There are no words to express how you keep me sane. And how worthy you make me feel. I still cannot grasp how you have the ability to love someone so much. Or how you can laugh at your own jokes. When sometimes they are not even funny (just kidding).

Your flaws are everything to me. Even when you doubt yourself just know that you always have me. Your ability to love me for who I am is insane. I never even knew it was possible for someone to compliment me so much. It is crazy!

You have loved me from the beginning. All the difficult and hard times. Not only that but joyful times too. Through everything.

I was and still am ready to face anything in life with you.

You have loved me harder when I have been at my absolute worst. You have never once doubted me but lifted me up and motivated me to push myself even further. You keep loving me even when there is every opportunity to call it quits. You hold me when I push you away. And keep holding me when I cry.

Not only have you pushed me, you motivate me to make friends when I feel alone. Even at my lowest, you get me to love myself and make me feel beautiful.

And for anyone reading this, people often say there are hard times in relationships — and they are right. I will not believe it for a minute if someone says things are perfect. Everybody goes through things. Times get rocky and upsetting. But I am here to tell you that relationships are about communication with and commitment to one another.

It is the time and effort you both put into it. Even through the rocky and unbearable times, it comes to show how much stronger you guys can become and how strong your relationship is.

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.
