How to Make Beautiful Flower Arrangements

I have a very dear friend who lives overseas, so it’s difficult to show her what she means to me.

I’ve actually had notions of her as a girlfriend in the past… and although she is very fond of me, she’s made it clear that the ‘boyfriend/girlfriend’ thing isn’t ever going to happen.

Up to date, I’ve written letters to her, sent her greeting cards, have arranged flowers for birthdays and for no reason at all and have made many long-distance phone calls, all of which have been well-received but I’m looking for some ideas of other things that I can do to *show* her that she is special to me (even ‘just’ as a dear, close friend) – it’s the old ‘actions speak louder than words’ thing – but my imagination has deserted me(!)

One of the difficulties is that she is not very romantic and is not sentimental at all, which is completely opposite to me, so things that I would consider ‘meaningful’ have almost no significance to her.

I’d appreciate any suggestions you might have.
Just to note.. We’ve known each other for nearly 4 years and we get on very well when we *do* chat on the phone, etc – we *are* quite close, emotionally.
Actually, I’m already arranging a visit to see her (depends on $$$ issues to travel half-way round the world!)… and she says she’d like to have me visit… but as there’s no girlfriend/boyfriend thing possible, I’m not taking a 2nd mortgage on the house to get over there(!)

Oh.. and I’ve already straight-out told her she’s important to me.. and she says I’m special to her, too… so that seems to be well-understood

Well, since she has expressed there won’t be a girlfriend/boyfriend thing ever happening I would just continue as you are. She obviously considers you a dear friend since you chat to each other etc – going overboard with the gifts etc may scare her off you.
