English term
would like to add you to his/her buddy list
English to Spanish
Tech/Engineering
Telecom(munications)
(somebody's name) would like to add you to his/her buddy list
This is a messenger (or maybe cell phone) message, but the problem is how to translate the English pronouns, because using 'le' for 'you' and 'su' for 'his/her' in this text seems confusing.
Please help me out.

Don\'t worry about \"su\", it\'s all right.
All you have to decide is whether the text is formal or informal.
Normally it is informal, and you have to use \"te\" (agregarte, tenerte, incluirte)

XX desea agregarte a su lista de amigos.
"desea" evita "a" antes del nombre y es más amable que "quiere".
