Writing Valentine’s Cards

Writing Valentine’s Cards

By Ronnie Neiman

Who should you write Valentine's Day cards for? And what to write on them? Handing out Valentine’s cards does not have to be only for your partner. It could also be a sign of platonic love, family love, and so much more. There is more love in the air than romantic love.

The most important part is figuring out a message to write on the cards. Back in the day, when you had to come up with a Valentine for everyone in your class, it was enough just to sign your name twenty times… and maybe tape on a heart-shaped sucker. But now that you’re older and your Valentine’s list is shorter, you can afford to take your time adding a meaningful, personal message to your card. 

Some platonic sayings for Valentine’s cards:

Thanks for being awesome in so many ways.

I’m so glad we can count on each other.

You’re exactly what friends are for.

You make the world better.

It’s a day about love, and I totally love you, friend!

Who says Valentine’s Day is just for lovers? Annoying jerks, that’s who.

Our friend-love is so important to me.

Soulmates aren’t just a romantic thing. Thanks for being my friend soulmate.

Thanks for being the loyal and caring friend you are. Love you!

Happy Valentine’s to one of my favorite people. Ever.

Some romantic phrases for the romance in your life:

It’s cool to be married to your best friend.

I like who I become when I’m with you.

You’re the bright spot in my day, every day.

I love being with you no matter what we’re doing.

We’re so awesome together.

We’ve shared a lot of Valentine’s Days, but it never gets boring loving you.

Thanks for putting up with me. Love you!

Every time I look in your eyes, I fall in love all over again.

You make this life thing pretty awesome.

You’re my favorite part of every day.

Here are some funny Valentine’s notes just because:

Don’t look down here for the mushy stuff. That’s what the card was for!

Somebunny loves you. Seriously. You’re very popular with rabbits.

Valentine’s Day with you beats my best ever! (For the record, that was in third grade when a kid gave us all full-size candy bars.)

You’re like the thing to my other thing that goes with that first thing! (I’m not great with words, obviously.)

Will you be wine? I love ya merlots.

It’s true like for sure.

Valentine, guess what? Love your butt!

When should we start rosé-ing?

Wish you were here to Valenwhine with me. (Or you could write “Valenwine,” depending on your mood!)
