LDR Date Idea: Write Love Letters Together

Words can make your heart melt like butter

Last weekend, I revisited Cubao X after a nice morning at The Collective. And so I finally got to check out the I Love You Store which, I wanted to visit for the longest time. I, of course, did not end up buying anything but was able to catch a glimpse of a very interesting exhibit which is the inspiration for this date idea…

Ge Mapa has this brilliant idea of sewing the words of Love Letters Never Sent. Yes, these pieces were handsewn by the artist himself. As in binurda in Filipino. I was not able to take pictures of all the pieces because I do want you to see it for yourself. Of course! Here are two of the pieces that struck me the most:

WOW di ba? These words capture the feelings I have for Dodong. As in! So cheezy but so romantic. I am more of the romantic type and I'd love if we could both write each other love letters at the same time. Then send them via snail mail (which would hopefully arrive safely in good hands).

Wouldn't it be sweet to surprise one another with old-fashioned, handwritten sweet nothings?

Sigh. I am a sucker for romance. How I wish Dodong would do this with me. But I highly doubt it, so I am sharing this idea with you guys instead At least, I could share the love with others right?

Love the distance,

Inday I. Nagintay
