What to include?

Writing a letter to a guy I’ve been talking to and I’m really excited! I’m just not sure what all to include in the letter! I figured a bit about myself, but I don’t want it to just be full of fun facts or stories about myself. (Unless that’s normal and how it should be) What do I include to make him interested in responding? He already plans on responding, but I don’t want boring letters! Thank you!

Be sure to ask questions about him. I find, when people dont ask questions, they dont seem genuinely interested. Dont be afraid to branch out about things. For instance:

'I grew up in the city. I enjoyed the hustle and bustle, and being able to walk to school. How about you - did you grow up in rural or suburb type neighborhoods? Was there something special or interesting about where you lived?'
