Boy Problems? Listen To These Songs

These songs will help you let it all out.

1. "Can We Go Back To Bed" by Bazzi

The denial phase, the first phase of grief. This song is perfect for it. The idea of wanting to ignore the bigger issue just to stay comfortable despite knowing it's an ending relationship. Dating and getting so close to someone is amazing, but when it starts to fizzle out it's a terrifying and heartbreaking experience. The song walks through all the ways he is comfortable in the relationship and if they just go back to sleep they can essentially prolong the inevitable.

2. "STUPID" by Ashnikko ft. Yung Baby Tate

The next phase is anger, and Ashnikko is the perfect artist for the job. Ashnikko as a musician is incredible and unique in general, but this song is genius. The lyrics depict a situation where she is so over this guy and how he thinks he's in control and she is the one that needs him. Psych.

3. "Stay" by Sugarland

The bargaining phase is when things start to sink in, but you'd still do anything to keep them. "Stay" by Sugarland is the perfect song for this phase. The begging of getting this person to stay and not leave is so real and personal. The song walks through a situation where she is the other woman and is praying that the guy will stay with her instead of going back to his actual relationship.

4. "Liability" by Lorde

The depression stage hits hard. Lorde is the queen of cutting deep and "Liability" proves that. The feeling of not being enough for anyone is horrible, but the feeling of being too much for a person hurts in a different way. The way she describes the hurt and agony of only being able to be handled by herself is beautiful.

5. "Just A Boy" by Olivia O'Brien

Finally, the acceptance phase. The one where you finally get the realization that the relationship is over and you're going to be ok. This song is reassurance that they don't complete you, you don't need them. The sass that's portrayed through the lyrics is so satisfying and empowering.

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.
