Thank you for being extraordinary

An Open Letter To My Long Distance Best Friend
Tidbits and Fiddlywinks

To my person,

First off let me say that you inspire me to be the best I can be. I will always wonder what I did to deserve someone as amazing as you. The busy lives we lead make it so we aren't the best at communicating, but when we do talk it's like we never left off. I want you to know how much I appreciate you in my life because I don't always get to tell you.

I've never had a friend who gets me like you do. I just love the fact that we never run out of things to say. I can tell you literally anything in the world and you just get me. You always seem to know things about my life before they even happen. Especially when it comes to boy stories (or literally anything else), it blows my mind to this day how brilliant your psychic ways are.

I hate not getting to see you whenever I want, oh I hate it so dearly. I wish we went to the same school so we could live together and make all these memories together. It takes a special kind of friendship to last a distance of thousands of miles. Let me tell you, not everyone is cut out for it. But it's super cool to see how we don't have to be in the same city or even state to stay besties, and when we do see each other our time together is so much more special. We're in different states tackling this whole adulthood thing and following our dreams together and I love getting to hear all about it. I hate the distance but I'm so darn proud of who we're becoming, our friendship stands the test of distance indeed.

I love that we have different opinions and that we can discuss them and respect each other. I love that we can share our ideas and plans for the future with each other all the time. I love that you love burgers and hate salads (whereas I love salad and hate burgers), and how we'll always share a love for coffee and ice cream. I love that we are navigating this thing called adulthood together and we'll always have each other's backs.

Thank you for being there for me, for listening to all my nonsense, and giving me your honest advice even when you know I won't like it. Thanks for keeping it real. You tell it like it is and that's one of the reasons I love you so much. Thank you for spontaneous FaceTime dates and dance parties, and for listening to my random conspiracies that come from out of nowhere. Thanks for sticking by my side no matter what, because I know my life can be a little dramatic sometimes. I have no idea how I would make it through life without you.I want you to know that I think you are amazing.

I really scored in the best friend department. Distance has got nothing on us.

Love,

Your person

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.

Power of Love Letters

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.
