Siempre.......Always yours?

Question

I'm stuck with how to end a message to a female friend. I would like to end the message with "Your friend for ever" or "Always yours" ? I want to include "siempre" in the words to ensure a close relationship.

Any thoughts?

Answer 1

Tu amigo por siempre or Tu eterno amigo.

Siempre tuyo (romantic implications)

Por siempre.

Answer 2

Tuyo / tuya just means yours. There's nothing romantic about it.

¿Estas cajas son tuyas? (Are these boxes yours?)

That's about as unromantic as it gets.

.

However, siempre tuyo means always yours, and that has romantic implications as you are indicating that you belong to the person to whom you're speaking.

"Always yours" in English could indicate romantic feelings but also a close, faithful friendship. I guess in Spanish the phrase leans more toward the romantic side. - webdunce, Feb 26, 2011

But my main point is that tuyo / tuya is not a romantic word in and of itself. - webdunce, Feb 26, 2011

Answer 3

I note the use of tuya / tuyo instead of tu being more personal / possessive - is this correct? For example does "Me alegro mucho de tener noticias tuyas!!" have any romantic implications, or is it just close friendship?

Noticias tuyas ---> tuyas is a pronoun here where as Tus noticias --> tus is an adjective. I think you may be right in it sounds closer and more familiar when the pronoun is used instead of the adjectve.

I could not affirm that it has romantic implications, just by the use of the possessive pronoun tuyo/s/a/as. It's the nouns that seal the deal.

Answer 4

Tu amigo, por siempre y para siempre.

Your friend, forever and ever.

Thats how I end mine to my female friends. If you want to let her know your interested. Let her know she is muy linda .

Answer 5

Thank you - I note the use of tuya / tuyo instead of tu being more personal / possessive - is this correct? For example does "Me alegro mucho de tener noticias tuyas!!" have any romantic implications, or is it just close friendship? It has cheered me up to hear from you (because you are a good friend), or It has cheered me up to hear from you (because I maybe want to be more than a friend).

Sorry for the questions, but I need to undestand the emotion behind the written word which is not easy!

Gracias
