10 Signs Your Dog Is Your Best Friend
Sam Drew

Obviously, you tell them everything, you miss them when you are a part, and you have a lot in common! But here are some more ways to tell they are your bestie 5ever:

1. If he/she is the first person you think of when you are sad or lonely

No better way to cheer up than to cuddle with the one who can always sense when you are upset.

2. When you are on vacation and your whole family can't help but think “where's (dog's name)?”

Your pup is definitely part of the family and family time just doesn't feel right without them.

3. You talk to your dog more than real humans

And they listen far better. It is all in their big beautiful eyes that stare up at you and respond I understand.

4. You want them to enjoy your meals as much as you do

As long as they are polite beggars, the food will continue to mysteriously fall on the floor. Because when dealing with your best friend, what's mine is yours is the only motto.

5. They are perfect company, like that friend that you can just do nothing with and be perfectly content

They sit there and you sit there and all is right in the world.

6. They are much easier to get along with than your siblings

So by nature, you have many more photos of and with them that you proudly show to all your human friends (way too often).

7. Their excitement is contagious

When you return home after time apart and they run to the door and sniff you like crazy with their tail wagging, you feel more loved than ever before.

8. They motivate you

When my dog hears the word walk, she runs in circles. How could I say no to exercising when it makes her so happy?

9. They accept you for how you are

They don't care what you look like and how much you talk as long as you rub their tummy and scratch their ears and spend time with them.

10.They unconditionally love you and you never want to imagine life without them

Whoever decided dog years are a thing and made it so we constantly outlive our best friends was satan. You will never forget the time and love you shared with your dog.


They get you through everything and in the end, isn't that what best friends are for?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
