We are not dating -- we're just friends.

A Letter To My Guy Best Friend
Logan Prochaska

Boy best friends, we all have them. Most of the time people confuse him for your boyfriend (gross, I know). However, sometimes that is a bit of a compliment because although we will never be together, it's nice to know that everyone else can see that he is constantly looking out for you. There are so many things we wish we could tell our guy best friends, but we don't want them to take anything we are saying the wrong way. So, this goes out to my guy friend.

Dear guy best friend,

First off, I just wanna say thank you. Thank you for always being there for me, thank you for always supporting my sometimes questionable decisions and thank you especially for bringing so much laughter into my life. Don't get me wrong, having girl best friends is amazing, but sometimes you really are the only person that gets me.

We have all these inside jokes that no one will ever understand. Most of these jokes started out as me trying to annoy you, or vice versa, but then eventually became something we say to each other on a daily basis. While all our other friends are tired of hearing the same joke every day, I still think it's hilarious, and I hope you do too.

Let's not forget the dozens of times when people ran up to us and said, "Oh my gosh! How long have y'all been dating?" My personal favorite is whenever I mention another guy's name someone will say they thought you were my boyfriend. While these conversations are very redundant, irritating and seem to never end, I'm glad you can just laugh about it instead of being weird and running away from our friendship.

So far, you've stuck by my side through it all. I know I may drive you crazy sometimes because let's be honest, I am a little crazy. I know that sometimes I make snippy comments about your choice in girls, but as long as you're happy then I'm happy. We have definitely gotten into our fair share of arguments, but the next day everything is okay again. I love this because it reassures me that you won't be going anywhere for a while.

I hope that I am half as good a friend to you as you have been to me, and if I wasn't, I know you wouldn't hesitant to inform me.

I cherish all of the times that we have spent together and I can't wait to see what the future holds for our friendship. Thank you again for never being intimidated by my constant mood swings and always intimidating boy's who may try to break my heart. You're like an older brother: annoying and overbearing, but someone I would never want to be without.

Love,

Your girl best friend

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.
