I’ve decided to write a letter to an old friend I haven’t talked to in years.  How do I start it out?

You can start your letter by telling him that you read in the paper about his mother. Give him your condolences, and then tell him how time had taken your paths away. And just share with him a little of how you are now, and maybe ask him how he's doing? And I'm sure he would be happy to hear from you. Hope this works.

i would say just write it from the heart, dont try and sound posh or use big words if this is out of character it wont be so meaningful then. start by writing down on paper all the advantages of being out  and make the letter from the list.  hope it helps. let us know how he gets on

Mabye you can write her a letter, apologizing & telling her how you feel.\nNot sure how many years have passed, but she may not be willing to meet you in person.  A nice closure letter would suffice, as long as you end it nicely & don't expect anything in return.\nI know I would appreciate hearing from an ex years later....especially if it was someone who hurt me.

write a love note and send it through a trusted friend with your contact email address

Try writing her a heart felt letter.  That way you can respect her wishes of not talking to her and she can open and deal with the letter when SHE is ready to.\n\nMake sure she knows that you care so much for her that you thought it would be good to take a new direction, but you don't feel attached to the idea, just her friendship.\n\nDont rush her on it.

you and my girlfriend have something in common. She knows what it is like to be in your shoes. Her one time friend was my ex-girfriend. After my ex and I split up a year after, I began seeing the girl i am with now. we have been together for almost a year now. I posted a question on this subject a while back. \nto answer your question... I think a letter is a good way to start. If you were to approach her, pride might keep her from listening to what you have to say with open arms. If you send her a letter, she can read what you feel in privacy... without having to be forced to control her emotions and her curiousity will allow you to get everything out to her. Then its up to her of course.

Make sure that over the years you make the effort to keep in touch with him.  Sometimes as years go by we get involved in our own lives and forget to keep in touch with old friends.  If you make sure that you keep in touch your friendship will be everlasting.  I'm 46 and I have three very close friends that I've known (one I've known from the day she was born...I was six months old...the other has known me since the day I was born...and the other has been my friend since 1st grade) so it is possible. I still keep in touch with many friends from high school.

Personal/Character reference letters are the hardest to write.    Your job is to market/sell your friend, and it must be written very well to accomplish its \n\nI'e provided a link below that is a good place to start.  I wish you the best of luck!

Awwww, I feel so bad for you.  I think you send her a heartfelt email and tell her how you feel.  Although I'm pretty sure she knows this but tell her the same things you told us.  Tell her that you have no friends, you have no one to talk to, you confided in her and now she will not speak or respond to you, tell her you miss her and that she's like a big sister to you.  Tell her how much she has made a difference in your life.  I'm pretty sure this should get her attention.  Don't be rude to her, that's probably the reason why she's distanced herself from you in the first place.  My guess is that you've done it before.  Tell her that you are not giving up on her or the friendship and keep trying your best to reach her.  Be honest.  Tell her exactly how you feel.  Hopefully I was able to capture your feelings because it was obvious to me that you really care for her and really miss her.  And if that's the case, she needs to know.

Be casual.  Just email her and say hey and you thought you would drop her a line (and so on and so forth) and let the emailing begin!

Write her a letter or buy a card if you find a suitable one. Tell her how you're going to miss her, you think she's cool, you want to stay friends, etc etc and leave your e-mail or something so she can contact you.

The SSA will forward a letter for you, but it has to be important - like you are bearing his child or are his long-lost brother or something; not just "Hi, I miss you". Search their site for "Letter forwarding".
