11 Thing You Shouldn't Have To Apologize For

Very so often we worry too much about what about what people think or how they feel about us. We need to learn to recognize that we are who we are and everybody else just has to respect that. Here are few things you should never have to apologize for:


1. For Saying "NO"

And not having to explain yourself!


2. For Being Who You Are

Diversity is a beautiful thing. Once you learn to love what makes you different, and totally owning it, you have nothing to apologize for!


3. For Having An Opinion

Whether the majority of people agree with you or not, kudos to you for standing your grounds!


4. For Having High Standards

And don't let anyone make you believe that your standards are too high; if they want to get on your level, they'll have to climb!


5. For Your Body

Because in all it's flaws and all it's glory, it's yours and you love it!


6. For Standing Up For Yourself


7. For Killing it At School and/or Work

You never have to apologize for your success and never let anyone hold you back!

8. For Expressing Your Emotions

Because we're all human and we all have those moments.

9. For Cutting-off Negative People

If something isn't good for you, let it go! You owe no apologies for brightening up your life and moving forward!


10. For Asking For Help

Because if you're too full of pride to ask for help when you need it, your growth is stalled and so you should never have to apologize for not knowing everything!


11. For Your Confidence!

Because only you know how hard it has taken you to get this far in standing tall and believing in yourself. If someone decides to take your self-pride and confidence as aggression, let it be their problem!

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.
