How much do you love what’s-her-face? Here’s how to count the ways
你愛(ài)她有多深,下面就是考慮的幾種方法。
Step 1: Consider presentation
Pick out nice, heavy-stock stationery and a pricey pen. An old-fashioned fountain pen is a classy touch
第一步:考慮外觀
挑選漂亮的信箋信封和昂貴的鋼筆。一支舊式的自來(lái)水筆用起來(lái)會(huì)很舒服。
Step 2: Set the mood
Put on music that moves you, and perhaps place a photo of your love in front of you for inspiration.
第二步:調(diào)節(jié)心情
放些感動(dòng)你的音樂(lè),也許在你面前放一張你所愛(ài)的人的照片會(huì)很好。
Tip:If your handwriting will have her wondering why you think her eyes twinkle like doormen and her lips taste like straw beds, consider hiring a calligrapher.
小貼士:如果你的筆跡想使她想到為什么你認(rèn)為她的眼睛像看門(mén)人那樣閃亮,她的嘴唇有稻草床的味道。那你要考慮雇一個(gè)書(shū)法家。
Step 3: Begin lovingly
Start with a loving salutation—use a pet name or term of endearment.
第三步:信的開(kāi)始要有趣味
信的開(kāi)始要有趣味—用一個(gè)寵物的名字或是“親愛(ài)的”這樣的詞語(yǔ)。
Step 4: Make your declaration
Declare why you love this person, listing as many reasons as you can.
第四步:陳述
陳述你愛(ài)這個(gè)人的原因,盡量多例舉理由。
Step 5: Close devotedly
Close your letter with another sentiment of devotion, like “Forever yours.”
第五步:信的結(jié)尾要誠(chéng)懇
信的結(jié)尾要誠(chéng)懇,例如“永遠(yuǎn)愛(ài)你的人”。
Step 6: Check spelling
Check your spelling. Your missive will quickly change from a turn-on to a turn-off if you write that your lover is “eggskwisit” in all ways.
第六步:檢查拼寫(xiě)
檢查拼寫(xiě)。如果你把所愛(ài)的人的名字寫(xiě)錯(cuò)了,你的信件很快會(huì)被丟掉。
Tip:Wait a day or two and reread your letter several times before mailing it, so you can gain some perspective.
小貼士:在寄信前等一兩天,或是多讀幾遍,以便看得更清。
Step 7: Add a final flourish
Add a final romantic flourish by sealing the letter the old-fashioned way—with melted wax—and lightly spraying on your signature scent, if you have one. Now await your love’s reply!
第七步:做些最后的裝飾
做些最后的裝飾將信按傳統(tǒng)的方式用蠟封住,如果有香水的話,可以在上面噴些。現(xiàn)在等待度對(duì)方的回復(fù)吧。
