I’m sure we can all attest that “texting” is a convenience, but sometimes a very annoying form of communication. Using it to send encouraging little reminders to your boyfriend/girlfriend and to build up one’s relationship makes it not such a bad thing, though. Especially if your work schedules clash, you can’t see each other often, or you don’t have time for a phone call.

It’s fine to be a person of few words, but it doesn’t hurt to make those few words count. And if your partner’s love language is “words of affirmation”, chances are high that the following text message examples will gain you brownie points. I do ask that you use only the ones you truly mean. And have fun!
