in olden days .. if you "missed" someone.. you wrote "letters" to them...
miss+give....give this letter to the miss
MISSIVE sounds like MISS+EVE(occasion)...i.e when u miss someone on a eve,u write a LETTER to convey(ur love).
missiLe is for a Villain and missiVe is for a Lover.. Now note the letters in caps(L and V) alone.. Just interchanged :) missiLe->Villain and missiVe->Lover.!!
MISS+U....when you miss your girlfriend...what will you do???....you will write a love LETTER.....
