Take some time to actually pen something heartfelt that you’re proud of. Even if it’s a little embarrassing for you, she’ll probably cherish it forever.^{[12]XResearch source}

Borrow a quote.

- “The way I feel about [you] is like a heartbeat—soft and persistent, underlying everything.” (Becky Albertalli)
- “If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.” (Winnie the Pooh)

For added effect, throw one of these out when she least expects it and she may end up in a whirlwind of emotions.^{[14]XResearch source} Lines that might work include:
- “You’re so lovely it’s hard to look at you sometimes.”
- “The things I’d do for you if we were together tonight.”
- “You’re beautiful when you look at me like that.”
