Understanding your friendship is the first step in deciding what you should write in a friendship card.
Friends are some of the most important people in life. They gets us through tough times and makes good times even better. That’s why it’s so important to have friends we can rely on, people who make us feel good just by being around them.

The different types of cards for friends
You can give them a card or letter at any time of the year. This could be a simple friend card, thinking of you, missing you and more. There are also certain times of year that it's good to send them a card. Occasions and suggestions like:
- Send them a birthday card
- Congratulate them on their wedding day
- Celebrate their wedding anniversary

Tell them your favourite memories of your friendship
Memories are very important in a friendship and being able to share or relive them helps make a stronger bond. You could start with:
- "Do you remember the time when..."
- "I will never forget when..."
- "My favourite memory of us is..."
- "Remember when we used to stay up all night talking? I miss that"
- "I'll never forget the fun time we went on that road trip and got lost for hours."
- "You've always been there for me, even when I haven't been the best friend myself."
- "I still can't believe you fell over drunk that night and pulled a doctor in hospital!"
Compliment them
A good friendship is built on mutual respect and admiration. So, it’s only natural that you should want to let your special friend know how much you appreciate them.
- "I admire your strength."
- "You always make me laugh."
- "Our friendship means everything to me"
- "I'm so grateful and thankful to have you in my life."
- "You bring so much joy to everyone around you"
Giving advice to a friend
Best friends are there for each other through good times and bad times. Sometimes all they need is a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen. Other times, they may need some tough love and honest advice.
If you feel like your friend could use some words of wisdom, here are some examples of what you could say:
- "If you need to talk, I'm here for you."
- "I'm always here for you, no matter what."
- "Everything will be alright in the end, just hang in there."
- "I know it's tough right now, but things will get better."
- "You're a wonderful friend and always listen when I talk"
Let them know you're thinking of them
A true friendship is based on love and trust. You don't need to see each other every day to be good friends. You may only see them once a year and feel like you've never been apart. If you're thinking of them then why not send them a card. Adding just the right words on the card can be the greatest gift.
You could also let them know why you're thinking of them. There are so many things you could say so why not try something like letting them know you're there for them to help them with anything from celebrating a happy birthday to just talking if their mental health needs additional support.
Include friendship messages and quotes
Whether your friend has been there for you during a tough time or simply made you laugh when you needed it most, take a moment to let them know how much they mean to you. A simple “thank you” can go a long way in showing your appreciation for their friendship. Or why not try one of the following quotes:
- "I cherish your friendship and hope we remain friends forever"
- "You always make me laugh even when I don't want to!"
- "I can't imagine my life without you as my friend."
- "Thank you for being such a great friend, I really appreciate it."
- "Sending lots of love to my favourite friend on their special day!"
Thank them for being a friend
It's easy to take our friends for granted. They're always there for us when we need them, whether we're having a bad day or just need someone to talk to. But have you ever stopped to think about why you should thank them for being such a good friend? Well, here are three reasons why:
First, your friends are always there for you when you need them. They listen to you when you're upset and help you out when you're in a jam. Second, your friends make you laugh. They know how to cheer you up when you're down and can always make you laugh no matter what. Third, your friends accept you for who you are. They don't judge you and they love you no matter what.
So the next time you see your best friend, take a moment to thank them for being such a good friend. Because without them, life would be a lot less fun. So here are a few examples of how to thank them.
- "Thank you for being the friend that you are."
- "I'm so lucky to have you in my life."
- "Thank you for always being there for me."
- "I don't know what I would do without you."
- Say how much they mean to you
- "You're such an important part of my life."
- "You mean everything to me."
