What! She's writing this for a bloke!

Include anything about a decent pervy night together you once had. A bit about how great he is in bed and something about what you want him to do to you in the future at some point.

Throw in a bit about how great he is with the kids and he'll be well chuffed.

Lol couldnt have said it better myself pander to his ego a little ;-) Maybe also put a couple of vouchers in there too for use when he feels like it. Maybe for example a raunchy night with his choice of undies or an all male films night that you promise to watch with him even if you hate them. ive got the second one in my card he loves war films but they bore me to tears but at least it shows an effort on my part to do something he enjoys :-)

My Mrs still has one I wrote for her, what.... crikey 20 years ago, she treasures it.
I never have told her it mostly comes from a Marillion song

Which Marillion song? I was named after the song Kayleigh as my Dad had a crush on the woman in the video.....not too sure if that's good or bad though.

And this is why I wanted to do letters so we have something to keep for years downt the line.

Well as Valentines is coming up I said to OH let write letters to each other saying how we feel and stuff instead of buying presents.....

Now I'm stuck on what to put apart from I love you...If you were recieving a letter from your OH, what would you want to read?

So you said to OH..? Why? Do you seek re-assurance? I think writing such letters is more of an avoidance technique...might as well text. Just my view.

Well I didn't say to him, I asked him and he agreed it was a good Idea. I hate texting feelings, what's wrong with an old fashioned letter you can keep for years to come? Plus I also dropped my phone down the loo so it's hard to text on it.

:rotfl:An' we promise not to tell her

I'm feel the same as you on this OP about having something in writing, something to hold in your hands and read and keep for years to come - to me a text is nothing like a letter

Hi, i'm very new here (first post), but my DH and I are planning on 'making' each other something.....needless to say, it was my suggestion, and now i'm stuck for something!
Really like the idea of 50 things on post-its, I think he would too. My only other idea is to make an origami heart (plenty of how-to's online, if anyone's interested). Actually, the list could be folded into the heart! Right, just need to get creative with the list and find some nice paper now

Thanks for the suggestions

ok I'm so proud of myself for being so creative I'm posting this again (already on another thread) in hope that it will bring some inspiration to someone else! - If that doesn't sound too arrogant...

I don't normally respond to threads but I'm really happy with my MS valentines gifts. Its also my OHs birthday on 15th and our anniversary on 16th! So we have agreed (although I'm not entirely sure he's going to stick to it!) to only give spend £1! I took some inspiration from here and wrote a list of 100 reasons why I love him - its actually a lot easier than I thought it would be when I started. I've made a card using a picture of the two of us a couple of summers ago when we were having a really good time. And I've printed off some country walking routes in the area we live as he loves going for walks. Actually feels really good to have been creative, can't wait to give it to him!
