The Girl Who Chooses Her Boyfriend Over Her Friends

Happiness...

"Why are you letting people control who makes you happy or not?"

I am the girl who naturally chooses her boyfriend over her friends probably more than half the time. Such a freaking crime isn't it ladies? I mean you don't even care about them anymore. How dare you!

If you ever read a book about love in your youth you'd probably read that you're supposed to fall in love with your best friend. You probably also read that they are supposed to make you laugh, make you feel like you're not faking, and literally make you want to be around them every second you get.

Honestly, if you've never heard that you've been living under a rock for your entire life or you're just too immature to understand that this day and age we're falling in love.

Don't get me wrong, if you haven't found someone you can't see your life without I get it! But, don't shame your friend for wanting to watch a movie with that special person rather than throwing up in the toilet because they took ten too many shots. Don't shame them for choosing a family party over sitting around a table and talking about college and how different you are now than six months ago.

I can almost promise you they care about you still, probably more than you care about them. But, why would someone with a boyfriend want to hang out at a bar and talk men into buying them a drink? Have you ever heard of hypocrites, I can tell you that she'd wouldn't want her boyfriend buying drunk girls drinks.

Stop shaming girls and calling them "weak" because they are in love. Stop wishing they'd just "break up" so you can have your fun partying best friend back. Stop telling them how much they changed because odds are they haven't changed and when the choose to go out they're just as much fun as they were 5 months ago, 1 year ago, 2 years ago.

When you are a need, and you need someone to talk to, they are not going to choose the boyfriend over you. Chances are (if she chose the right one) he'd want her there anyway. When you need someone to sit and have a glass of wine with, I promise you she'll be there.

Stop shaming girls who are best friends with their boyfriend.

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.
