Sometimes it's hard to tell someone how much we love them, and how they make us feel, with words. Let's face it, we can't all be fantastic writers who can put together a little speech and say it out loud to the person we love that will make them melt in an instant, with very little effort and stress. That means that sometimes we have to turn to others' words in order to have such an effect on someone but that doesn't have to be plain and boring. There's also a very good chance that someone will have already said what you want to say, more eloquently and more beautifully than anyone else ever could. This post will show you a few sources for romantic and loving words and some ways of presenting them.
Firstly, you can find romantic quotes or passages from...
- books
- songs
- poems
- films
- tv programs
- famous quotes
- and many other places - use your head!
When you've chosen your quote, whether it's just a sentence or a whole paragraph, you need to decide how you're going to present it. You could...
- just write it in her card
- design something by hand or on the computer with the words (and some artistic decoration) and frame it for the wall
- do something similar but onto a canvas - check this blog post out for some help
- record your own version of the song (and post it on youtube)
- recreate the scene (alone or with her) - you could even cut the original movie, replace the scene with your recreation, and play it to her as normal on Valentines, surprising her with your own special scene
- make a video of photos of you (with reference to the lyrics or words)
- 'I love that you get cold when it’s 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle in your nose when you’re looking at me like I’m nuts. I love that after I spend a day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night.' When Harry Met Sally
- 'It was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together...and I knew it. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home...only to no home I’d ever known.' Sleepless in Seattle
- 'I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.' Pride and Prejudice
- 'Could you be the most beautiful girl in the world, It's plain to see you're the reason that God made a girl.' Prince - Most Beautiful Girl in the World
These are just a few ideas of what you can do but if you take some time to think about her favourite films or books then I'm sure you'll be able to come up with some quotes or scenes that she'll just love. Not only because they're from her favourite films, but because you've paid attention to her favourite things and made them into something beautiful that she can keep forever. So just remember that you never have to struggle to find the right words to say and how to phrase them because someone has probably already said it more beautifully than you could. So use that to help you tell her exactly how you feel.
Love from lila xx
P.S. Only 34 days until Valentine's day.
