Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, which means it’s time to pick out a card and write the perfect heartfelt (or hilarious) message. But if you turn to the internet for inspiration, you might end up with something like, “You can Hakuna Matatas anytime you want” or “I wanna have Shreks with you.” While these are certainly unique, they might not be what you’re looking for.
Instead, use this simple formula to craft a personal, funny, and meaningful message: Truth, Truth, Funny Truth.
The Formula for a Great Message:
- Truth #1: A genuine compliment or statement (e.g., I love your eyes).
- Truth #2: Another heartfelt truth (Your smile makes my day).
- Funny Truth: A light hearted joke that personalizes the message (Your selective deafness when the cat wants breakfast at 5 AM).
Some examples include:
- You’re my best friend, my lover, and my Netflix binge enabler.
- I love your hugs, your laugh, and the way you always steal my fries.
- You make me smile, you make me laugh, and you pretend my dad jokes are funny.
Wrap it up with “I love you.” and you’ve got a winner!
If all else fails, you can always rely on a cheeky line like, “Winter isn’t the only thing that’s coming.”
