An Open Letter To My Guy Best Friend

First of all, I want you to know that you annoy me 99.99% of the time. I have never met someone who annoys me as much as you do, but at the same time, I've never been more thankful for a person like you. Thank you for being annoying because I wouldn't want you to be anything else. Thank you for the snapchats everyday that remind me how weird we are and how horrible we can be. It's the little things that remind me how lucky I am to have you in my life. I understand it can be hard to be friends with me. As much as I hate it, I'm going to have days where I'm randomly emotional or I'll vent to you for hours about something stupid.

Thank you for the constant reminders that I can do whatever I set my mind to, whether that’s acing an exam or telling someone how I feel. Thank you for being there when I have to rant about boys because you know I have plenty, but, at the same time, thank you for giving me perspective that I can’t see or understand at first. Thank you for telling me when I'm wrong, which according to you is a lot. Thank you for saving me from drama and helping me clear my mind. I love all my friends but sometimes I can't handle the drama and I break down.

Thank you for giving it to me straight. When I do ask for your opinion (even though you'll give it whether I ask or not), you don't say what I want to hear rather what I need to hear. Thank you for the random messages on Facebook and Instagram when you found something funny. I know you send them to me because you know I need a good laugh because I'm "being too serious."

I don't actually know how we became so close. Maybe it's because I find your horrible sense of humor funny, or maybe it's because we are so similar but so different at the same time. You made going to class at 8 am more fun than it actually was. I can never truly stay mad at you because you know how to put a smile on my face. You're the first person I want to talk to when something cool happens. When I'm feeling down, you wouldn't run away from me but instead made me talk it out with you. I don't know where I would be without you! So thank you buddy and know that no one can ever take your place.

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.
