Tolexander: This isn't a question for the pikins born from the last decade of the last century.

I felt so elated seeing a letter written to me by my first gurl then. Not funny i just burnt the letter last year after a decade of keeping it and reading it daily for the first 2 years i was given! Lol.

krazydave: Hahah... Nice topic bro @OP

Love letters, were sOo romantic, especially when we were in the hostel and you stay up all night drafting the emotions in your heart on a piece of paper and the best part is, making the bravest decision of delivering your letter

Naetochukwu: I wish those days will return.

Tolexander: Another interesting parts of the letter writing is that it isn't something you can just write in a matter of seconds.
You will need sitting down for hours or days to draft after consulting dictionaries and friends that are gurus in the line. Most times they are always of the same verses. Cos the verses are from the days of Witney Houston, Boys II men (the 80 blues in short), Celine Dion and later, westlifes.

After drafting the letter, one would now sit down calmly to write on a clean sheet of paper with very fine handwriting or call on a trusted friend or sib with a very fine handwriting to help write the letter drafted with close monitoring so that there won't be any mistake. And if there is, that's gonna be another paper.

Many times, it isn't given by the person trying to woo the lady/guy but the accomplice.

Emyemyberry: Lol@op.......
Those days in sec. Skul a friends of mine started like this
'this is my symbol to symbolise my symbolism,i swear that i love u,i want u to be my girlfriend,hope you will reply me soon,dnt keep me waiting else i go die o

Tolexander: those days were good bro!

One would keep the letters for long at home reading and meditating on it, sustaining the emotional feeling. The problem with the letter then was if one's parent(s] sees it, one would definitely be in trouble.
A friend's mum didn't buy him 'aso odun'(xmas and new year wears) just because of a love letter he wrote to his classmate was intercepted by his classmates and given to the teacher. His mum had to be invited by the teacher and given the letter.

Many people won't wanna keep a SMS for long cos it is an exhibit. Most especially the players.

Rival:

Some classmates hen! Maybe the classmate also had interest in the girl! Back in the secondary school days, men, that was sweet!

Rival:

So did your friend die?
