    Is there a difference?
    Is there a difference between a get well ecard and a get well paper card? Reason I asked is I've sended someone a ecard which I have edited and the words on the card really came from my heart and when this person finished reading it he just deleted it, it kind of hurted me

    Maybe his mailbox was full.:)

    I always appreciate a paper card more than e-cards, it seems more personal.But I am sure I appreciate any cards I get especially heartfelt ones.

    His mailbox was'nt full there was heaps of space and a lot of unnecessary stuff but he chose to delete mine, oh well whenever I give my best to someone things just seem not to work out for me:) weird thing is no matter how much someone might treat me unfair I will never turn my back on them. Is that a good thing?

    It definitely shows how compassionate and caring a person you are.
    However, part of that goodness within you should also allow you to be good to yourself...
    Try not to let yourself get taken advantage of while in the process of being kind to everyone.
    Smile sweetie:)

    I agree. Don't let anyone take advantage of you in any way, if possible. I can hear myself saying to myself: " look who's talking" cause I do that a lot also. I can be kind even after they brake my heart.

    I think this is just me being me, I always have the urge of making people's day. I also believe that we are here on earth to bring the best out of each other. And I try my best to bring the positive out of a negative situation. I can't help it, for me it is nice to show someone that they truly matter.

    Yep, you're not the only one. I've always liked to make someone feel loved and important, and I like doing nice details for people too, just that sometimes they don't appreciate it or they take advantage. But I know now that there's a certain degree to which you can be nice because if you let yourself be stepped on, not only does that person brake your heart but you're also being abusive of yourself by letting it happen.

    I don't know why he did that. Maybe he didn't understand how sincere you were being and just thought you did it out of nowhere because you were bored. Not everyone perceives things like that the way you intended them to.

    You are not responsible for what someone else does or does not do. You sent the card in the best wishes and that ends your culpability. If it really bothers you, ask him why he deleted the card. But I would not take any more time worrying about it.
