Things You'll Need:
- Envelopes
- Pens
- Scrap Papers
- Stationery
- Pens

Step 1
Decide why you're writing the letter and stick to the point - whether it's to tell your partner that you love him or her after all these years or to apologize to a promising potential mate for a horrible date. No one likes it when you beat around the bush.
-
Step 2
Keep your letter short.
-
Step 3
Remind the recipient how lucky you are to be together, since finding people to date is often difficult for gays and lesbians.
-
Step 4
Use humor if you know how and you think he or she will understand it, but remember that sarcasm doesn't translate well on the written page.
-
Step 5
Tell the recipient why you love him or her, not just that you do. Putting that sentiment into words will prove that you really are in love.
-
Step 6
Be creative in choosing paper - or don't use paper at all. A textured paper that you've ripped along the edges would be rustic and unique, as would a freshly starched cloth napkin that you've sprayed with your cologne or perfume.
-
Step 7
Write the letter in your own handwriting, if possible, even if it's barely legible. That makes the letter even more personal and unique.
-
Step 8
Date the note for a record of when it was written.
-
Step 9
Deliver the letter in an unconventional way - the sneakier the better.
-
Step 10
Include a small gift in the envelope, if you use one. For example, many bookstores sell flat copper or tin bookmarks that slide neatly into envelopes.
