Read the full product details
English digital PDF kit: a reading guide plus printable and fillable workbooks. All three files are included. No physical item is included.
A friendship has gone quiet, and you are wondering whether a small message would be welcome. Work through the history, your purpose and the other person's boundaries before drafting anything. The guide makes room for a greeting, an invitation, a pause or no further contact, then helps you read the actual reply without turning it into a verdict on the friendship.
What you will practice
- Check whether contact is welcome. Consider the history, the channel and the other person's boundaries.
- Draft a modest invitation. Make it easy to answer, postpone or decline.
- Let the exchange guide you. Choose a next step that fits the reply, including no further contact.
What you can prepare
A contact decision and a message you can choose to send.
Fictional worked examples show the choices, outcomes and limits behind the methods. Use the prompts for your own situation without copying an example as a required answer.
Your three PDF files
- English reading guide: 29 pages.
- Printable workbook: 23 pages for writing by hand.
- Fillable workbook: 23 pages with 56 fillable fields for typing.
The printable and fillable workbooks are two ways to use the same exercises. Both formats are included; choose the one that fits the occasion.
All pages are US Letter (8.5 × 11 inches).
Choose how to use it
For handwriting, print the pages you need on US Letter paper. For typing, use a PDF reader that supports fillable forms. Before writing a longer entry, type a short test, save a copy, close it and reopen it to check that your entries remain. PDF reader behavior varies.
Draft your first hello. Return to the relevant pages when you have a real situation to try or review.
Questions before you begin
Should I send a message to every old friend?
No. Begin with the history, the current boundaries and why you want contact. Choosing not to send a message can be an appropriate result; the workbook does not treat reconnection as a required outcome.
What if the reply is brief, unclear or absent?
Separate the words you received from the meaning you added. The exercises help you choose a proportionate next step, including leaving the exchange there, without assuming the other person's motive.
Will I prepare an invitation or a full friendship plan?
Start with one contact decision and a message in your own voice. If a catch-up is mutually agreed, you can plan its practical details and review what actually happened before deciding whether to offer another step.
What files are included?
Three English PDF files: a 29-page reading guide, a 23-page printable workbook and a 23-page fillable workbook with 56 fillable fields. All pages are US Letter. This is a digital product; no physical item is included.
Can I print the workbook or type into it?
The printable and fillable workbooks are two ways to use the same exercises. Both formats are included; choose the one that fits the occasion. For handwriting, print the pages you need on US Letter paper. For typing, use a PDF reader that supports fillable forms. Before writing a longer entry, type a short test, save a copy, close it and reopen it to check that your entries remain. PDF reader behavior varies.
Can I share the files or use them with clients?
The license is for one buyer's personal use. You may read, fill in and print your own copies; sharing product files, resale, paid courses and client services are not permitted. You may share your own written answers without reproducing the files or templates. The full license appears below.
Are the examples customer results, and what are the limits?
The worked examples are fictional teaching examples, not customer results. A respectful message can be prepared; another person's interest or response cannot be guaranteed.
