There Are Two Sides Of Every Broken Friendship, But One Path Forward To Fix It
Zoey Leonard

Starting at being the girl next door, to unintentional matching puck sluts for Halloween, to half year roommates, you quickly became my best friend. Sh*t hit the fan quick. We both went our separate ways with some bitter feelings.

A best friend and lifelong friend are hard to come by. When you find that person, hold on to them near and dear because I lost mine... or at least I thought.

A few months ago, even weeks ago, if you asked me "do you think you guys will be friends again" my answer, quite honestly probably would have been a solid no. Yet, we moved into dorm rooms... which ended up being next to each other (even after we requested not to be roommates anymore? Thanks, Res Life!) I guess they knew something that we didn't know.

It was a bit awkward at first, especially seeing your parents, but none-the-less I said hello and smiled. Thank god I did, because I missed you.

Best friends/lifelong friends go through a lot. I believe think that these last few months were a test of our type of friendship... I couldn't be more excited to know that we are life-long friends.

Thank you for loving me.. while hating me... especially throughout my long rough patch. Thank you for always being transparent with me and being straight up. I know I could not see it at the time but you really always have my back and I could not be more grateful.

Its comforting to know we are starting where we started last year... next door neighbors. I could not be more thankful towards Res Life for messing up our request!

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.
