Sorry, but I am confused...you're looking for translations of "yo le pierdo" and "me olvido de Usted"?

It´s not very clear what do you want: do you want to say your friend "I forget you"? or "I lost you"

I think you "mistranslated" I miss you and that's how you got Te pierdo or something like that...
maybe you want to say: "Te extraño" which is the transl for I miss you and "te olvido" which is the transl for I forget you...
is that it?
Hope I was of some help!!!!

I fear that jacinda sent the letter saying "Me olvido de Usted" and isn't happy with the answer...hopefully that's not what happened.

I agree, why don't you give us the English phrases? Those Spanish ones don't sound very nice :-/
