Tips for Writing a Perfect Valentine’s Day Love Letter
- Write the letter when you are relaxed and happy.
- Clear your mind of any distractions and focus on your loved one.
- On a rough sheet of paper write some notes about your loved one’s unique qualities.
- Always hand write the letter to give it a more personal touch.
- Use a good quality, romantic letter paper.
- Write with a fountain pen instead of ball pen, as it appears more elegant.
- Pay special attention to the opening and closing of the letter to leave a greater impact.
- Write from your heart in simple expressive sentences.
- Never make comparisons to a previous loved on or mention anyone else in the letter.
- Do mention your loved one’s name often in the letter to remind them that you were thinking of them while writing it.
- In the body of the love letter you may write the special qualities of your loved one.
- In the following paragraphs you may share your hopes and dreams for the future along with your partner.
- Be truthful and avoid making commitments that you may not be able to keep and cause a feeling of distrust.
- One page is an ideal length for a love letter. You may write more if you are comfortable with your partner but don’t make it too long.
- Always sign the love letter.
- Spray a fragrant perfume on the back of the letter (not over the writing).
