8. You wrote him a letter.
In this day and age we tend to rely too much on electronic mail to communicate with people. Taking the time and effort to write a letter the old-fashioned way is guaranteed to catch his attention. “I found a cute handwritten note in my desk drawer. It’s nothing important, but I’m still holding on to it.” Handwritten letters carry warmth and make enough of an impact to leave a lasting impression on the recipient. Still, just like the electronic counterpart, avoid repeated and frequent letters. He may find them too bothersome to read or respond to.
