Ever found yourself staring at your phone, struggling to find the right words to text your ex? You’re not alone. As someone who professionally crafts emotional texts for people reaching out to their exes, I’ve turned this modern dilemma into a thriving side hustle that charges $25 per message. What began as helping a friend has evolved into a unique service that combines emotional intelligence with wordsmithing.
Why people outsource their heartfelt messages
Many clients come to me paralyzed by anxiety or conflicting emotions. “I tried writing to my ex fifteen times, but everything sounded either too desperate or too cold,” shares Jamie, a recent client who needed closure after a three-year relationship. Finding the perfect emotional balance is what people are willing to pay for.
“Professional message writing isn’t about being inauthentic—it’s about articulating what you truly feel when emotions cloud your ability to express yourself clearly,” explains Dr. Marina Cohen, relationship psychologist.
The art of crafting the perfect emotional text
Creating these messages is like being an emotional translator. I don’t invent feelings; I refine and articulate what’s already there. My process involves a detailed intake questionnaire that helps me understand the relationship’s history, the breakup context, and what the client hopes to achieve with the message.
More than just a message service
My role often extends beyond writing. Many clients find the process itself therapeutic, similar to other unexpected therapeutic businesses. The service becomes a form of emotional coaching where we discuss:
- Clarifying their true intentions
- Setting realistic expectations
- Preparing for potential responses
- Finding closure regardless of outcome
The ethics behind emotional outsourcing
Some question whether paying someone to write such personal communications is ethical. “It’s no different than hiring a speechwriter for an important occasion,” argues Marcus Teller, who used my services after a difficult breakup. “The feelings are authentic, but the delivery is refined.”
Success stories that make it worthwhile
The most rewarding aspect is hearing back from clients. Like Sarah, who was struggling financially after a financial setback and needed to reconnect with an ex who could provide emotional support during her recovery. The carefully crafted message led to a healing conversation.
Tips for writing your own emotional texts
For those wanting to craft their own messages, I recommend:
- Write when calm, not emotionally triggered
- Focus on “I” statements rather than accusations
- Be clear about your intentions
- Avoid rehashing old arguments
A modern evolution of communication
Just as people have embraced personal transformations and alternative solutions in other aspects of life, outsourcing emotional communication is becoming increasingly accepted. My service is like a bridge between raw emotions and effective communication.
“In a world where so much connection happens through screens, having the right words can mean the difference between healing and further heartbreak,” notes communication expert Dr. Leila Jamal.
Could this service help you find closure?
Whether you’re seeking reconciliation, closure, or just a way to express yourself clearly, services like mine offer a unique solution. Like a skilled photographer capturing your best angle, I help showcase your authentic emotions in their best light. Perhaps the most valuable aspect isn’t just the perfectly crafted message, but the clarity you gain in the process.
