One of the best ways to convey exactly how you feel about someone is through written words. Finding the perfect way to say what you mean - when it comes to love - can be a challenging task for anyone. So, we've gathered some helpful tips. Go ahead; spill your heart onto a piece of paper. Whether through a one-line sentiment, a poem, or some prose - let them know how you feel!
Tips for writing your own love letters
Make it personal. Writing a love letter is a dying art. So if you're going to say it - mean it!
Express your gratitude for the person being in your life.
Include any special nicknames that the two of you share.
Be specific. What are the things that he/she does to make you starry-eyed? Is it the way he gets a little teary at a sad movie? Is it the way she can't wake up without her green tea?
Include memories of specific times you spent together. Let him/her know what they meant to you and why.
Whether you're sending it by mail or delivering it to them personally, hand-write it. Typed letters are sterile. If you're even thinking about e-mail, then do something creative like designing a personalized "home page" love letter.
Love quotes
People have been writing about love for centuries. Love quotes can capture exactly how you feel about your sweetheart in just a few words. Make up your own, or borrow a few of these to add to your letter.
