An Open Letter To My Future Wife

Wherever you may be, whoever you are I hope you get to see this.

Hey there,

Let's start with this, I'm not easy to love or to deal with. I'm stubborn, I'm competitive, I'm picky, I have some forgiving to do, I'm a blanket stealer. What I'm not though is someone who is going to hurt you.

Let's just face the facts that life has not been easy, and will it ever be easy? Probably not, and that's the beauty of this is that even though I have those qualities that may work against me at times I have one quality that will conquer all of them, and that is the love I have for you.

I know some things about you already; even though I may not have met you yet, I know that you will be one of the strongest women I will ever meet, one of the most loyal, one of the most impeccable, also one of the most spiritual and beautiful women I will know. I know that you've been hurt before, I know that you're probably an athlete in some sport, I know that you're waiting just as patiently as I am for us to meet. But maybe we already have met, maybe we already have crossed paths but God said no. God said that we weren't ready for each other yet, so keep being patient especially when we are married because, to be honest, I will most likely test your patience a lot (so thank you in advance). I want to make a promise to you that no matter how tough life gets, that I will be your person.

Being your person means that I promise to support you in every decision you make, even if I may not agree with it. Being your person means that I promise to be there for you on not only your good days but also on your bad days. Being your person means that I promise to be the best wife for you. Being your person also means that on the days when you don't love yourself, I promise to love you harder than ever before.

Being your person also means that football, baseball/softball, soccer, and hockey season are all going to be interesting because our house will most likely be divided. Because let's be real there is no way that my future wife is not a fan of all the teams I hate, including Texas, Ohio State, Michigan State, Florida, Clemson, Auburn, and the worst two teams to ever exist The Boston Red Sox and The Boston Bruins, I still promise to love you. Being your person also means that when our future children come up to the both of us, and say that they are Alabama and Oklahoma fans, I promise to sleep on the couch that night.

We will make it, I promise.

Love,

Your future wife Becca.

Oh, and one more thing Boomer Sooner.

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.
