A partner isn't just someone you can depend on to kiss you, cuddle you, and take cute solo shots of you on vacation. A great relationship tends to provide just as much support as it does passion. You and your love are a team, and you should have each other's backs, even when the going gets tough. Sometimes, that can be as simple as sending a supportive message when you know they're nervous, overwhelmed, or stressed out. Even if you only have time to send your partner an encouraging text before a big day, a thoughtful message can really help lift their spirits.
Maybe your SO has an important test or intimidating presentation coming up. Maybe they're feeling nervous for their impending job or internship interview. Though I'm sure they'd love to receive an elaborate gift basket or spa day certificate from you, a short and sweet message of support can sometimes mean just as much. As OMI once sang, "Oh, I think that I found myself a cheerleader. She is always right there when I need her." If you want to be there for your SO, here are a few motivational texts you can send to keep them calm, cool, and collected.
It never hurts to remind your boo just how much you care, and they could definitely use a reminder if they're feeling tense. These cute texts might help put them at ease.
- "You make me unbelievably proud, today and every day."
- "You're amazing and that will never change, no matter what happens today."
- "Remember: You've worked hard for this, and you couldn't be more prepared if you tried."
- "If I wasn't me, then I'd be jealous of me for dating someone as smart and accomplished as you."
- "I would wish you good luck, but I know you don't need it."
If you feel like your SO needs a confidence boost, try giving them a little #inspo to make it through the day. One of these texts might provide them with the optimism they need to thrive.
- "A diamond is just a lump of coal that did well under pressure. You've got this!"
- "You are Beyoncé, always. You're going to slay today."
- "You smell like pine needles and have a face like sunshine. Go get 'em, tiger!"
- "Make like a proton and be positive. You have nothing to worry about."
- "Go get that 🍞🥖🥐 today."
Offering your partner support through a text costs nothing and can mean everything. The best part: Your SO will no doubt return the favor when you need a boost yourself.
