How to get your friends back?
如何重拾旧日友情
Send a Handwritten Card
寄张手写贺卡
A note in the mail can be a welcome surprise for a friend you haven't spoken to in a while. And there's no need to wait until a holiday for an excuse to send it; a "just because" card can restart your relationship anytime.
对许久不联系的朋友来说,一封突如其来的信绝对是个惊喜。并非只有假期才能寄卡片,因为一张“问候卡”能立即拉近你们的关系。
Women are busy and don't want to feel that the friendship comes with too many strings attached.
女人身上的负担很繁重,她们不喜欢压力太大的友情。
So avoid mentioning the past or specific dates when you're available to meet up. Instead, leave the message open-ended, explaining that you're available for lunch or drinks in the next couple of weeks, she says. And remind her of the best way to contact you.
因此,不要在卡片里跟对方约某月某日某时的具体见面事项,而应该婉转地提出自己未来几周都有空、想约她出来吃顿饭或者喝杯咖啡,并顺便附上自己的联系方式。这样更好。
