Here’s How:
- Clear your desk and your mind of distractions.
- Place a picture of the one you love in front of you.
- Put on your favorite music.
- Take out your best stationery and pen.
- On another sheet of paper, make two lists: a) his/her unique qualities; b) your hopes for the future together.
- Personalize the salutation. “Dear ___ ,” or “To my darling _____,” are both fine.
- In the body of the letter, begin by telling him/her what you think makes the individual so special. List at least three qualities, ideally, emotional, physical, and and spiritual ones.
- In the following paragraph, share your hopes and dreams for the future you can have together.
- Personalize the closing with “I will love you always,” “Loving you forever,” “My heart is yours,” are all good possibilities.
- Don’t forget to sign!
- Spray the letter with a light fragrance.
- Address, seal and stamp the letter.
- Wait a day before you send it; you may change your mind.
- Drop it in the mail, and look forward to the response.
Tips:
- Don’t mention anyone but yourself and the addressee in the letter.
- Make sure you only send a love letter to someone who will appreciate it.
- Pick out a special stamp for your letter at the post office.
