Are Relationships The New Cosmo?

Giving seasonal a whole new meaning

Are Relationships The New Cosmo?
http://www.drodd.com/html7/cosmopolitan-drink.html

Seasons, like cosmopolitans, are cyclical—one minute we are quite in love with the drink and the next minute it's out like the wind on a spring morning. Sex and The City remind us that cosmos are tried and true, they are like the books that never go out of style, the dresses you never forget to wear, and the friends you always keep no matter the season. Have relationships become the new cosmo?

Millennials seem to throw out relationships like the weather changes in Georgia. First, you’re in and then you’re out, you become tired and boring—nothing to satisfy the short attention span we have grown accustomed to. Relationships are like a rare sale you find at your favorite store. The moment you see the sale, you realize you must look. There’s no harm in looking and while you’re there you find the perfect sheath dress and not to mention peep toes to go with. Who can argue with a sale so great? That’s like finding the perfect guy. It’s the sale you never expect but it happens anyways and you can’t say no.

But what happens after the sale, when you go home and try on your new outfit? You then realize that perfection doesn’t really exist and something will happen to that dress—to the shoes. You can’t return them, which is where we need to take the next step and realize that the only way to find our slight need of perfection is to take care of what you have—that way you no longer have a spring only relationship, but one that lasts year round.

For those who are still looking for that rare sale, don’t worry—it’ll be here before you know it. In the meantime, grab the girls and a Cosmo—these two will never go out of style.

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.

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.
