Hereā€™s what to say when you donā€™t know what to say.

Hello friend! Youā€™ve told me in the past that today is a bit weird and complicated for you, so I am just going to drop this and run away ā€“ you don't have to respond! I am SO glad you exist, and so proud to know the person that you are. You are an amazing person to have in my life and I consider myself lucky to call you a friend! Check your email later for a coffee gift card, you deserve it!
