5 Reasons You Should Ask Your Crush To Be Your Valentine, As Told By Peanuts' Characters

Valentine's day is coming up soon and there's only one person you have in mind.

That one person you would do anything for because they're really that perfect in every single way.

Their eyes, their hair, their smile, the way they laugh… just the thought of them, you get butterflies in your stomach.

Bruno Mars's song "Just the Way You Are" continuously plays through your head, followed by "Marry You."

Except that one person doesn't even know your name or who you are.

So, ladies and gentlemen, it's about time. It's finally time your crush knows you exist.

With that in mind, here are 5 Peanuts character-inspired reasons you absolutely NEED to gather your courage to ask your crush out this Valentine's Day:

1. Goodbye to constant anxiety and overthinking!

When you have a crush you're constantly wondering if your crush is interested in you or likes you back.

You overthink and overanalyze literally everything.

It's truly torture to be thinking about something you don't know the answer to. It's an answer you will never know, until the day you die, unless you do something about it.

The answer is right there! All you have to do is ASK.

2. They might like you too.

This one is obvious but they might have a crush on you too.

They could be super shy or super introverted, who knows? They might be thinking the exact same thing you're thinking.

3. The worst that can happen is a “no.”

Because we're constantly worried about getting rejected, it occupies our mind so much to the point that it almost feels like it's a correct prediction of what is going to happen.

That intense fear of rejection inevitably overshadows everything else.

Psychologically, we are constantly reinforcing the idea of rejection and making it so much worse in our heads than it will actually be. It's like waiting in line for a rollercoaster. You hear people screaming their lungs out right in front of you so you overestimate how frightening the ride will be but once you get on and off the ride you're just like 'THAT WAS SO AMAZING. LET'S DO IT AGAIN."

Obviously rejection isn't fun or easy, and it's not the same thing as a rollercoaster but the point is that it won't be as bad as you think. This also applies to your daily life. Are you not going to apply to your dream job just because you think you won't get the job? Don't let fear lead your life.

4. And if they say “No,” you’re just one step closer to finding The One.

They don't like you back. It happens. But it's OK because that only means you're just getting closer and closer to finding the love of your life.

Plus, more chocolate for you, so yay!

5. It’s 2020. Make it your decade.

The new decade is here and you don't have to be afraid of absolutely anything.

This will be YOUR decade so JUST. DO. 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.

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.
