Day 28
Write a Love Letter
We previously discussed the idea that every man should strive to be a
romantic lover, and how the date is one of a man’s best tools for wooing a
lady. A man’s other major tool in the romance department is the love letter.
As long as love (and writing utensils) has existed, so has the love letter. It
has been the go-to way for millions of men throughout history to confess
or reiterate their feelings of love for another.
Plenty of women, of course, have and will continue to write love letters.
But as the sex that has historically been the “pursuer” in the relationship
and often has trouble vocally expressing their feelings, writing love letters
has traditionally been the purview of men.
It’s not always easy to express our feelings to our significant others. We’d
rather show our love through actions. We feel that our love for someone is
manifestly obvious, because after all, don’t we vacuum the house, and mow
the lawn, and make them their favorite pancakes every Sunday morning?
Our actions show that we’re faithful and true, and to us it feels like this
should be enough.
But it’s not quite that way for a woman. Women definitely appreciate our
acts of love, but their brains are also quite a bit more language oriented than
ours. They want to hear the words behind the actions. They want to know
exactly what’s in our hearts.
But it’s hard to not only find the right words to express how we feel
about someone, but to also make it flow and sound real purty. It’s especially
difficult when you’re sitting down with someone and trying to remember
exactly what you wanted to say. Enter the love letter.
Writing a fantastically romantic love letter can be a challenge, but that’s
what you signed up for with this 30 Days project. So let’s get started.
