to a recent article in the Huffington Post, this could be done via the internet &ndash; perhaps in a similar way to online penpals.<\/p>\n<p> Author Therese Borchard explained she recently started emailing her husband &quot;a brief love letter every day, a note he could add to his self-esteem file&quot;.<\/p>\n<p> The contents of this message vary, such as thanking her partner for small actions that made her happy, or writing down his positive traits.<\/p>\n<p> Ms Borchard said this has now become &quot;a kind of tradition&quot; in her marriage and has made the union stronger.<\/p>\n<p> A recent article from the same news source also suggested introducing texting in a relationship, as couples can spark up fun conversation via SMS with their loved one.<\/p>\n<p> But both parties should avoid jokes in texts, as these could be construed wrongly when there is a lack of intonation, the publication warned.<\/p>\n<p> Posted by Samantha Thompson<br> &nbsp;<img decoding=\"async\"
