We often forget that Spike is an orphan. Twilight may care for him, but she has never acted as his parent. Their relationship is not parent/child apart from at the extremes.

Not so much imagknary parents but the thought of his parents and the potential relationship that comes with a theoretical relationship with this idealized hypothetical parents his mind may have conjured up.

It could be he misses the concept of his parents. He may have never knew them but he can still imagine. Maybe Spike’s imagination’s conjured a vision of his parents and he misses that imagined version of them even if that false version of them isn’t real.

The Cynical Art Critic
Spike never met his parents. How could he miss them if he never knew they existed. That would be less ‘missing’ and more ‘wanting parents’ which Twi seems to be more than capable of being. (Except when she abuses him… Even if on accident most of the time.)
