Between texts, DMs, voice notes, and Snaps, there’s literally no shortage of ways to convey how you feel about your boo. And as much as a cute text can make your day, nothing beats a good old fashioned handwritten card, especially when it comes to Valentine’s Day.

Listen, I don’t make the rules. Maybe it’s that love notes have likely been around for most of human history, or maybe it’s that, if you’re like me, you have the best mems of sending and receiving tiny Valentine’s Day cards and candy as a kid in school. Or maybe it’s the fact that in our fast-paced, screen-time-overload world, stopping to buy, write, and deliver a card is the ultimate act of thoughtfulness.

I get it, though. Not everyone considers themselves to have a ~way with words~ or even considers themselves a romantic. So what do you say when there’s so much pressure? Don't worry, we’ve got you covered when it comes to winning Valentine’s Day prose, from short and sweet sayings to funny and heartfelt quips. And no, using our ideas isn't cheating. Use the below Valentine's Day messages as jumping off points, then personalize your note to your partner, bestie, situationship, or whoever you’re sending some love to this February 14. Or you know, forgo the whole thought starter thing and just use the whole message as your own. Promise we won't tell 😉.

Whether you’re still in the honeymoon phase or are in double digits with how many Valentine's Days you've spent together, keep scrolling for the best ideas on what to write in a Valentine's Day card.
