There Is Always Someone There For You At Your Worst Times

Breakups is never something people enjoy going through. We all believe that we will be with that person for the rest of our lives, and when that turns out not to be true, it is devastating. The best way to deal with any breakup is by having the right people around you.

I have a best friend from home who moved to another state and she was always there to reassure me that things will get better, even though she is 2 hours away. We were both going through very similar situations, so we could easily relate to each other. I helped her forget about her breakup, while she helped me get through my messy breakup. My ex turned into a "stalker" and was crazy obsessive, so my friend helped me calm down when I got anxious.

I have another friend from home, who happened to be best friends with my ex at the time. He was going through a breakup as well which I was always there to get him through the mess that he had to deal with. We both started getting anxiety for different reasons. He didn't know how to get over his ex, whom he dated for 4 years, so he got so anxious at random times of the day.

When he was friends with my ex, he would always tell me when my ex planned to come to visit me. Knowing he was trying to do this, I started having an anxiety attack each time. I would start shaking and I would get dizzy. My friend was the only person who was able to make me forget about my ex by talking to me about random things until I calmed down.

I still remember the first time it happened when I was in public. I was at my school's broadcast Thursday night, and I found out my ex was going to try to visit me that weekend when I went home. I couldn't stop shaking and I felt so dizzy to the point I just got up and walked outside to call my friend. After talking to him for about 10 minutes, I was feeling a lot better and could finally focus more.

Don't ever think you are alone when you are going through a breakup. There are always people there for you that love you, whether it is family or friends or both. Do not let breaking up with someone control how you live your life. We all need to realize that things happen in life. Yes, it will be difficult, but that does not mean you won't come out back on top.

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.
