An Open Letter To My First Love

Thank you for being one of the most important chapters in my life.

An Open Letter To My First Love
telegraph.co.uk

Dear First Love,

There is not a day that goes by that I do not think about you or think about the times that we used to share and the memories that we made. I fell in love with not only you, but on top of that I also fell in love with the idea of us being together for the rest of our lives and the story that we could one day tell our children. The story that our children would one day tell our grandchildren and the legacy of pure true and unconditional love that we would leave behind for years to come.

We were going to be proof and inspiration that true love and happiness could still exist in the world. You know more about me than many people do; the good, the bad, and the ugly and you still managed to love me through my flaws. Throughout the twist and turns that we came across we still managed to somehow find our way back to each other.

You changed me for the better by pushing me in times when I couldn’t push myself. You changed my view of the world as well as my view of life itself. You challenged me as well as made me hate you at the same time. I worked ten times harder because you knew that I could make it. You made me laugh, you made me cry, and you sometimes made me want to leave you alone all together. You are the center of my memories because you were my first date, my first kiss, and my first life changing love.

It been a year and a half since we finally split and decided to move on but I still find myself hoping and praying that you are doing well. I pray that you accomplish every goal that you set for yourself, I pray for peace and stability in your life, and I pray that you happen to stumble upon a woman that will not only take care of you but also give you that unconditional love that you search for. That chapter in my life may have ended but the story itself will never change. No matter what you may face in life whether it is positive or negative I will always be there if you need help along the way.

I want to thank you for revealing a part of myself, for teaching me that I will be able to take the lessons that were learned from our chapter and apply them to other chapters in my life to come. Thank you for being there in times when I felt that I did not have anyone that I could lean on but you were always right there with your shoulder waiting. Thank you for instilling drive and ambition in me that I still use whenever I feel myself giving up. Overall, thank you for loving me in a time when I felt that no one else did.

Sincerely,

Your Ex-Girlfriend

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.
