Friends might not be around 24/7 but they still care

Friendship means different things to different people.

Friendship means different things to different people. As you grow up and get older your friends will grow up and get older as well. That doesn't mean that they are not your friends what that means is that you will not text 24/7 anymore but rather once a week or once a month. The times you can connect will be even better because you will be able to talk about so much in the short amount of time you talk together.

You will not always see each other every day or even every other day but maybe once a week or once every few weeks. As your life gets busy so does theirs. As you start to deal with different issues so do they. So the time that you guys do have together means so much more because you guys will have each other's full attention!

You might feel depressed that the people you thought were your friends never text you back or don't want to hang out with you. That is not true because they are busy and dealing with their own things. They do want to be your friends, they will text you back, and yes they do want to hang out with you. You guys both have busy schedules so you are not able to talk and hang out all the time anymore. The times you are able to mean so much more and you guys fall back into old routines.

It can be hard and can feel like no one likes you-THAT IS NOT TRUE!! If you feel your friends don't like you then talk to them because it is most likely your anxiety getting the best of you. Yes, this happens-it recently happened to me and when we finally were able to hang out together I felt so much better and realized that they do love me and are my friends.

People are busy and have things to deal with which means that they might not always text you back and might not always be able to chill but when they do it means they do want to talk with you.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
