9 Things I Have Learned Living With My Signifcant Other
Instagram

My boyfriend and I have been dating for about 5 years. In our sophomore year of college, we decided to move into an apartment off campus because it was cheaper and we could live together!

1. Communication is KEY 

Giphy

When you want your space or want to be cuddled you have to tell them unless they will not know.

2. You do not have to do everything together 

Giphy

It is good to set aside time to spend with just you and your friends without your significant other.

3. They are GREAT study buddies 

Giphy

Need to cram for an exam?

4. Sometimes the little things don't matter 

Giphy

Not every thing needs to start an argument

5. If you don't want to share your food, hide it

Giphy

Or else he will eat all the Nutella again.

6. I drink a lot of milk

Giphy

Or maybe it is him who drinks it all and he says I do?

7. How to steal the blankets back

Giphy

All you have to do is pull really hard and wrap yourself into a burrito

8. Mexican food is ALWAYS an option

Giphy

It is cheap and who can say no to good food?

9. I will love him no matter what 

Giphy

Even if he eats all the Nutella and steals the blankets at night.

I would say it is the best thing I have ever done.

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.
