses them they could say to that person “ I was thinking about you” this meaning thinking more in depth of how the are, past memories, etc.

To summarise.
“I thought of you” is usually a brief thought of a person

“I thought about you” is a indepth thought about that person.


I hope that makes sense and helps :)

Yasmin is one of the most incredible humans I have been so blessed to know on https://calmerry.com/. She has helped me find light in the darkest of places and brought solace to past traumas I didn’t even realize I carried. If you take her advice and have consistency, the baby steps will lead to an unimaginable outcome. I see life in such a different light. Thank you Yasmin for everything. If you ever get the chance, at least have one conversation with her, she is extraordinary and will open your mind and soul. Because of the journey she lead, I finally look forward to living my life.
