How You Know When Your Friends Are Family

There is a distinct difference between friends and best friends, but after a while best friends turn into more. Once you have been through hell and back, or just survived the torrent of high school drama together, you're more than best friends. Here are a few signs that your best friends are actually your siblings.

You walk into their houses instead of knocking

You know the code to their garage

They always defend you even when you're wrong

But they won't let you forget that you were wrong

You not only borrow their clothes, but also their mom's

Or their dad posts pictures of you on facebook with the caption "my daughters"

They drive insane distances for you, like visiting your college

Sharing the same bed is a given

Cuddling is also never unexpected

You have more bad pictures of them than good ones

You absolutely berate each other on social media, in person, and through text

They know how to make you laugh in seconds

And know when to let you cry and when to tell you to stop moping

Your conversations are filled with memes and facebook links

Their food is your food to nibble on

When you're over their house you don't feel weird asking for food

You probably just grab a snack from the cabinets without asking too

You. Share. EVERYTHING. Lipstick, clothes, shoes, phone chargers, jewelry.

Your favorite nights are ones filled with heaps of Chinese food and awful Netflix flicks.

Of course you also watch the same shows together

They'll let you know when you look awful, and know exactly what you should change into

A majority of the stories you tell have them in it

The "are you looking cute or dead?" text is answered with dead 90% of the time thankfully

They go completely out of their way to help and support you whenever they can

They're your #1 fan through it all

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
