An Open Letter To A New, But Forever, Friend

Friendships like these are hard to come by, but luckily some of us have found them.

Dear Friend,

It isn't often that you come across a person who you click with almost immediately. Most friendships take a long time to grow and become something special. Ours, however, is slightly different. I don't think I will ever be able to put into words how grateful and lucky I feel that our paths have crossed. I would try, but I don't think there's a word in English that would suffice.

In our short time as friends, I have found so many new appreciations and perspectives on life and am so glad someone was able to open those doors for me. Although it hasn't been very long, you seem to always have a way to keep me positive, motivated, happy and focused on what matters. Finding someone who I can completely be myself around has been something very new and very important to me, and I'm so glad you could be that person. I know that whenever something good happens in either of our lives, the other one will be there to cheer us on; and whenever something not too great happens, we will always have a hand to hold or a shoulder to cry on. I love to see things go well for you and will always be your biggest cheerleader!


As I get to know you better, I become more and more excited to see what our future adventures have in store for us. From crazy shopping trips and relaxing movie nights, to aimless walks around town and baking extravaganzas, I always look forward to seeing you. Our daily text messages can make me laugh to the point of tears, and our mutual love (and hatred) for other people often keeps me going.

Thank you for your reminders for me to smile or breathe -- they can be a turning point in my whole day. I know I can always count on you with my biggest secrets or silliest moments without being judged one bit. Your advice makes life seem like an easy thing to conquer, which is something I've never experienced before. It's a wonderful feeling to have someone you trust by your side, and an even better feeling to know that you're never going to lose them.

A friend like you is hard to come by. Somehow I was able to meet someone who is as generous, loving, caring, silly, fun, and strong as you. I can't wait to see what our future holds -- I know it will be something amazing.

Thank you for taking your time to understand all of the ups and downs in my life, as well as your own. I will always appreciate everything you do for me, and will always be by your side exactly the same way you are for me. We're in this crazy thing called life together and I wouldn't want it any other way. I don't really remember what life was like before we met, but I don't think I ever want to find out.

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.
