Since I was little, I always ended my letters with "love" or "yours truly".

But I'm ending them with "I'm standing behind you as you read this" for now on

Thank you for that.

I always finish a letter with

Sincerely yours, Jake Kostik (in my signature)

I don't ever think of ending it any other way.

Markeith21 : Your name is Kenny?!

Any who, I can't remember the last time I wrote a letter!

If I were to write a letter right now... I would end it with Your Majesty, Ken or something along those lines.

I haven't written an actual letter in ages, but whenever I send cards to my parents I usually sign them as, "The good one". When I send email at work, I typically end with "Many thanks," or sometimes "Sincerly," It really depends on the tone of the rest of the message.

I usually put sincerely at the end of my letter. The only time I write a letter is when a teacher tell me to write a letter. So thats why I would end it that way.

I don't write to any loved ones, simply because I really don't need to, but for every other letter, or even long email to someone who may not have heard me before, perhaps like a Youtuber or some random person on a forum perhaps, I always write the Email or Private Message like a letter and always end it with a "Sincerely" And then my Username at the bottom.


Just a habit of mine but it seems the most fitting to me.

For me , the best way to end a letter whether it is a friendly kind of letter , a business letter , a thank you letter , an application letter , formal letter , a birthday letter , a reference letter , a sales letter , and many more is by saying the phrase " Sincerely Yours " , " Your Friend " and " Yours Truly " .. I usually use the phrase " Yours Truly " when ending a letter , I don't usually make letters except on our english class at school . I made different kinds of letters and many are friendly letters . When i am making a friendly letter of my own , I use " Your Friend " , but when i make an apology letter i use " Sincerely  Yours " . I love making letters , especially when i use my own words and when it is allowed to use informal words like " Hey Dude " , Wazzup " and " Cya " because i get to express my own feelings more effectively .

When I was younger I use to end a letter by saying Thanks or Thank You Jay but I now end a letter by saying Sincerely because it sounds kind and I am a nice person. If anyone did not know Jay is my real name.

It all depends on the person I'm writing to. If it's someone I don't know or barely know, I use Sincerely. If it's someone I know pretty well or am extremely close to, I use Yours Truly. So it just depends on the person and what kind of letter it is.

Well you can cross off saying the brother/sister is hot and to tell them hi. Not something you want to say in a letter (heck I wouldn't even say it to the person's face). Sencerly or Thank you for your attention Mr. Mr.

Depends on who the letter is to and what it is for. If it is to family, then I typically end my letters with "Love, Desi." Same with if it is to a close friend. However, if it's not family or friends, I try to stick to "Sincerely."

Sincerely is definitely the most widely used, I'd say. And it fits pretty much every possible situation.
