Everyone needs a blunt friend in their friend circle. They kill the room with their witty punch lines but they also know how to cut to the chase when work needs done. They always tell you how it is when you don't necessarily want to hear it. But for the following reasons (and many more) you will forever be grateful for having a blunt friend like them in your friend circle.

1. They Tell It How It Is

Your blunt friend will tell you when you look awful or when you're acting like a moron. Even when it could be upsetting, you can always count on your blunt friend to tell it like it is.

2. They Are Insanely Funny

Blunt people are actually quite hilarious with their solid jokes they come up with. They are smart and witty people after-all, so you know you can always depend on them for a good laugh.

3. They Can Help You Get Your Life Together

When it feels like your life is collapsing down all around you, the last thing you really need is a friend who is going to assure you that you are doing just fine and sugar coating things that should not be sugar coated. You need a blunt friend like them who will tell you what you are doing wrong and how you can fix it.

4. They Dish It Out But They Can Take It

With your blunt friend, you don't have to tip toe around because they literally never get offended. They are great at dishing out insults and sarcasm but they are just as good at taking it right back. They actually will appreciate a well thought out wit and don't mind being the person at the receiving end of the joke.

5. They Never Lie To You

You don't have to worry about your blunt friend trying to deceive you or turning into an enemy. They have no interest in going behind your back, lying to you, or making up lies about you. They are honest with you all the way.

6. They Know How To Reign It Back In

Sometimes blunt friends will end up rubbing people the wrong way because of their sharp and witty honesty. They are smart enough to bring it back down when it is important, so they are totally capable of being nice. And they can get along with just about anyone.

7. They Are Brave To Say The Least

Blunt people do not care who likes them and who doesn't. They are not afraid of what anyone else thinks about them. They will say what they believe and they will not care who disagrees.

So all you really need in your life is someone who is brutally honest, willing to put up with some crap, and who has a good sense of humor and you will have the perfect blunt friend. It is also a bonus if you have a co-worker who is blunt because your shifts will go much faster. So do not be afraid to try to be friends with someone who is blunt, because trust me, you will not regret it.

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.

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.
