How To Write A Letter To Your Best Friend?

A letter to your best friend must contain your innermost feelings. Usually, there is no filter between best friends and this is the best time to let all your love out without keeping anything back. Here are some tips to write a meaningful letter to your best friend.

  1. Choose the right tone: How is your relationship with your friend? Choose the tone of the letter accordingly. If you are both always cracking jokes and pulling each other’s legs, you can keep it light. On the other hand, if you are more serious, the letter should be serious, too. If you have known each other since the beginning and can talk about anything under the sun, then you can mix things up.
  2. Create a structure: Start with a warm greeting and then proceed on to sharing good memories and thoughts. If there is a recent experience you shared, you can include that, too. Another idea is to focus on a particular theme such as gratitude and basing your letter on it.
  3. Write about special things: In a friendship, there are things that only you two share. These things may be physical or even an experience. Sharing these things shows the appreciation you have for your friend. Talk about how they have supported you in good times and bad. Include some inside jokes to keep the tone light.

Give the letter to your best friend on a good day. Make sure you end the letter with a promise or an uplifting message to keep the mood positive.

I can’t believe you are 21 already. It feels like yesterday when you walked into the classroom in kindergarten, and our teacher made you sit beside me. I guess I have to thank Mrs. Palmer for bringing you into my life. Thank you for staying by my side for all these years.

I promise I will do the same.

Cheers to our special friendship, and here’s to more!

It has been twelve years since then, and you are still that crazy, bubbly person. There is never a dull moment with you. We have made so many memories together, and I hope we get to make more. After all, we still have a lot left to do on our bucket list. Let’s achieve all our goals together!

Your best friend,

8. My Dear Friend,

I have been thinking of you for the last few days and I wanted to check in on you. It has been so long since we talked and I hope you are doing well. I was plucking oranges from my garden when I remembered how we used to “steal” oranges for our picnic in the backyard. Those were the days. Although it feels like it was yesterday, so much has changed.
Thinking about you gave me a rush of mixed emotions, joy, nostalgia, and even sadness, now that we are all grown up. I miss that childhood innocence and I miss you. I hope we get to meet each other again, soon.

All my love for you,
[Your Name]

9. Hey best friend,

A little birdie told me that you are having a rough day, so I am here to cheer you up. I know these tough times are hard to deal with, but you are a strong, kind, and magnificent person, capable of winning against all odds. Don’t forget to take care of yourself and focus on your well-being. Others’ opinions and nasty comments don’t matter because you are talented and fabulous in your way. And I am here for you always, so don’t bottle up your feelings when you have me to rant to. I may not have all the answers, but I will bring ice cream, cookies, and a shoulder to cry on.

So turn your frown upside down and show everyone how brilliant you are. I love you!

Your friend,
[Your name]

10. Dear bestie,

It’s exam week, and since I know how deep you fall into studying mode, I am here to remind you to take care of yourself. No matter how important studies are, take some breaks in between to relax. Keep yourself hydrated, and by that, I mean water, not coffee.

I know coffee helps to stay awake at night but drinking too much is not good for you. It will stop you from having a good night’s sleep. Eat healthy foods and don’t even think about missing meals. Most importantly, you will do great, so don’t panic too much.

If you need any help, you can always reach out to me. We can study together and make flashcards to memorize. All the best!

With love,
[Your name]

11. Dear [friend’s name],

Do you realize that I only have you to rely on when things go tough in this world? I am ever-ready to face challenges and feel confident in your constant encouragement. I know you will always support me when everything around me crumbles. I appreciate your affection and friendship. I want you to know that I believe the world belongs to you. You are a giving person who doesn’t expect anything in return. I hope you are aware of how special and remarkable you are.

With all my love and gratitude,
[Your name]

12. Dear [friend’s name],

When you enter the room, everyone turns to face you. Your laughter, grin, and overall attitude instantly brighten up any situation. You being my best friend allows me to take in your positivity and radiance, which I adore. You don’t have to make an effort to be so fantastic; it’s just how you were created. You are inherently kind and generous, while the rest of us attempt to be half as amazing as you are. Love you to the moon and back.

With love,
[Your name]

It’s not easy to talk about your feelings out loud, even with your best friends. But an emotional letter is an excellent way of articulating your fondness and emotions. It’s also a thoughtful gesture of endearment.

14. To A Friend Who is Moving

Hey Buddy,

I just wanted to say how much I will miss not having you around. It will be weird, especially on the baseball field. Those games won’t be the same without you. This isn’t goodbye, right? We’ll keep in touch for sure. Phone calls, texts, maybe I’ll even catch a game in your new city sometime soon. Let’s ensure we keep what we’ve got and not drift apart just because the distance is longer.
I wish you all the best with the move. Know that I’m here cheering you on and looking forward to our next game, wherever possible.

Take care, man.

[Your Name]

15. Dear [name],

When I look back at all these years that we have spent together and how we met, I start believing in fate. We, becoming best friends, had to be the magic of destiny. No one understands me as well as you do. You can catch the slightest changes in my mood, and I honestly feel you can read my mind. An incredible person, inside and out, you have given me the most significant life lessons that have made me the person I am today.

Thank you for being the most wonderful best friend anyone could ever ask for. I promise to support and cheer for you in every way possible. Let’s stay together forever!

With all my love,
[Your name]

16. To my dearest [name],

I don’t think I tell you enough about how much you mean to me. You have seen me in my worst times, and yet here you are, protecting and loving me every single day. You are my safe space, where I feel accepted and comfortable, even when my life falls apart. As someone who has only ever been in toxic relationships, you showed me what wonders a healthy relationship could do to a person. Today, I get the strength to live each day happily because of you. You are my rock, and I hope I make you as proud as I am of you.

I wish I could say this to you face-to-face, but we both know the tears won’t stop. I hope you get to experience all the beautiful things in life, and I hope you will take me along.

Lots of love,
[Your name]

17. To my sweetest [name],

Remember that time we read about soulmates and thought it was all fantasy? But when I think of us, I think it makes a lot of sense. It’s not easy to find people in your life who you can trust unconditionally, who you can count on, and never have to worry about getting hurt. You push me to become a better person and make me laugh even when things get complicated.

When I think about the future, I get worried at times. What if we are forced to move to different cities for college or work? Will we slowly drift apart and become fading memories? I don’t know what will happen, but when you make a silly face or say something funny, I realize we will stay best friends for a long time. Our bond is far stronger than distance or other adversities. Also, do you know that the red string of fate is unending?

Your soulmate,
[your name]

18. Lovely bestie,

To have a friend means to have a lovely companion for life. You are an angel in real life, which is something I never imagined was possible on Earth. I would not swap my relationship with you for anything in the world, not even a million dollars! I am grateful that I can always rely on you. Whether it be more significant things like ensuring I have the nicest birthday celebration ever or lesser ones like constantly lending a hand to grasp when times are difficult, I know you are always there for me.

No one can ever replace your place in my life; you shall always hold a special place in my heart.

[Your name]

19. My dearest best friend,

Before you came into my life, I had never experienced this kind of friendship and attachment. You are certainly a one-of-a-kind individual and the ideal friend for me. Having you in my life has made everything wonderful. We have experienced ups and downs, but we have always remained close. Some have attempted to sever our friendship over the years, but it has only gotten stronger. We have remained companions no matter how far apart we are. Having you as my best friend is a blessing. You are extremely important to me, and I won’t ever let our friendship wane.

With love,
[Your name]

20. Hello [best friend’s name],

I sometimes wonder how I managed to be so fortunate to have friends like I do, especially you. Even after all that happened, we continue to smile until our cheeks hurt and laugh till we have tears in our eyes. Even if we have a rough patch in our friendship, one look at your picture or one text from you is all it takes for me to experience the warmth of your friendship all over again. You are my type! My closest companion, my dearest pal, and my biggest cheerleader. You are never allowed to leave me; I hope you know that!

Your forever bestie,

‘Open When’ Letters For Best Friend

If your best friend is moving somewhere far or you want to give them little surprises when they least expect it, the ‘open when’ letters are an innovative way of showing your love. Give them some mystery through these kind of letters.

21. Open when you need a laugh

Hey bestie,

Is the new city giving you a hard time? Well, take a break and join me on a ride down memory lane. First stop, fifth-grade recess. Remember when I was trying to ride the swing and accidentally face-planted on the ground? I think my nose still hurts, but it sure gave you a good laugh then. It was also the day we became friends.

Also, that time we went to Kevin’s birthday party and had more cake on our faces and hair than our tummy? I even found the photo, so I am sending it to you. I know work is stressing you out but relax and don’t take life too seriously. Sit back and think about these memories for a good laugh.

Love,
[Your name]

protip_icon Quick tip
Include pictures, posters, or notes that evoke funny shared memories. These additions make the experience more impactful.

22. Open when you feel lonely

Dear [name],

If you are opening this letter now, it means life isn’t being kind to you. If I was there with you, we could cuddle, watch your favorite movies, and scream our frustration away. But since I’m not, how about you put on the playlist we curated together and light those fragrant candles I gave you for your birthday. Also, have you eaten? Order a pizza and try to take your mind off all that’s bothering you. Most importantly, call me?

Love,
[Your name]

23. Open when you doubt yourself

[Name],

I have been with you since we were in diapers. I had cheered for you when you won your first spelling bee contest, when you were the topper of our batch, when you got into the college of your dreams, and every other achievement. So believe me when I say that you are an incredible person and have worked immensely hard to reach this position. You are tenacious, determined, strong, and the most deserving person I know.

Don’t let anyone or anything make you believe that you cannot achieve greatness because that’s a lie. You can achieve anything if you set your mind to it. I believe in you.

Your cheerleader for life,
[Your name]

24. Open when you are celebrating a milestone

Hey, my incredible friend,

There are countless occasions in life to rejoice, both great and small. So, open this letter when you finally achieve that long-awaited promotion at your workplace.

You will discover a tiny party popper, a tiny confetti packet, and this loving note from me inside. I am delighted for you and want to share your happiness. Your victories are also mine, and I am incredibly proud of everything you have accomplished.

Cheers and congratulations,
[Your name]

25. Open when you are feeling stressed

Dear [best friend’s name],

Sometimes, it seems like everything is piling up, and life can seem fairly chaotic. I want to convey through this letter that no matter how challenging the day is, it shall pass.You will find a soothing tea bag to help you relax, a calming playlist I have put together just for you, and a handwritten message outlining some of my favorite stress-reduction methods. Remember that it’s acceptable to prioritize self-care and take a break. You can do this. I want you to always believe in yourself and know I am just a call away!

Take care and stay strong,
[Your name]

26. Open when you need an energy boost

Hey there, bestie,

I know that life can throw its fair share of curveballs, and sometimes, we all need a little extra boost to get going. So, when you’re feeling down or in need of some positivity, know that you are doing your best, and you will reap the benefits of it sooner or later. I want you to take a break, realign yourself, call me up so we can spill some gossip together, treat yourself to your favorite food, and watch a few silly movies to improve yourself. You will feel better, for sure.

Sending you loads of love and laughter,
[Your name]

If you and your best friend haven’t seen each other for a long time and you are missing the closeness, write them a letter to let them know about your feelings.

38. Dear [name],

It has been exactly one year, four months, and 24 days since I last saw you. Are you wondering how I know? Because I miss you so much, and I might have obsessively kept count to make myself feel better.

There’s so much we need to talk about. I need to show you all the new restaurants that have opened up in the area, and you need to tell me everything about your new place. You must have met many new people there, but you are not allowed to forget me, okay? I am your soul partner, and your parents love me, so there’s no way anyone can take my place.

Please come to visit me soon. I have so much gossip that I think I might burst.

Love you,
[Your name]

39. Sweetest [name],

I have been thinking about our childhood memories a lot. Mum discovered an old photo album while cleaning, and it has so many pictures of us. It’s incredible how fast time flies. It seems like yesterday we were writing on our scrapbooks, and talking about life goals and promises. We have spent practically every waking moment together ever since we met, and now it feels weird not being able to meet you whenever I want.

Sometimes I forget that you are not in the house next door, a window’s reach away. But I’m so proud of you for chasing your dreams and taking risks along the way. I hope you are taking care of yourself. And remember that I’m only a phone call away. I miss you terribly.

Love you,

I value our friendship greatly, and you know I still think about you. I miss you and cannot wait to catch up with you. I am eager to see you again, and I love you so much because you are the best thing that has ever happened to me.

Until we meet again,
Love and best wishes,

41. Dear [best friend’s name],

I have been thinking about all of the enjoyable times we have shared since you shifted to another city a few months ago. You have always been my best buddy and most cherished companion. Although we have disagreed on several things in the past, that only strengthened our friendship. When you moved away, we both understood how special our bond was. I frequently call you because I really miss hearing your voice. Call me back, and let’s catch up soon.

Waiting for your call,
[Your name]

42. My dearest [best friend’s name],

Can you believe that we have been friends for eleven years now? You have been my greatest pillar of support and my dearest buddy over the years. You make me beam with excitement and make my heart overflow with joy every day! I never imagined we would have to stay apart one day, yet here we are. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of you or wish I could be with you again. No matter how far away you are, my heart yearns for your presence. Hope we get a chance to meet soon.
Until then, take care, stay safe, and remember that you are deeply missed and loved.

With all my heart,
