138 Love Messages That’ll Instantly Make Your Partner Smile

We’ve all gotten the dreaded “u up?” text, but if you’re really lucky, you might have gotten a love message that was so good, you instantly took a screenshot of it to send to all your friends (and to keep re-reading over and over again, obvi). It feels good to know that someone’s thinking about you, and it’s just as fun to let them know they’re on your mind in return. Don’t forget—it’s 2023, so long gone are the days where you had to send a love letter via snail mail to express your affection. (Although, you absolutely can if that’s your jam! V romantic!) It can be as simple as a quick “just thinking about you” text, or even something flirty, like “I can’t stop thinking about that top you wore last night…”

Plus, if you’re both consenting and want to escalate the love message, you can definitely transition your sweet texts into a steamy sexting session later on. I mean, what’s hotter than hearing that someone’s thinking about you so much, they just *had* to get it out? If your love language is words of affirmation, probably nothing!

If the written word isn’t your thing, or if this is your first time showing affection like this, worry not—we have you covered with 138 (!!) love message starter ideas. Your person will be stoked to hear from you and touched that you took the time out of your day to tell them how you feel. Plus, they’ll probs swoon even harder if you personalize the message to whatever is going on in their lives. If they had a big meeting at work, send a love message that’s packed with inspiration. If they’re going through a hard time with a friend, it’s a great time to remind them that they’re still your favorite person. Below, some suggestions to get you started. Feel free to tweak to your specific situation, or just copy and paste!
