thinking about
Dwelling on mentally
Thinking about signals that someone or something is on your mind, often with consideration toward action: I'm thinking about moving to Denver, She's been thinking about what you said.
It ranges from idle musing to serious deliberation.
Thinking about you expresses affection or concern—letting someone know they occupy your thoughts.
