An Open Letter To The Girls My Brothers Marry
Tiffany Grace Bianco

Hi there,

To you, I may just be the future evil sister-in-law, but I promise, it's nothing personal. When it comes to a sister's brothers, I'm bound to get over-protective and I may come off as mean, but really, I just love my brothers to the moon and back a billion times over.

Best friends, partners in crime, at times enemies, but most of the time they're truly my people.

Trust me, girlfriend, there is nothing in the world that will wedge the relationship that my brothers and I have. You could move him 100 million miles away and you will still not get rid of me. I will always be in your life. Why? Because you chose to marry an only sister's brothers. That's one pretty special and strong bond. You could be together for 24 years, but remember I will have known him for 18 more years than you. If there is any person who knows him more, it's me.

So, save the, "Oh, I love when ____ does this," or, "___ always does this," or, "Did you know ____ read all the 'Harry Potter' books in a week?"

Yes, I know. I was the one in the desk next to him when he wrote out every spell to 'Harry Potter' and saved it in a notebook! I know he wears the same shirt for three days! I've lived with them for 18 years. I know everything there is to know about these people. And trust me honey, as much as you may think you know, I've been their super secret keeper since age embryo.

Now as protective as I will always be of my brothers, I want you to know that I will always love and respect you. You truly got lucky. My brothers are the best people I've ever met in my life and any girl would be the luckiest girls in the world to have them be apart of their life. Even though they're immature, extremely messy and sometimes just straight dorks, they're going to make your lives truly incredible. I've shed more tears laughing with them than I have shed sad tears on their shoulders after a bad day. They've seen me heartbroken and have seen me not be treated how they want so trust me, I've got them whipped into total husband material. They are such amazing human beings and have the biggest hearts. I'm so thankful to have grown up with these beautiful souls and I'm so happy that you can experience them as well. They helped shape me into the strong person I am today and I can't imagine my life now and ever without them in it. I hope you appreciate them as much as I do because every day I love them more.

So, thank you for loving my brothers. They deserve a lifetime of endless happiness. I've always imagined them being with a girl who makes them happy every single day of their lives. I really hope you can live up to the high expectations I have for my brother's wives but I have no doubts you won't. I'm really not the evil sister-in-law I make myself out to be. Just an only sister who was spoiled by her brothers her whole life and loves them more than anything in the world.

Love them through the hard times and the good times, and I promise to be there for you guys through it all.

Love,

The Not So Evil Sister-In-Law

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.
