Did you know? May 20th has the cult status of being the day for confessing of love.
In popular culture, the numbers 520 signifies ‘I love you’, which stems from the resemblance in their Chinese pronunciations (五二零 = 我爱你).
Confessing of love is never an easy task. It’s akin to defusing a time bomb.
Do it wrong and you would trigger an explosion of awkwardness, sounding the death knell to the friendship. Wait too long and your romantic dreams would inevitably suffer the same fate.
But but but... if you do it right, you will live happily ever after. Okay, maybe not ever after, but at least while the dopamine lasts.
If you are not good with words, why not say in it a song instead? The choice of the song, however, is not that straightforward. Too aggressive and you will scare them away. Too subtle and they may not get the message.
Fret not, Chords Haven is here to help with 5 perfect songs for confessing your love under different contexts.
