How to Write a Letter to a Girl
Depending on what you want to convey in it, writing a letter to a girl can be a daunting prospect. You want to get her attention with your written words, but you don't want to make a fool of yourself if you don't get your desired outcome. When writing letters to females, it is always best to be open and honest about your feelings, but succinct in your writing. Be direct and make your point without bumbling over your words in the letter.

1
Ponder the message of your letter. For example, perhaps you just want to establish a rapport with the young lady, or maybe you want to express your feelings about her. Before the pen ever touches the paper, figure out what it is you plan to say to give yourself some direction.

2
Address her using her first name only and an endearing salutation. For example, you might start with "Dear Jennifer," which is among the more common ways to start a letter to a female, using the word "dear." If you already know her well or are comfortable with more flowery language you might try "My dearest...," but only if you know she would be receptive to this kind of over-to-top display of romance.

Explain your reason for writing. Perhaps you are too tongue-tied to tell her some of these things in person, or maybe there is never ample opportunity to talk one-on-one. Whatever the reason, express it in the first part of your letter. For example: "I've been looking for the right time to tell you how I really feel about you. Since we never seem to have a moment alone, I thought a letter could better tell you how much I really like and care about you."

4
Recognize the things about her that made you write the letter. Presuming that you like the girl and that's why you are writing, give details on the aspects of her appearance and personality that stand out to you. For example: "You are the most beautiful girl in our school and I love the way you always wear colors as bright as your personality. You're fun and friendly and everyone loves hanging out with you because of that."
-
5
Make a request or statement of action. If you like her and that is the reason for your letter, then ask her if she would consider going out with you sometime or at least be willing to give you her phone number. For example: "I would love to spend more time getting to know you personally. Maybe I could call you one night during the week or on the weekend and we could talk, or even hang out outside of school."

6
Close the letter. Wrap it up by thanking her for taking the time to read your letter and end with a salutation representative of your feelings. For example, you might try "Thinking of you," or "Love," or even "With all of my love," and then sign your name.
