Are We Still Best Friends Forever?

I think so. I hope so.

Are We Still Best Friends Forever?

Dear best friend,

What happened to us? We used to talk everyday, about all the important and stupid stuff. You knew everything about my life and I knew everything about yours. Now I feel like I don't even know you. Every time I see a post from you or hear something about you, all it does is make me sad. It makes me sad because I think of the people we used to be. College has changed us. Even though we're 188 miles away from each other I still thought we would talk. I thought I'd get all the stories about the amazing things you're doing. I thought you'd be curious about what's going on in my life. Yet, somehow here I am 188 miles away from you feeling like you don't care anymore.

I miss the times where we were never separate. We were the true definition of two peas in a pod. Your mom felt like a second mom to me and my family took you with open arms. I miss the days of wasting hours at the mall aimlessly walking around. The trips to JoAnn's to make blankets, even though we had a million (you can never be too warm). I miss the sleepovers that ended with you falling asleep early. Blasting Hunter Hayes and singing at the top our lungs not caring who heard us because we were having fun. I miss a lot of things that we used to do.

It hit me the other day that I shouldn't care as much as I do. But that's just the person I am. I don't send you a million text messages anymore because I don't want to be a bother. The last time we talked like best friends was Christmas break. I guess I'm just lost because I don't know what to do anymore. I don't know if you still want me in your life or if you just want to move on.

That one word has changed us so much. College has made us into different people. I guess it's just time for me to wake up and realize our friendship will never be like it was in high school. We've become too independent people, and as much as it sucks that we aren't as close as we were, I think a lot of people go through this. I hope that we can work on our friendship and try to make up for lost time, but I'm beginning to loose hope of being your best friend again.

If you want to work on our friendship just let me know. Even if it takes a long time. I'll still be here when you come back. You'll always be my best friend in my heart. Thanks for all those years, laughs, and countless memories.

Love,

Your best friend <3

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.
