Short Birthday Messages

Include a short, thoughtful sentiment in a birthday card. If you’re not usually keen on talking at length (or want the pre-written message in your girlfriend’s birthday card to do most of the talking), short yet sweet birthday wishes can still show her how much you care.

Messages for a New Girlfriend

Let a new girlfriend know you look forward to more birthdays in the future. If your relationship is relatively new, you might feel unsure how to address her on her birthday—especially if you really like her but maybe aren’t ready to say “I love you” yet. And that’s perfectly okay! With a simple yet sincere birthday message, you can still show a new girlfriend that you’re serious about the relationship and truly care for her. For example:
- “I can’t wait to celebrate you today! Happy birthday.”

Birthday Blessings

Offer a blessing if you and your girlfriend have the same religion. Birthday wishes with religious sentiments in them can be super touching as long as religion is something you and your girlfriend share. Sharing blessings probably isn’t the best idea if your girlfriend isn’t religious—even if you are. However, when religion is something you have in common, feel free to incorporate it into a birthday card (or speech).
- “You’re in my prayers today and every day. I hope you get every blessing in life. Happy birthday!”
- “May your birthday be filled with happiness, peace, and blessings. I love you!”
- “I pray you get everything you want and more. You deserve the world. Happy birthday!”
