If you need some inspiration, check out the following samples to find the perfect words.

1. Dearest Hubby,

I know this can be out of the blue, but I realized how I do not appreciate you much. Thank you for your morning kisses, the breakfast-in-bed on the weekends, the spontaneous road trips, your amazing playlist that has filled our life with music and more love, and your ninja-reflexes that save the day every time my clumsiness has a mind of its own. You are great with the grand and the not-so-grand gestures, and I can never wrap my head around how I got so lucky. In case you ever feel I take you for granted, you are allowed to have the last slice of pizza – and I promise I won’t complain.

Thank you so much for all the things you do without me having to ask. And thank you for choosing me every day!

I love you so much and I look forward to the next surprise you are going to pull out of your pockets!

Yours forever

2. Hey Love,

Ever since we’ve been together, you have been such a support system in everything that I have wanted to do. Whether it was switching up my career or moving to a new home, you being by my side has made everything in my life so easy and smooth.

Thank you for bringing love, stability, and affection into my life – something that I never imagined would happen before I met you. Your positive energy has been my strength throughout, and I cannot imagine spending my life with anyone else but you.

Your proud wife,
[Your name]

3. My Superhero,

I never knew that an extrovert like you would lovingly adopt an introvert like me and completely change my life. While you see the glass as half full, I am more of a glass-half-empty kind of person, yet somehow we fit. So, thank you for showing love and care even on the days I find myself hard to love.

I love you for not judging me for the way I am and, instead, embracing my weirdness as my quirk. I can’t wait to spend more and more time getting to know each other’s personalities, no matter how different they are.

Your quirky wife,
[Your name]

4. My Dear,

I am writing this letter to let you know that I am incredibly lucky to have you in my life. Whether it’s me or my family, you have embraced every aspect of my life into yours effortlessly, and I cannot begin to tell you how happy that makes me. You put me on a pedestal, forgive me when I am wrong, and ground me when I am being difficult.

Thank you for turning my life into a dream world and being the perfect husband. I love you, my husband.

Your loving wife,
[Your name]

Your darling wife,

I want to start by saying sorry for my behavior earlier this week. Trust me, I didn’t mean for it to happen. There were a lot of things occupying my mind, and I am sorry that I took it all out on you. You deserve better and I know it, so I hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

I am ready to work it out with you if you are. I know that you need your space right now, and I will be here waiting for you as long as you need. All I can think about is our short getaway last week and the happy memories we made together, so it just saddens me to see us fighting like this.
