7 Reasons To Go To Paris With Your Best Friend Over A Boy
@clightphotos

Paris, one of the most romantic cities in the world has always been at the top of my bucket list. For spring break this year I decided to go to Paris with one of my best friends. Let's be real guys romantic vacations with your significant other come with certain pressures and expectations. Going on trips with your best friends only entails that you will have a wild time even if you get lost in the streets of Paris. In my opinion, the best way to explore a city is to run around with your best friend, possibly making a fool of yourself but still looking good while doing it.

1. Her Suitcase Is Your Suitcase Too

When you to go to a place like Paris you have to leave half your suitcase empty for shopping. So if you forgot a shirt for going out she probably has one. You can't steal your boyfriend's shirt to go out in but you can steal your best friends.

2. They Will Actually Tell You What You Look Good In

There's no need to be nice when it's with your best friend. If something doesn't look good it just doesn't look good. She will always give you her honest opinion. So you don't end up buying leather pants 3 pants sizes too small...

3. They Know Your Angles

No more asking your boyfriend or strangers to take pictures for you and receiving blurry of hideous photos. Your best friend should know your angles and you know theirs. So don't be shy.. strike a pose.

4. Just Because Your Not With a Boy Doesn't Mean You Cant Have a Romantic Vaca

No, it's not weird if you go on a wine tour and your the only pair that isn't a couple there. Drink your wine and eat your cheese in front of the Eiffel Tower. Go to a romantic candlelit dinner with wine and laugh at all the awkward couples around you. If people don't mistake you for a couple you are simply doing the trip wrong.

5. She Actually Wants To Shop With You

Im sure we have all walked into a clothing store and seen the corner for boyfriends, husbands or children. Yes, this is the corner where the uninterested members of the party go to sit as the others shop. As I'm sure to use heard Paris is the fashion capital of the world and shopping should be a priority... right up there with eating. Your best friend will spend hours shopping with you no complaints.

6. You'll Always Have Someone To Get Drunk at Every Meal With

As they say its never too early to start and it's five o'clock somewhere. Your best friend would never judge you for starting the day off right with mimosas and ending it with wine and maybe a couple shots to tequila.. but who's counting. What's a vacation without a bender through the streets of Paris?

7. You Can Eat Your Way Through Paris Without Caring About The Food Baby That Comes After

Whats a vacation to Europe without some bread, croissants and delicious pastries? If you don't go up a pant size by the end of the week did you even go on vacation? Go to Paris with your best friend who will encourage you to eat that last piece of bread even though you have never been fuller in your life. When in Paris.. am I right?

8. You Don't Have to Share Your Food

There's that moment during a meal when you are really enjoying your food it's so good that you start to think about how it will soon be over because your plate is starting to clear. At that moment you see your boyfriend's fork lean onto your plate and take some of your food.

You can't yell at him because you know he would let you have some of his but you just not want it. Go to Paris with your best friend and you can order as much food as you want with no expectation of sharing.. on either end.

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.
