Ever since the advent of the internet, most of us have already forgotten and some have never even heard about genuine, touching and sweet love letters. They seem to be a huge archaism. Gone are the days when women received long and warm hand-written letters with tons of pleasant words. But tell me please, but, be honest, what can be more romantic than receiving a real love letter? I guess, actually, almost nothing. Believe me, in order to write a nice letter you don’t have to be Shakespeare, the key point is to write what you feel. Such a letter must be deeply personal. Here are some tips how to write a great love letter:
- details
Take a pen and paper and this paper should look elegant. It is highly welcomed to draw flowers or hearts on it. Don’t write a love letter on office paper with special logos.
- greeting
Forget about businesslike and direct phrases like “Dear Sirs” and start your letter with tender salutation.
- feelings
Don’t write a letter the way you write school essays, I mean with obligatory introduction, expository text, and recapitulation. Here you have to express your feelings, to show how much you love this person. Write some special things only the two of you know, your letter can include poetry. Be sincere. Don’t use cliche.
- stay focused
If you don’t know what else to write and your letter is short, you’d better stop where you are, it is no use to write about your daily problems in a love letter.
- check
When your letter is complete, check it carefully for errors.
- sealing
To add some pizzazz to your letter, seal it with wax, you can find such kits in any bookstore.
Just some general tips:
- keep it simple, but touching;
- don’t focus only on yourself;
- don’t expect something in return;
- don’t lie to impress.
