Tips of “I Love You” Greeting Messages for Different Types of Relationships

So without further ado, the following are some tips and examples showing better ways of expressing your love in a greeting message:

  • [For a Friend] When writing for a friend, be sure to add a general yet sentimental comment that both of you can relate to. Greeting card messages add that special touch that will make it that much special. An example of a general yet sentimental comment would be like this: “When we were kids, you always stood by my side”. General yet sentimental comments are relatable to just about anyone; therefore, these types of messages will sell greatly.
  • [For a Sister/ Brother] The ones who have siblings know how it is with fighting one minute, and loving the other. Besides the parents, siblings have seen the worst of each other. Putting those aspects in certain perspective will make the greeting message more touching to that awesome sibling. An example of this is as follows: “From protecting me to teaching me, you should receive the best big sister (brother) award.”
  • [For a boyfriend/girlfriend] Your love will surely blossom, not only by expressing your love like no other, but also by adding one to a few memories. It can be generic yet sentimental like bike riding, or even talking about that certain trip that the both of you had together, for example.
  • [For a grandparent] Always show honor and appreciation, and add something extra. A good example of this is showing how appreciative you are because they were supportive of you in a way that only a grandparent knows how to do. Doing this will definitely promote the warmth inside your grandparent.
  • [For mom] Always show honor and appreciation, especially in showing how appreciative you are, when she endured all the things that you did as a child. The following is a good example: “I can never repay you for all the times you had sleepless nights because you were taking care of me.”
  • [For dad] Always show honor and appreciation. Show how he’s your hero, and how because of him, the house kept order and structure. Also, expressing appreciation for all the guidance and lessons he taught will go a long way. An example of this is as follows: “Now that I am older, I understand that your firmness towards me was because you wanted the best for me”.
  • [For a spouse] Show how your love for him/her is like no other, and add a special sentimental yet general incident. This can be done by starting off saying, “remembering our first kiss still gives me butterflies”.
  • [For a daughter] Show how much you treasure your beautiful and special princess, and how she gave you joy. This can be done by saying, for example, “I am really blessed to have you as my daughter”.
  • [For a son] Show how much you treasure your handsome and wonderful son, and how he gave you joy. For example, you can say, “I couldn’t have asked for a better son.”
