Love letters

What is your opinion on love letters?

I was thinking of writing a love letter in my scorpio's xmas card. Just telling him how much I love & appreciate him.

In the early stages of our relationship, he used to write me love poems and I used to write a little something back to him. Then it just randomly stopped...We don't do that anymore, not sure why.

Do you think it's corny and he will find it a bit too much/overwhelming or would he like it?

@rumilove & @vixen2 thank you 🙂

mk89, if writing is a form of expression in which you could convey your emotions best then by all means write him a love letter!

I am quite sure he will cherish the words dearly although he may or may not express his excitement and happiness externally upon reading it but he will appreciate it (internally he may become a mess and be touched by it). It is never corny when you simply want to express your love to the one you care for the most. 🙂

I think he will probably like that a lot, particularly because he liked that kind of thing in the past. It's nice to bring romantic expression that a relationship started with back, if possible.

I agree with TheLadyScorpio that he might not express his appreciation outwardly (most Scorpios I know can get a bit overwhelmed, at least at first) but that doesn't mean that he isn't moved.

I love writing them but hate reading them when theyre for me.

Venus/saturn issues

Ive gotten some from ppl that i refuse to read.

In the past i would get them, read them, absorb them, believe them. Then my expectations of the sender would increase dramatically and the sender would eventually disappoint. They couldn't even measure up to their own words.

So i dont read them anymore.

Shit. I need to work on better penmanship for future love letters.

I'd probably laugh

-_-

Lol this is how I thought his reaction would be and I don't want to humiliate myself.

Why would you laugh out of curiosity?

I feel bad for my comment and I'm sorry if it came off as harsh.

It just triggered a bad memory, so I'll explain....

The last time someone did something like this for me....they gave them to me about a week after they ended the relationship with me. Upon receiving them, I was really touched. It was not a gesture to reconcile the relationship, it was just something they had wanted to share about our relationship journey. It was an innocent gesture. That's how I took it. I read nothing into it. I thought it was really sweet.

However, just a few minutes after getting them, the comment was made...."Well, you can throw them away now if you want."

Those words still haunt me.

It's like everything that had been written was erased at that moment and now it wasn't worth anymore than the paper it was on. They took all value out of them.

I don't know if it was nerves, insecurities or self-doubt...or what it was that made them say that....but it tarnished the experience.

I didn't throw them away. I still read them occasionally. However, I can't shake off those words. Once you hear something you can't unhear it. I really don't know *how* to read them now, didn't then and probably never will.

So, with that said, do it....but be confident when handing them over and let them *be* what they really are....a moment of time where you really believed what you were writing with everything inside you.....and then let it go...and don't ever try to take it back. No matter what...those words are your *truth*....*right now*.

that's just my two sense. *shrugs*

I'm not offended by your comment at all. I completely understand and agree with what you're saying. I wouldn't put anything I don't mean.

Sorry you had you go through what you did!

Thank you.
I am kind of in two minds with writing it. I don't want to make him feel uncomfortable or even embarrass myself lol.

If it was me I would love to receive something like that from him.

He knows I love him but I wanted to do a sweet gesture.

Thanks al for your comments 🙂
