Dh adn I wrote daily letters to each other when we were in grad school in Florida and he spent three months in mexico while I was behnd in Gainesville. Wouldn't call them love letters, exactly, but that was the last time a "loved one" and I exchanged letters. And I still have them...

Carol, I think it's great that you still have them! I had a BF when I was away at college, and we wrote some letters, not many. I still have them tucked away too.

It has been many years since I wrote or received a love letter.


I usually poured my heart and soul into the ones I wrote to DH when he was away in the service and was a bit disappointed in the ones he wrote back to me because that just was not his style!


I don't really think I learned much from the article and it did not inspire me to try again with the love letters. DH and I have other ways of letting each other know how we feel.

Hi Beverly. I'm sorry to hear that your relationship couldn't work out. I can tell by the way you're writing this, there's still a lot of TLC there for both of you.

"On an anniversary, I don't remember which one, we took them out and read a few."

That sounds wonderful, Pat! The first Valentines Day hubby and I celebrated together, he gave me a simple dried flower, made into a pin with a little note as part of my gift. For as many years as I could keep that flower together, I would wear it on V-day and put the note on my dresser mirror. It was like a trip down memory lane :-D
