girlfriend help: Writing poems for my girlfriend? - Help.com

try something light. like, instead of a poem confessing undying love or something write a cute little poem about something you like about her.

think of it like… rather than a big chocolate cake of a poem, a light slice of cucumber of a poem. simple and fresh so you dont creep her out :P

oooh! that’s so cute i love it! light and sweet! :D

haha not sure, if i knew you two better i’d give some pointer but its up to you :P

change “stare” with “look”
stare sounds creepy

Just be honest and make it come from the heart. You don’t have to be a Romeo. This is such a sweet thing to do.

To be honest I think after 3 weeks theres a chance of it coming off creepy, but that depends on your relationship. I’d say if you do write a poem make it jokey and self aware. I’d write a funny OTT one that makes you sound like a complete stalker/hopeless romantic/psycho (in a jokey way). But thats just me, if you wanted to do something that was trully deep and meaningful maybe tone it down a little seeing as it’s only 3 weeks in. So yeah my advice is either hillariously OTT or serious and subtle.

I’ll wait until it’s been a few months. I don’t really do jokey poetry it’s not really my thing. I don’t really know how our relationship is to be honest so I won’t risk it.

Notjokey poetry, thats just tacky and cheap. I mean just a little satrical, the same but with a touch of psychosis or another jokey theme (but presented in your usual way). Yano so the whole I love you comes across, but in a funny and quirky way that is still your own. By the way your poems are awesome, I can reall feel the passion in them.

I would suggest not having a girlfriend they just end up hurting you. but if you must have a girlfriend I don’t think poetry could hurt. I agree that you shouldn’t confess your love or anything this soon, but write about her beauty or something. I wish you luck with your girlfriend.
