The Right Moment to Send Love Messages While Reconciling

The right moment for Love Messages While Reconciling is soon after the disagreement when you can follow through on what you promise. If you can pick up the blue mug, fix the mistake or clarify a line in a text within the hour, send the message now.

That message works because it names the object and the action you will take. Prompt action makes the apology credible.
