The guy I have liked is moving away and I want to give him a letter expressing my wishes for him, but I'm have some doubts about doing that. I was also thinking of including a mix cd of his favorite band. But I need some opinions. Would this be to a bad idea? Should I continue with this? Or should I plan something else? Any advice would be appreciated. Reply to this Question

 Writing a letter is not considered way too much.
Depends how much you like him and want to show your care.
If he's worth a letter, do it ;)
another idea could be, writing something in a farewell card. Thats cute too.
a mix cd is a great idea, whenever he listens to it he'll think of you! :)

 Hello,
It depends...are you close friends? Do you spend a lot of time together? It's hard to say if it would be too much. To be honest the best person to judge that is you. Go with what your gut feeling tells you.
If you are really unsure of what to do then just go to him in person and say that you will miss him and that you wish him the best.
Good Luck! (And don't worry too much about overdoing it...he's moving away so the chances of you seeing him again is unlikely.)

You know the sort of thing:"Dear Fred,"With you moving away I thought this could be a good time to release my Inner Nana and see if it is true that the skill of letter writing is part of the global womanly heritage. "Of course I've now thrust the manly role in letter writing upon you. So you'll have to dash off a few lines in response as you rush about in the back of a limo on your way to your next appointment/solving crimes/arranging stylish diamond heists/whatever. Sorry about that. If it's any consolation I believe my role is to then to read your letter in a rocking chair in front of a fire and look for deep meaning in every hurried word."And so on.The thing about letters is that they can travel anywhere in the USA for the price of going across town. So you can start a correspondence even though he is far away. So don't think of it as writing one letter, but as writing the first letter.
