Falling in Love is Scary

Falling in love with someone is one of the most beautiful things in the world, but what fairy-tales don't reveal is that it is S C A R Y!

It's actually one of the scariest emotions I have ever felt and all it takes is one person to make you feel it.

Just ONE person. The right person. YOUR person.

I believe that we all have a soulmate in this world and fate will lead you to them no matter what. Once you reach each other, nothing can stop you. Every couple has their rough patches but when you find your other half, nothing can come between you. It's you and them against the world.

Nothing is scary than falling in love. You learn to depend on this person more than you can depend on yourself. Your happiness relies on them and vice-versa. You can't imagine your life without them in it and they become your favorite part of every day. Your best self has it's arms around them. You're happiest when you're with them and the feelings the give you are indescribable. They're overwhelming.

When you feel yourself beginning to fall for a person, it's the scariest thing in the world. You want to make sure that they know you love them with every fiber of your being. At the same time, you don't want to become so obsessed that you scare them away. You don't want to express how your feeling if it's not 100% mutual.

Honestly, falling in love is beautiful and worth every second. But it is scary. Why?

You finally have something to lose.

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.
