155 Romantic Love Messages For Your Special Someone

• Match the tone. For new relationships, it's short and playful; for long-term partners, it's deeper and more specific.

• Be consistent. Doing the same things every night makes you feel safer and more relaxed. The Gottman Institute

• Make it your own. Add something small (like a memory, nickname, or plan) to make it more emotional.

• Try using a range of media. Combine text with a selfie video, voice note, or shared photo album on TellSomething to create a keepsake moment.

• Timing is important. Send them when they're likely to be winding down—about 30 to 60 minutes before they go to sleep, which often works best. Harvard Health
