Can anyone tell me why we give guys our full-undivided attention, but yet they can’t do the same for us? Why do we start to think he is ignoring us if he doesn’t instantly reply to our text messages? If they won’t do the same for us, then why are we doing it for them?

I’ve never been in a relationship, but I don’t need to be to know that no man deserves your full attention. I know being female that our minds are always racing. They race when we send that risky text message or just a simple hello to that one person who you think cares as much for you as you do for him. I’m going to make this real simple and easy to understand. If the guy is not doing the same for you, then do not do it for him. If you’re the one always texting him first and if he only texts you at night, then stop giving him your full attention. Once you stop giving the guy your full attention, if he doesn’t care that you stopped, then he never cared about you in the first place.

It is a huge waste of time to give guys your full attention. Boys will make you cry and hurt you without having any remorse toward your feelings. However, a man who is actually interested in you will make the effort to see you, to talk to you, to make you happy, etc. He won’t make you wonder every 5 seconds where this is going. His intentions will be clear. If he’s right for you, then you’ll both have the same intentions, and above all, your feelings for each other will be equal. If you’re in a relationship and you have to step back and wonder where this is going, then maybe you shouldn’t be in that relationship because it’s probably going nowhere and life is too short to waste your time, energy and heart on something or someone that isn’t going anywhere.

There a million and one things in this world that should have your full, undivided attention. Don’t let some guy be that one because he surely won’t give you his. Your career, family, goals, education and many other things deserve your full attention. Don’t live a life where a boy controls your actions. Go travel the world, learn new things, make mistakes and discover the lesson from it, meet new people, learn a new language, etc. The possibilities are endless in this world; don’t limit yourself to so little when there is so much more in this world. Go out there and explore it, you’re not getting any younger. I promise you you’ll find your special someone along the way. Someone who will earn your attention.

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.

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.
