Did we notice this [link] from the People site?
I still have letters from a guy that I lived with for a couple of years. Those letters (written while I was working out of state for the summer) were entirely welcome. We also had a habit of randomly leaving little notes for each other, but I don't think I kept any of those.
A couple of other guys wrote me letters that were flattering, but because I wasn't really into them just seemed kind of odd. The most random (this was when I was 26-27) was from a guy I hadn't seen since I was 16.
ita mocks my pain
Dude, I have more creepy guy stories I can share. You think I don't know from pain
and
guys going to twisty lengths to get in your face?
I never had any love letters. I did get a gut-punching "you're such a good friend" letter from my high school crush, though.
He's a surgeon now.
After we stopped going out, I recycled my love letters from Favorite Ex...if I had known we weren't going to stay in touch, I might have kept the ones without the clip art.
I do have several...love e-mails?
I've written love letters, and now I wonder if they were creepy.

Write me one, and I'll tell you.
Me, unsurprisingly? I've never even thought of writing one.

I think I did, it's called Safe Harbor from Ann Arbor.
Man, I've never gotten even a creepy or sucky love letter.
Yeah, but you

gotten a valentine.
What counts as a love letter? A first time declartion of love, or just regular schmoopy letters between separated lovers? I've got plenty of the latter.
I don't think they're necessarily declarations of romantic love, like the essay I wrote about ita, or Tim, they can just be about how much you love someone. I'm not sure if either essay is schmoopy, but they're both about how much I love them, and how I came to love them.
I have written the romantic love letter, though. I think romantic love letters are less complex, for me, anyway.
