100+ Good Morning Messages for Him to Start His Day Smiling

Last updated: January 23, 2025 by Katie

Good morning messages for him aren't just reserved for special occasions. In the chaos of our busy lives, there are days when I only catch glimpses of my husband—maybe a quick kiss through the car window while I'm getting the kids ready or a half-asleep goodnight kiss. To make sure I make him smile in the morning, I like to send him a good morning message each day. It’s my way of letting him know I’m thinking of him as we dive into the whirlwind of our routines. Sometimes the messages are sweet and romantic, other times playful or even a little flirty, but no matter the tone, they always make him smile and remind him that I love him.

When we were dating, sending a good morning text felt like a little spark that kept the butterflies alive until I could see him again. During our two years of long-distance, those messages became even more important—they were my way of reminding him that he was always on my mind.

Some mornings, you’ll instinctively know exactly what to say to make him smile. But we all have those days when finding the right words can feel like a challenge. That’s where these messages come in. Here, you’ll find funny notes to make him laugh, romantic words to remind him how much you love him, "I miss you" messages for when you’re apart, and motivational quotes to give his morning a boost of energy.

"Let me wake up next to you, have coffee in the morning, and wander through the city with your hand in mine, and
I'll be happy for the rest of my little life."
