125 Good Night Text Ideas for Girlfriend, Boyfriend, or Any Friend

There’s something comforting about ending the day with a good night text. It’s a tiny message, but it can make someone feel cared about. It’s also a good way of telling the other person that you’re going to sleep soon and might not reply to their texts for the next 8 hours or so. A simple “good night” can feel like a little hug that says “talk to you later!” Then, once you wake up, you can send them a good morning text message to start off their day.

And good night texts aren’t just for dating. You can send them to a boyfriend, girlfriend, friend, or even a family member. It’s an easy way to stay connected and create a small daily tradition which relationship experts often describe as the kind of small moment that builds closeness over time.

Personalizing Good Night Texts

A good night text hits harder when it feels real, not copied and pasted. The easiest way to personalize it is to mention something specific from their day:

  • “Good night! Good luck on your test tomorrow!”
  • “Good night. I’m still laughing about the joke you said at lunch.”
  • “Sleep tight! I can’t wait to celebrate your birthday this weekend!”

At the end of the day, small customization shows that you’ve put some thought into your message. Think back on the day, or what is in store on the next day, to come up with something you can reference while texting them good night.
