Guys, please know girls admire different. We admire men, not boys. Don’t let society decide who you will grow to be and the character of yourself. Be the man who you want your future son to grow up to be.

Look to the Lord, daily and seek Him first. For He is far greater than anything on this earth. So don’t let temptation get in your way of being a godly man, who loves God. For one day, He will provide you with a wonderful girl who loves the Lord just as much. And it will be worth that wait.

1. Cheaters never win. Ever.

This should be common knowledge. Just don’t do it. Girls will always find out in the end…it’s not worth it. Believe me!

2. Nice guys actually don’t finish last.

Contrary to what society tells us, Nice guys don’t finish last. Yeah a girl may be attracted to the “bad boy” for a bit, but in the end a girl is after that good, solid guy who is genuine and kind. That bad boy she went for way back when is not the kind of guy she wants to end up settling down with.

3. Please don’t ever put me first.

Don’t try to make me your everything. I will let you down and will fail time after time. Instead please put God before me ALWAYS. For he won’t fail you. And know I don’t want to ever make you my everything, either. Please pursue Him first and foremost and challenge me to always do the same.

4. Every girl is different. So don’t treat us like we are all the same.

I am not your ex and never will be. Don’t treat me like her. ‘nough said.

5. Be the guy you would want your sister to date.

Respect me the way you would want a guy to respect your sister. I am not an object so please don’t treat me like it. You wouldn’t want your sister to be treat that way, would you?

6. If we have siblings, having their approval is a MUST!!!

If they don’t approve, it’s a no go! Our sibling’s approval will always be something we value.

7. We care less about presents and more about quality time.

It is quite simple. Instead of wasting your money on presents and random gifts for us. Just plan a fun date and spend quality time with me…away from distractions. Time is the best present you can give a girl sometimes. Don’t forget this!

8. We aren't for this whole "playing games" thing.

Please don’t waste your time on me if you are just out to play games. I am not about that….most girls aren’t.

9. It's not always easy to be the good girl.

When hooking up is the norm and purity isn’t seen to be so “pure” anymore, it can be hard to not conform to the thoughts that society is throwing at us. But the girl who is waiting is also herself, worth the wait. Know that she won’t settle and is trying her best daily to fight temptation, despite how hard it can be.

10. Pursue God and challenge me to always do the same.

Please don’t try to get between my relationship with God. I promise I will try to never do the same. Instead grow with me and our faiths, as we push ourselves more towards the Lord TOGETHER.

Girls, don’t settle for the boys. Wait for the man. For God created you beautiful in His sight, and you deserve a man who sees that. Don’t let the boys determine your worth while you wait for the man, either. You are worth pursing, but by a godly man who is seeking God first.

For one day, when that time comes, God will let that man in your life. And when He does, it will be worth all the time you waited. I am quite certain of that. So in the meantime, keep chasing after God and seeking Him, daily.

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
