“Someone comes around and treats you right for the first time in a very long time, your first instinct is to run far far away. You start thinking they are going to use you because that’s what you’re used too. You aren’t used to someone being kind to you and you’re wondering when shit is going to fall apart and you’re going to have to pick up the pieces again. You’re terrified that one day they’re going to wake up, not want you anymore and find someone else to love.” -Unknown

Of course, you want to run. Who doesn’t? But first, ask yourself if you’ve found true happiness within yourself before you just run away from what could be the best thing in your life.

The only truth I can tell you about finding inner happiness is to start loving yourself more with each day that passes. Start viewing yourself differently. Love yourself for who you are and not what you are.

The way you view yourself through unhappiness is all from past negative experiences. The doubt and worry is really unnecessary. It’s only creating a burden inside of you.

At some point, you’ve been taught not to trust anyone and everyone which is very true, but you’ve also held back on loving yourself which in return takes your love away from the ones who deserve it most.

Dreams don’t come true, men never stay.. these things aren’t entirely true.

You have to chase the right dreams and find the right man to love to find that certain happiness, but that doesn’t happen without loving yourself first.

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.
