Things to Say to a Person that is Hurting
Hannah Dmyterko

I adore you

I cherish who you are, even in your suffering. You inspire me in so many ways, and just your presence is enough for me. God knew what He was doing when He created you. I admire you.

I’m invested in you

I’m willing to give whatever you need. Whether it be time, money, or just listening ears, I’m all in. I will not leave you stranded.

I hurt for you

My heart breaks for you. Because of your value and worth to me, I feel the weight of your pains on my shoulders.

I will keep your secrets safe

The deepest and darkest places of your heart are valuable to me. I will never uncover them. I want you to confide in me, knowing my loyalty to you.

You are strong

In fact, you’re the strongest person I know. You hold your own, and you can do this. It’s okay that you are allowing the sting of pain to touch you. Just know a sting isn’t going to break you. You’re so much stronger than that.

A place in my heart is yours

You mean so much to me, and I will forever be in your corner.

I’ll love you through it

I won’t let you go. Nothing you do can make me love you less.

You will never walk alone

I promise the loneliness that you feel is a lie. I will hold you when you cannot hold yourself. Hold my hand; you’ll see how firm my grasp is.

Your life is valuable

I hope you know your beauty and worth. I hope that in this darkness, you see all your light. Your life is so precious.

I support you

I’m your biggest fan. I will not fear giving you my opinion, but even more so, I will not fear showing faithfulness to you.

I’m praying for you

I know that we are not capable of controlling anything, so I’m pleading that the One who is, heals your heart and restores your soul. He has so much love and care for you. I am praying you find comfort in Him.

I thank God for you

I praise Him for giving me you. Your life brings me joy. In your affliction, I still praise Him for a person as original as you. You are such a blessing.

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.

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.
