Goodbye to My College Best Friends

I want to take a moment to say goodbye in a way that I never could out loud.

This is a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. What's amazing is that I didn't really know any of you before this year and now you all mean the world to me. I want to take a moment to say goodbye in a way that I never could out loud. I want to be open and honest with you. I know you'll pick on me later for being so sentimental, but I also know that, on the inside, you'll feel the same.

I want to start with the one who I met first. You were supposed to be my roommate and I'm sorry it didn't work out. In the beginning, we clung to each other because you were the one person I knew in a crowd of people I didn't. It's definitely not like that now. I know we've had our ups and downs, but I'm so happy with where we are now. You're one of my best friends and I would do anything for you. Sometimes I look at you and think we're so different, but then I realize we're not actually that different at all. You're smart, caring, and just a fun-sized ball of sass, and I think I'm pretty much the same. I'm really happy to have met you and I can't wait to spend the next three years together.

Next, I want to talk about the one who I met second. Darling, you're my loud and proud friend, and I love you so much. I'm so happy we ended up living right across the hall from each other. I've never had guy friend that I was so close to and I'm glad you get the honor. We pick on each other so much and I love it. I've never felt anything but happy when I'm around you.You're one of the most loyal people I know and I want you to know that I would do anything for you. Thank you for being the person I can talk to, cry to, and vent to. Thank you for being the person I can go shopping with, sing with, and just hang out with. Thank you for being you and don't ever think you're not good enough. You're perfect.

The last person I want to say goodbye to is the last person I met. My love, it hurts so much to write this. I know we're going to see each other a lot this summer, but I still miss you. Thank you for being my everything, my rock, and my guiding light. I'm going to miss everything we do together, even if it is just hours of studying by your side or waking up next to you at 6:30 AM to go to class. You make everything enjoyable. You make grocery shopping enjoyable. I want to apologize in advance because I know I'm going to cry so much next week when we leave. When I think about all of the people in the world who don't get to see the person they love for days, weeks, or even months, I feel selfish. I've seen you almost every day since I met you. You've because a part of my life and an amazing part of everyday. I'm so happy I met you. I love you.

I know I'll see you all over the summer, but it won't be the same as when we're at school. It's going to be so weird not living right next to my best friends. I'm going to miss making dinner plans every night, hanging out in one of our rooms until midnight, and just being able to knock on one of your doors when I'm bored. I know next year's going to be even better though, and I can't wait to spend it with you guys.

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.
