Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
What do I say to a girl if I’m in the friend zone?
If you like a girl but are in the friend zone, you should treat her as a friend. Being in the friend zone may not be what you want, but you have to respect her autonomy and wishes. If you truly are friends and you value your friendship, treat her with the same kindness you would treat any other friend and keep your relationship platonic. It’ll happen if things are meant to be, but it’s important not to push it because that could ruin your friendship completely. If possible, tell her how you feel in real life or via phone or video chat rather than over text. Telling someone that you like them has the potential to be a special moment, and you want to avoid any potential miscommunication no matter what the outcome is.
How do I text a girl that I like but am not in a relationship with yet?
When you like someone, your texting style will differ from how your texting style appears when you are talking to someone who’s just a friend. Keep it light-hearted, but if you have a flirtatious connection and you’ve expressed mutual interest, keep it going. If you are talking to this girl in person or using video chat, you can compliment her by saying something like, “I love how your hair looks today,” “Your smile makes me smile,” or “Your laugh is beautiful.” Suppose you’re talking via messenger or want to send a sweet text but plan to speak via phone, video chat, or in person soon. In that case, you can text a girl a sweet text or love SMS like “I’m excited to talk to you soon,” “I can’t wait to see you again,” or “I can’t wait to hear your voice” before you sign off or put your phone down. Knowing that you value her time and enjoy speaking to her will make the girl you’re texting feel appreciated, which is why these sayings make for such sweet text messages.
Another thing you can do is text a girl you like before she goes to bed; texting someone goodnight or sending a sweet text before bed to wish them sweet dreams makes it super easy to show that you care. Many girls love a good night text now and again, even if your sweet text good night is as simple as “sweet dreams.” Sending a cute goodnight text is an easy, light-hearted, and incredibly sweet way to make a girl smile. A goodnight text is pretty much always a safe move to make to show a girl that you care about her or to work a sweet text into a conversation that’ll make a girl smile. If you like a girl, you likely want to make her laugh. If that’s the case and things are getting flirty, you might go with both funny and cute love quotes like this ever-popular quote by the artist Tyga: “Life without you is like a broken pencil; there’s no point.” That way, she’ll fall asleep with a smile and a giggle. Sometimes, the sweetest text is one that is also funny. A sense of humor is an excellent attribute, so go for it if you are a funny person or can think of a funny and sweet text to send.

What are the best anniversary gifts for parents?
You want to give the best anniversary gift possible to your parents because they deserve the best. Maybe, you are not looking for gifts to give your partner on your anniversary, but you are looking for what to say and do for your parent’s anniversary. Great gift ideas make it unforgettable for your parents, which matters because they deserve the best. The best second-anniversary present may differ from the best one-year or tenth-anniversary present, but it does depend on the couple. Some of the best anniversary gifts for parents are meaningful but not necessarily expensive.
Additionally, depending on your parents’ personality, some of the best anniversary gifts for parents might be practical items. For example, your parents might be eyeing a new kitchen appliance, like a nice blender, and if they both have a personality where they would rather have practical items, it makes more sense that you would get them something like that. One of the best anniversary gifts for parents that is pretty universal is a gift that has to do with their wedding or the family. For example, a handmade photo album or scrapbook can be very meaningful. Giving something personal or custom-made is a great idea for parents because they deserve to know how much you love them and value having them as your parents. Ultimately, you know your family the best, but these are great ideas to go with.
How do I say goodbye to someone I love?
Parting ways is hard. Maybe, you’re in a long-distance relationship. It could be that you or your spouse are in the military or that you’re apart because of your career, travel, or family obligations. When you love a girl, making her feel happy and making your girl smile is often the main goal and, when accomplished, the highlight of your day. When you say goodbye until next time, you can say something like “I love you with all of the stars in the sky” (unknown), “I wish I could pause every moment with you to make it last longer,” “I wish life had a pause button; I would pause every moment we had together” (unknown), or “you will always be my favorite hello and hardest goodbye.” (Cecilia Ahern)
While you’re away, you can use a quote such as “I think of you and kiss my pillow before I fall asleep every night” (author unknown), “I can’t wait to see my girl smile again, and look forward to seeing your beautiful face again every day,” or “each day feels like a year when I am away from you” to let her know how much you wish she were there. It’s hard to be away when you want to be there, making your girlfriend happy and seeing your girl smile in real time, but it is possible to make your girl smile from a distance through cute messages, sweet love messages, and love quotes. Another sweet thing to say after you say goodbye when you’re apart from the person you love is, “I miss your voice, so call me ASAP” or “I miss you, and I hope your day was as spectacular as you are.”
What are some creative ways to tell a girl that she’s beautiful?
To tell your girlfriend that she’s beautiful, you can say, “The stars in the sky can’t compare to the way you shine,” “You have the most beautiful eyes in the world, “or “I didn’t know that angels were allowed to walk on earth until I saw you” (author unknown). Compliment her hair, her eyes, and her smile whenever it pops into your head. A compliment makes a sweet text, but it is also great to hear in person. Whether it’s sent in a sweet text or otherwise, compliments are an excellent way to make your girl smile. Often, when someone’s so beautiful, we think that they must be aware of it. Still, the truth is that everyone gets down on themselves from time to time and that almost anyone you’re close to will appreciate a compliment like this from their significant other. You can also say something akin to, “It’s amazing; you get more beautiful every time I see you,” to make your girl smile and remind her that she’s beautiful.This is super sweet in particular if you have been together for a while because you’re communicating to her that her beauty and your adoration for her continue to grow. When you’re looking for sweet things to say to a girl or want to make a girl smile, know that she will value being called beautiful, but make sure to compliment her on other things as well so that she knows she’s more than just a pretty face to you. Especially if she is the romantic type, finding a variety of sweet things to say is a great way to show affection, make a girl smile, and let her know that you love everything about her.
What are some sweet things to say to a girl?
Again, when you talk to a girl, complimenting her appearance is one way to make a girl smile, but it’s not everything. Often, a girl wants to know that she’s more than that. Here are some super sweet things to say to a girl that venture outside of the topic of physical appearance:

A sweet text like this shows a woman you care about and think about her, even when your days are packed. You can also surprise your girlfriend by asking if she’d like to go somewhere nice or head out on a date soon.
