Power Love Cards™ are for real life situations. They can't guarantee the results we want. They can only help people say what they want to say. Always read each card carefully before giving it to be sure it really does say what you want to say! You may want to scratch out or add thoughts to make it truly reflect your own feelings.
For which real Life Events might you, or someone you know, need a Power Love Card™? Here are some examples!
① A teen (or an adult) wants to talk to someone they see everyday. It just seems as though the occasion is never right for it to happen. Sometimes, you'd just like to "Say Hi!" Try This Power Love Card™. Say Hi.
② A teen girl [or boy] is seeing a boy. He says that he loves her, but in her heart she knows that he does not. Everyone can see that he isn't treating her like someone he really loves. Even though she would like to be with him, she knows that she should not be. She has already talked about this with him before. It is finally time to leave. "I Have Loved You" may say what has to be said. Take a look at this Power Love Letter™. I Have Loved You.
③ A teen girl has been seeing someone for a while. She likes him a lot but is determined to do the right thing in her life. He seems a little too excited about her. It's making her uncomfortable.

Teen boys and adults may also find this card helpful. Respect My Limits.

You talk about that other person your "friend" is seeing. It's okay. After all, you're "just friends!" But, in you, something changed long ago. You're no longer feeling like "just a friend." It hurts when you hear about who else your "friend" is seeing. It's time to say something. This is no longer a simple friendship. It is now a full and real love! But what will your "friend" say? It's time to ask that your friendship be seen with new eyes, because you know you really are... More Than "Just a Friend."
⑭ Your life revolves around the person you love! Isn't it time to marry? Unique in the world are TWO Power Love Cards™ proposing marriage! Give one of these cards.

⑰ Sadness and hurting. A marriage isn't working. Both are so frustrated. The marriage started with love but it seems to be gone now. What happened? Can they somehow make it work out anyway? And what will a separation or divorce do to the children! This is always a difficult situation. If it must finally happen, sit down and carefully tell the children what is happening. Constantly tell them that you both still love them. There are two Power Love Letters™ for you to consider, one for older teenagers, and one for those a little younger. Read both cards to be sure they say what you want to say. After talking to your children, leave a card with each of them. The cards might help to speak for each of you when you aren't there. Be sure to write your own thoughts in the Power Love Space™on the back of each card. It might not fix things, but the "Always Your Parents" Power Love Letters™ may help remind the children that they are still loved. Always. Read each card to be sure it is appropriate for your children.
