traditional love letters are definitely hot because it shows a fair bit of time and effort... though i run the risk of them not being able to read my writing lol :S emails are good for convenience, like you've got a few minutes between doing things - not enough to phone em or write a letter or whatever - but you still want to let em know how you feel and that you're thinking of them and give them warm fuzzies. i dont think i'd try to pick anyone up by asking for their email though... that said if i was interested i would ask for their email, it just wouldnt be part of my attempt to pick up as much as another means of communicating with them.

LOL are you serious?!?!?!

That's both hilarious and sad at the same time...

"Hi I just wanted to tell you that I find you very attractive, and I get tingles up and down my spine just thinking about sending you an email"

:rofl:
Hey don't laugh!! I kept in contact with Jase by asking him for his e-mail when I left. Had I not done that, he would have forever been the cute boy I worked with at a pasta place, never to be seen again.

Which brings me to the point. Yes, my boy writes me love letters occasionally and he knows that I melt. Like an ice-cream.

I think they are totally wonderful. Part of their charm is the fact that you open yourself up to the other person by giving them physical evidence of what you feel.

to start a relationship with a love letter is a bit freaky- look wat i'd b gettin into... some clingy over the top relationship that'll strangle me....

but if u can't think of a better way, make sure they like you, don't make it to over the top and lovey (NEVER say "love")!

and if you're gonna send a letter, write your name, otherwise u can't get a response, which i'd assume is the whole reason for the letter! andalso, they'll at least admire that you had the guts to say it instead of a piss-weak "signed annonymous"- that's hell annoying!

once you're in a relationship, love letters all the way! i love gettin them from my boyf! make them special.... not one every week- i've got two after 10 months and they're soo precious! it's cute nd romantic coz it shows that you're willing to let urself b vulnerable for the other person *swoon*

i like getting them like daily :S i mean, i dont have a problem if i dont, obviously... well this is more emails actually, i never got a written letter. but it's so nice when you check your email and you have something from your loved one just letting you know they were thinking of you. even though i got them regularly (like almost daily lol) i didnt value them any less. but then i like to tell people how i feel about them (when it's positive) cos it usually makes them feel good, so i spose it's logical i would like the same in return.

Hahaha schoolgirl crushes...

There were three girls at the Fort who had the same name and who're in consecutive grades...I was the middle one. The older one's ugly, I'm okay, and the youngest one's quite hot. On Val's day back in 2001, I got a random letter in my locker - I was quite desperate for love, mind you, then it turned out that it was for the youngest girl.

Wouldn't everyone feel a little giddy?! I've been brought up on those annoying fairytales, though I've never received a genuine love letter myself...I'd keep it if I did. I keep everything.

Always tell & show how you feel, it makes you brave for one thing, and well, there's always a chance for something beautiful. Besides, I find that I always regret the things which I hadn't done.

Love letters are a very stupid idea. No guy should ever get to the stage where he feels like he needs to write his feelings down. Its unbecoming and it will lead to mocery. I dont really beleive in love anyway and for all you people who do, do you really think a stupid adolesant writing a letter does?
if every second person with emotions 'loves' someone then it really degrades the ideal. Ive had feelings for people, strong ones but not something i would throw the word 'love' at.

I am a scientist at heart, so tell me what exactly love is, methodically prove to me it exists and i will accept it.

love is when you would do anything for them, even letting them be happy with someone else if they make her happier than what you can

its knowing that you wouldn't even have to think before dying for them.
its eveytime you breathe, you feel there warthm in your blood
its everytime you close your eyes, you see there smile
its everytime your away from them, there all you think about
and everytime your with them, you cant think.....

I try to talk to you
And can't get past the weather
The friend I thought I knew
Found somethin' somewhere better
So I'm hangin' on your line
Thought we could speak together
Don't know what it is with you
You seem gone forever

I'm spending all my time
Driving 'round, faking clever
With a girl who seem alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I tried to talk to you
And somehow you seem gone...

I know what could've been
Try not to think about it
Found it hard to live with this
Longed to live without it
My dreams have caught me out
I find myself surrounded
By the odds of our own ends
Enough said about it

I'm spending all my time
Driving 'round, faking clever
With a girl who seem alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I tried to talk to you
And somehow you seem gone...

I've given up some things
I guess that doesn't matter
Started other things
I guess that doesn't matter
I finally wrote your song
Another unsent letter
In a pile addressed to you
Care of something somewhere better

I'm spending all my time
Driving 'round, faking clever
With a girl who seem alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I tried to talk to you
And somehow you seem gone...

I'm spending all my time
Driving 'round, faking clever
With a girl who seem alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said that I'm together
But I tried to talk to you
And somehow you seem gone forever
Yeah, I tried to talk to you
And somehow you seem gone forever
Yeah, I tried to talk to you
Somehow you seem gone...

bullshit. People in 'love' kill their targets significant other all the time.

love is an irational dilusion caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain, thats all.

may i just point out to u that u just proved love exists, even if its a chemical imbalance.

ok so lots of people think their in love, there is nothing wrong with that. i love my b/f, sometime he just annoys the shit out of me but i still love him and can never stay angry with him.
