You're not better than me.

Girl Of Many Faces,

I do not know why you don’t want to be my friend. I always thought I was pretty great, but you don’t seem to think that. You’re not the first of your kind, and I’m sure you won’t be the last, but girls like you have got to have something else going on. Your decision to dislike me makes no sense. We like a lot of the same things. We have similar personalities, but you don’t want to be my friend. We were friends before, but you don’t want to be my friend now. Don’t get me wrong, I am not here begging for you to be my friend. I have enough self-esteem to know that I should not have to beg someone to be my friend, and I would never want to be friends with someone that I had to beg to be friends with me, but girls like you have a way of getting under my skin. Girls like you are a whole other species.

Girls like you are mean. Girls like you choose to be friends with people weaker than them, so they can take what they want. Girls like you have to be the prettiest friend so they don’t ever have to feel insecure. Girls like you look down on other girls who don’t have what you have or can’t do what you can do. Girls like you make other girls feel like they are worthless, because you don’t give them the time of day. Girls like you only talk to people they believe can benefit them in some way. Girls like you are probably lonely inside.

So, no, it doesn’t bother me that you don’t want to be my friend, but it does. It doesn’t bother me that I won’t have to spend hours slaving over a birthday present for you that you will probably pretend to like, then throw in the back of your closet. It doesn’t bother me that I won’t have to listen to you try to boss me around because that’s just how you treat your friends. It doesn’t bother me that I don’t have to feel bad about myself because you need to feel good about yourself. It really does not bother me that you don’t want to be my friend.

It does bother me that you treat others this way. It does bother me that you have gotten away with verbally harassing your “friends” for years and nobody has told you a thing. It does bother me that you act like you’re better than me for any given reason that does not make you better than me. It does bother me that you wouldn’t want to be friends with me for something that has nothing to do with my personality. It does bother me that you don’t want to be my friend.

Your actions and reasoning bother me, but at the end of the day, what bothers me the most is your character.

I hope you realize how wrong you are. I hope you start treating your friends better. And I hope that you wake up.

Have a good life,

The Girl You Wouldn't Be Friends With

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
