13 Things Your High School Friends Know That Your College Friends Never Will
Kat Horwedel

Your college friends may be the here and now that get to spend the most time with you, but your high school friends are your true best friends that you'll have forever. They've been with you -- and know it all -- from the hardest, most embarrassing, and emotional times of your life and there's no one better than them.

1. All of your crushes and relationship details since ninth grade.

They helped you stalk your crush on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, anything really. They know all about your obsessions, and all of the boys that let you down.

2. What you looked like before highlights, before your braces came off, during your awkward stage.

Every birthday you fear that your high school friends will post a collage of your most embarrassing pictures.

3. The hard times you went through.

Whether it was parents getting divorced, a family member dying, or just relationship problems, they know everything and were always there to pick up the pieces.

4. What lunch table you sat at and your entire class schedule.

Or they went out to eat with you every day except chicken nugget and pizza day.

5. Everything thing that Regina did to make you hate her.

Your college friends may just know her as a girl from high school you don't like. Your high school friends know her as someone you deeply hate and everything about her that annoyed you.

6. Regrettable hair styles.

They didn't judge you the time you were a ginger, or those awful lowlights and highlights. Now, you look back at old pictures and laugh.

7. How old you were when you got boobs.

Yours kept growing and growing while theirs were at a stand still. Honestly, it shaped your group's dynamic for life.

8. Your pet's names.

They loved your pets like your own and vice versa.

9. Your phone number and address.

Your college friends only know your current address and maybe what dorm you lived in freshman year. But if you needed to call your high school friends and for some reason didn't have your cell phone, you would still be able to dial their number.

10. Your go-to selfie poses.

They know exactly how you're going to pose for a group photo or just a Snapchat. Whether it's a smile, the classic duck face, the tongue out, or cheesy grin.

11. Embarrassing nicknames your family calls you.

If your parents come to visit you at college you have warned your parents numerous times to not embarrass you, but your high school friends know about all the horrible nicknames your parents call you.

12. Your sibling(s) birthday(s).

Your high school friends have actually shown up to your sibling's birthday partly like they're part of the family, and vice versa. You really celebrate every holiday with each other.

13. The best places to eat in your home town.

Your college friends share the love for the food in your college town, but when you visit your home town, your college friends know what you've been missing and going out to eat is the perfect way to catch up.

Although you don't get to see them as often as you'd like to, your high school friends have been there through the glasses, and braces, bad makeup, and breakups, and you couldn't love them more for everything they've gone through with you.

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.
