Simple Texts to Send to a Loved One

Many of us have had someone in our minds that we have been meaning to contact. This is your sign to send them that message, make the phone call, and rekindle that connection. Unfortunately, sometimes knowing the right words to say can be complex and uncertain. We get it, but we don't want the wording of your text message to stop you from sending it. No matter the occasion, we have written an outline for you to follow the next time you're sending a text to someone special. Feel free to copy and paste the messages below, and then adjust them as you please!
