You want to give her something special - words that convey how you feel about her! But, where do you start? This article tells you what she wants to know and how to say it to her.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • 30 minutes to an hour of uninterrupted time.
  • scrap paper
  • nice stationary
  • A good writing instrument
  • a pressed flower, a photograph, or some small momento

Step1
Take a few moments to just sit quietly and think about her. On a scrap of paper, jot down the first words that come to your mind about her.
Step2
Still thinking about her, write down one response for each of these:
a color, a texture, a scent or smell, a time of day, a season, a food, a song.
Step3
If you have a favorite or special memory of the two of you, write down a few key words about it. You don't have to write details, just "caught in the rain," or "falling on the step" will do.
Step4
Now, you're ready to write. On a scrap of paper, your first sentence should tell her that you were thinking about her today, and then include those first words that came to mind when you were thinking about her in step 1.
Step5
Now, choose a few of the descriptive words (the color, scent, etc.) that you like the most. Make them into a couple of sentences. For example, if you're the romantic type, tell her that thinking of her reminded you of a warm sunny beach at midday, with the smell of jasmine on the breeze. Or, if you're more the strong and silent type, tell her that she is the softest, most beautiful woman you have ever known.
Step6
Your last sentence should be something like, "It made me smile when I remembered ..." whatever your favorite or special memory is.
Step7
Read it over and make adjustments until it sounds right to you. Do not make adjustments more than twice; trust yourself. Your feelings will come through.
Step8
Write out your final draft on nice, quality stationary. Place a pressed flower, a small photograph, or something unique to the both of you inside. Seal it well or with a sticker that you know she will like.

Tips & Warnings

  • You can buy single sheets and single envelopes of good stationary at art supply stores.
  • Be sincere and honest. Your love letter should truly be inspired by the thoughts you have of her. It will show in your words.
  • To a woman, it's the effort that counts. If it appears like you went through trouble just for her, she will love what you give her, no matter how difficult your handwriting may be to read.
  • Keep it about love and your appreciation of her. Don't inject sex into your love letter. (Save that for a
  • different
  • kind of letter, or yummy phone sex!)
