Thanks

It's such a peculiar thing, thanking people. Does one thank people at regular intervals, like a timely reminder of how much you appreciate them as a person? Or does one go for the ultimatum approach - thanking them at the final point i.e. when you are most likely to never see them ever again.

To thank is to express gratitude or appreciation. But you could be thanking them for what they have done for you, or you could be thanking them for being themselves. Either way, both parties are affected.

1. Thanking for affect

2. Thanking for effect

I don't know which one occurs more often, but I know that it's just as good either way.
