40 Cute Goodnight Texts And Why They Work

If you’ve got someone special on your mind, sometimes the best way the end the day is with a cute goodnight text to them. It’s a great and simple way to let them know you’re thinking of them and to get them thinking of you. Whether you’re already in a relationship with them or you’re hoping soon to be, this is a great thing to do. You’ll get a rush of feelings by letting them know you’re thinking of them and they’ll feel loved knowing that you are. And, if they send a message back, you’ll no doubt be on cloud nine as you dream tonight.

While you may want to send them a message, sometimes knowing exactly what to text someone can be tricky. All too often we’re overcome by our shyness and send nothing at all. This is a big no, no! How are they ever going to know what you’re thinking or how you feel if you don’t find some courage and tell them? Even if you’re not shy, deciding what to write can still be a nightmare. That’s why I’ve come up with a fool proof list of 40 (yes, 40!) of the best cute goodnight texts. There’s a mix of bold, subtle, poetic, wise and loving messages so you’ll no doubt be able to find a message for any mood or situation.

Here goes…

For The Couples

If you’re already in a relationship and are looking for something fun, cute, loving or bold to send your other half, this list is perfect. These cute messages work because they’re something to help you express exactly how you feel towards your partner, something to make them feel loved and to get them thinking of you if they weren’t already too.

  • I love you, my sweet.
  • I couldn’t sleep until I told you how much I missed you. Goodnight, my love.
  • Everyday I love you more than I did the day before. I can’t image how I could possibly love you more than I do but somehow everyday I manage it. I can’t wait for tomorrow to love you more again.
  • I started counting one star in the sky for each reason I love you…Then I ran out of stars and I realized the reasons are infinite.
  • Goodnight, my prince, my love, my everything. Sleep well and dream of your princess.
  • You mean the world to me, don’t forget that. Goodnight and sweet dreams.
  • The thoughts of how much I love you are keeping me awake longer and longer each night
  • My day has been hectic, it’s been non stop and I never got to see you. It was hard but  the thought of falling asleep without saying goodnight to you was unbearable. Goodnight, sleep tight, I can’t wait until the next time I see you.
  • You’re in my heart tonight, tomorrow and forever. Sweet dreams, handsome.
  • You prove to me more each day why I should love you. I’m going to spend every day giving you reasons to love me.
  • I know that you are the one, because when we are apart I feel incomplete. I never want to be without you. Goodnight.

For The Couples To Be

If you’re not already in a relationship but know exactly who you want to be in a one with, you need to read this section. Whether the person you’re falling for is a friend or just a classmate, so long as you know them at least a little these texts are great. I’ll admit, some of them are extremely bold but sometimes you need that and some of them are dependent on having spent time with the person in question too. Either way, you’re sure to find something on the list to suit your needs.

These messages work because they let this person know you’re thinking of them and (if you send a subtle message) they’ll get them wondering why you’re thinking of them and their mind will begin to explore the possibilities of you two being a couple.

  • Today was perfect.
  • I miss you already.

  • Dream of me.
  • If I wish hard enough, maybe my dream will come true and I’ll wake up next to you.
  • Do you think about me before you go to sleep?
  • Sweet dreams, I hope I’m in them. You’re already in mine.
  • I want to be the girl you can’t go to sleep without thinking about and you can’t go a day without loving.

For Couples And Couples To Be

Some cute goodnight text messages could be used for both couples and couples to be so instead of listing them all twice I’ve listed them all here. Again, some of them are bold and daring but, like I said before, there’s nothing wrong with that. You need to let this person know how you feel somehow so why not be up front about it?

Here comes a mix of the daring, the sickly sweet and the cutest quotes you’ve ever heard…

  • You’ll be the last think I think of before I fall asleep and the first thing I think of when I wake up.
  • Dreaming keeps me going. It means I don’t have to be apart from you for so long
  • Starlight, star-bright, you’re the only star I see tonight.
  • I don’t want to fall asleep because reality with you is better than any dream.
  • During the day I keep myself busy and sometimes time passes. By night, I really miss you.
  • I’d walk a million miles to sleep with you tonight.
  • I keep hugging the pillow and wishing it was you. It’s hard not being with you.
  • Goodnight, handsome.
  • I just wanted to let you know I’m thinking of you.
  • Hey! Just wanted to say good night. Sweet dreams. Hugs. Kisses. Rainbows. Moons. Stars. Supernovas.

Goodnight Poems

If all else fails, rhyme. Poems are perhaps the most expressive form of writing there is so combining them with a text (which is often considered rather impersonal) can be a great mix. These cute goodnight poems can be used whether you’re in a relationship or are still getting close to the certain someone.

These texts work simply for the fact they are cute and that an immense amount of thought and love has been put into each of them. Even if you didn’t write them, your special someone will love that you took the time to look them up and feel flattered that you feel that way about them.

  • My day may be hectic.
    My schedule may be tight.
    But I would never let the day end
    without saying Good night and. Sweet dreams!
  • As the day turns into night, keep your worries out of sight. Close your eyes and go to sleep, all the good times are yours to keep. Sweet dreams & Good Night.
  • Goodnight, sleep tight, dream of me with all your might.
  • The stars lean down to kiss you and I lie awake and miss you.
