The unrequited love, not so poem.

Only once in this lifetime you fall in this type of love that you never really fall out of. while yeah you're pretty lucky. Sometimes lucky and blessed aren't the words needed to describe this.

I have been in this for two years, and I can promise you I have tried to move on. I know there are people out there who have waited most of their life. Not everyone is in Unrequited love. Now there's a difference in Like and Love, so don't confuse the two terms.

Now to answer your question, its terrible. Love is supposed to be all sunshine's and rainbows, its never supposed to be asking God why on a daily basis.

Maybe this will turn to an open letter, to the boy who did just that. If it does lets just go ahead and say i'm sorry, but I am not sorry. I am tired of having to hide it.

Unrequited love, there's always that sense of hope. Always that sense of Faith. Being asked out by other guys, and telling them "No, I got a boyfriend." Knowing damn well that you don't actually have one, you just know damn well it doesn't "feel right." I know there are some ladies out there who feel me.

You want to be in a relationship, but you only want it to be with that person. You know the one you love but they don't love you back.

Believe me when I say I understand, I have caught hell, being told "oh you're too young to know what love is" I am so tired of hearing that, No actually I am not. age doesn't matter whether you're 13, 27, or 99 you will fall in a love that you never get over.

People think love is all sunshine, and rainbows, and butterflies and damn unicorns.

Sorry but you're wrong. Love is when someone knocks the wind out of you with just one look, love is about you making a commitment whether they know it or not. It is saying I won't give up on him for the rest of my life. It's about giving, and always going the extra mile.

Unrequited love isn't "beautiful." It is tragic. It is heart and gut wrenching. You see them happy with another person, and you are happy for them, but then all the emotions hit, and you realize just how badly you wish that you were that person.

Let me be the first to tell you, I am there. It's been two years to be frank. It's nothing but hell, but there's been some good times. Now I can't say if it's fully unrequited, because he's pretty unpredictable, I still believe it will maybe one day happen, but hard to say, but boy I believe I am on the right track for something. I have followed Gods path, I have stayed in contact with God through it all.

I will be the first to tell you that there's never going to be another. Ever. This one I won't get over. But that's an open letter for another time.

How do I cope? I travel, I write, I go to nature, and I hammock for hours. I have learned to take that energy and time and fall in love with nature and God. I have found a way to feed me inner voice always saying "I need to get away."

Next time someone says Unrequited love is beautiful, I want to be the first to put them in their place, because have they ever been in it? Clearly not.

Ladies, next time someone tells you that "you're young, and you don't know what love is." Please put them in their place. No one is too young, and no one is too old. Just know it can happen to anyone.

If we're being frank I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemies.

If the guy who caused it to me is reading this, I want you to know I consider myself lucky and blessed, even through all the hell, because you've gave my heart a fair share of it. Again that's an open letter for another time.

So please stop saying it is "beautiful" because newsflash, it isn't. while you're at it stop telling me "I am to young, and don't know what love is"

Ladies, learn to love yourself first. I am not the best example to tell you, but I am trying it out myself, and it's helping me with this.

Just know you're not alone if you've ever said:

Why me?

It just

isn't,

fair.

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.
