7 Reasons Going To The Same School As Your S.O. Is Far Better Than A Long-Distance Relationship
Sam Margolis

A few days into my freshman year of college, I started dating my girlfriend, who I have now been with for almost 14 months.

Going to the same school is honestly one of the best things that could have happened to us, especially because we definitely would not even know each other otherwise. It is not only convenient location and distance-wise, but it has also brought us closer together and is the core reason for all the memories we have made together, and will continue to make for the rest of our time here as students.

Here are just a few of the many reasons why going to the same school as your significant other makes for the ultimate college experience:

1. You can see each other whenever you want.

If you both live on campus, you'll always be just a few minutes away from each other, which obviously calls for 24/7 cuddles.

2. You can celebrate holidays together (even if they fall on weekdays).

Spooky season is especially fun with your college boo.

3. It's easier to plan hangouts and go out on dates.

Sam Margolis

Spontaneous dates are the best dates.

4. You can have quiet nights in together.

I'm always down for a movie night.

5. You can see each other between classes, and even walk to your next class together.

And maybe even grab some food on campus together in between.

6. They can come over to make you feel better when you're sick.

I'm a huge baby when I get sick, so I'm grateful that my girlfriend is nearby to take care of me and bring me snacks.

7. You can cook meals together.

Sam Margolis

I couldn't tell you how many times we cooked pasta together, but it's delicious every time.

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.

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.
