What is the Most Romantic Quote Ever?
- “I loved her against reason, against promise, against peace, against hope, against happiness, against all discouragement that could be.” (Great Expectations by Charles Dickens)
This quote illustrates an important point. What matters though is not that love is intense or logical but that it makes a person happy. So when writing your love letter, try to illustrate how happy you are because of this relationship.
It’s not just about stating a fact (“I love you!”), or using powerful worlds, but about sharing feelings. You’re a happier person because he’s in your life.
Here’s another great love quote.
- “I love that you get cold when it’s 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you’re looking at me like I’m nuts.” (Nora Ephron, When Harry Met Sally)
- “In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.” (Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen)
The “challenge” of a someone admitting their feelings makes the following statements all the more intense and heartfelt. When you let a lover know, confiding so intimately isn’t easy for you, he will appreciate how special the occasion is.
Speaking of which…

Want to know how can I make him feel special? Quotes like the following are important because they are very much in the spirit of Valentine’s Day. The occasion is not just about romance or sex, but about making him feel appreciated, loved, and best of all, recognized for his unique qualities.
Remember what we say about men in general on this blog. Men want to be applauded and loved for their efforts, not just their potential. So find some ways to express just how much you appreciate his special qualities. Consider lines like…

- “I love you the most because I’ve never met anyone like you. Every cool new person I meet is just a reminder of how special you are.”
- “Everyone falls in love with you because of your looks. Your wit. Your accomplishments. But I love you because I see the real you, the one behind the mask. You have a heart of gold and you love the people close to so intensely. That’s what I see in you and why I love you so much.”
- “I’ve never felt so close to anyone before. You brought out a side of me I didn’t even know I had.”
- “I love you the most because you’re you. You’re the kind of guy who…(list all of the cute things he does every day that make you smile) …and that’s why you’re special. I know you and love you because of all the little things that make up you.”
