To The Friend Who Became My Partner

You already knew me so you waited until the time was right.

To The Friend Who Became My Partner
wallpaperinhd.net

How long have we known each other? 1 year? 5 years? Since we were kids back in elementary school? No matter how long we've known each other, no matter how far apart we became, we still managed to create something amazing.

So we start to catch up. We message back and forth, talk about life and the past. We learn about the relationships that didn't work and the things we now want out of a relationship. The funny thing: I've watched you date those people. The ones who yelled at you, cheated on you,treated you like shit.

I've watched all this happen from the sidelines and I was so jealous. You were amazing, wonderful and perfect in my eyes. I always look at the best in people and that's what I could see. I knew you weren't without problems but, no one ever is. You deserved someone who could handle your moody days and could give you the space you needed. They couldn't do that but, I wanted to be the person that could. I never said anything because I didn't want you to get the wrong idea about me and my motives.

So, I kept silent until now. I started to notice that you talked to me everyday. You would tell me what happened during your day. You would tell me your troubles. You started calling me and leaving me cute messages for me to wake up to.

Then we went on our first date. I was nervous as hell but, you kept me calm. We went to dinner where you paid for our meal. Then we went to the movies, you paid for our tickets, and then we kissed in the theater. I took you home and...we became a couple.

Am I worried this could ruin our friendship? Hell yes, scared beyond all control. Do I think that we could have a solid relationship that lasts a lifetime? Of course, and that's how I want it to be.

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.
