It's Feb. 14, and you're ready to rumble. Sure, you could break out the construction paper and the scissors that cut in fun shapes to make your partner a literal paper Valentine. But honestly, who has the time? Or a glue stick? In this economy! For a mess-free message, these Valentine's Day texts to send your partner are sweeter than Fun-Dip (and sexier, too).

Whether you think Valentine's day is totally overrated or you wait all year for Feb. 14, V-Day can be a sweet time to tell your boo how much you like them. Among the daily stresses of work and school, and of course, living through a global pandemic, taking a day to give your date some affection may be just what the love doctor ordered. If you're not one for gifts or big displays of affection, a nice text can be the perfect balance of lovely and low-key. And if you're all about the gifts and surprises, a sappy V-Day text can set the tone for a whole day of love.

Here are 11 texts to send your sweetie on Feb. 14.

1

Roses are red, iMessages are blue. I hate green texts, but I'll do it for you.

I love you even though you have an Android, and I had to download WhatsApp to video chat you.

2

Want to celebrate tomorrow when the candy is half-off at CVS?

Nothing says "flirty" like being frugal.

3

I know Valentine's Day is cheesy, but we're so gouda together, I think we're really meant to brie.

You really put the "cute" in charcuterie.

4

I like you every day, but today I got you chocolates.

This is 100% inspired by 500 Days of Summer, and I'm not ashamed.

5

I'm thinking we ditch the fancy dinner and go straight to dessert.

Don't worry, we can eat takeout in bed after.

6

Happy Valentine's Day! I love you more than there are steps in my skincare routine.

And you know I love my serums.

7

I love you so much I'd give you my charger when my phone was on 1%.

Now that is love.

8

Happy Valentine's Day, babe! Happy we get to makeout.

Or fall asleep watching Bridgerton. You know, whatever works.

9

Full disclosure: I forgot to get you a present, but I think I can find a way to make it up to you...

You can also try: "I have to give you my present in person."

10

Do you think everyone knows I have a big crush on you? That's embarrassing...

It's almost like we're dating or something.

11

Happy V-Day! Can't wait to see you later. I'll be thinking of you all day.

Earnest is always in style.
