advise needed

i am just about to wrtie out my bessies christmas card and last year she wrote a lovley message in it about how much of a great mate i had been as she moved away

now i wanna tell her thanx for being a great mate and cheering me up when i was depressed and also thanc for standing by me when all hell broke loose and also that i miss her and hope we will stay in contact

shall i write a message or just write my name on it and not be all silly she might not be bothered either way!

arghhhh its annoying i have so much i can say its stuck in my brain!! ive got to much in my mind at the moment

how can i say the message without sounding boring and like im banging on about umimportant stuff? and sounding like a dweeb

Write what comes naturally. Tell her you miss her and hope to always stay in contact, say you appreciate things shes done for you and for been there for you etc.

im sure she will appreciate it.

my friend told me "thanks for being a great friend" and it was cool.

so, go for it!
I'd say go for it too. It'll help get all those thoughts out of your head and I'm sure it'll bring a smile to her face when she reads it.

well ill be standing in front of her when she reads it so should i just say it lol

i said i didn;t want her to buy me a pressie but her bro told me she did bless her the only person this year who has bothered!!
You could just say it but maybe it would be nice for her to see it written down, that way she can look back on it at a later time. She sounds like a really good friend so it might be nice for her to actually see how much you appreciate her in writing. (I'm not saying you don't show it!) Also, it can sometimes be easier to express your feelings in writing - don't know if this applies to you or not but I certainly find this to be the case for me.

i wrote her a really long letter when i was depressed and i felt so much better for it even if it was crap and abit boring lol
Well do you think that maybe writing in the card will make you feel better? If you think so then maybe do that. Don't worry about her thinking it sounds boring, it's never boring to hear from someone you care about that they miss you or appreciate you.
