12 Sweet Things to Say to Your Valentine They’re Better than Saying “I Love You” (Sort of)

Knock Knock - 12 Sweet Things to Say To Your Valentine

If you suffer from verbal clumsiness like me, telling your other half how much he or she means to you can sometimes end in self-loathing feelings of “WTF just tumbled out of my mouth?”

Here are 12 fill-in phrases from our Fill in the Love™ Journal seriesWhat I Love about YouWhat I Love about UsWhy I’m Crushing on You, and Why You’re So Hot—to help you out. Use these lines in cards, as a last line in your sonnet, or perhaps to top off a stanza in a song. These are meant to inspire you, but you can also use these filled-in answers in your own Fill in the Love™ Journal (we won’t tell).
