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.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I've written love letters, and now I wonder if they were creepy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

Not creepy at all!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Man, I've never gotten even a creepy or sucky love letter.
Yeah, but you have 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.
