"I miss you" is either early-relationship warmth or a test to see how you respond. Overshooting with "I miss you SO much" reads desperate. Underplaying reads cold. The move: acknowledge + escalate to action (a plan).

FAQ

How fast should I say it back?

If you mean it, within the same message. If you don't yet, acknowledge without echoing: "miss seeing you too" lands softer without committing to the same weight.

Is it bad that I say it first?

No. Saying it first shows confidence in the feeling. The problem isn't who says it first — it's whether the other person reciprocates within a few messages.
