Congratulations honey, you played yourself. But let's back up a little bit, it was late 2016 when we met and you were the complete opposite of what I was looking for, I just was not going to be with a guy like you. You thought you were the best thing since sliced bread because you played sports and were practically a genius, sounds perfect on paper except for the fact you were an absolute pushy little shit.

You knew how to get what you wanted, always. I thought I was getting to know you by February of the next year, but I was wrong, you cried in front of me once and for me that was the ultimate breakthrough, or so I thought. Listen, I understand loss, you know I do so I'm not going to sit here and downplay that, but it doesn't give you the excuse to play with peoples emotions. I became wrapped around your finger by the time spring came around and you knew it. I couldn't believe a hot shot like you would pay any attention to a girl like me, nonetheless constant attention so I fell for it. You said jump and I did, anything you wanted from me you had it and I regret being that available to you all that time.

You played me like I was a pawn in your game and then when you left for summer break you left me hanging. You promised you'd come to see me for my birthday, that you wouldn't be so distant, but you were, too busy for a girl like me. Three months went by, the hardest summer of my life and you weren't there. I cried over you so much, sobbing in the arms of a boy who fell for me, but I was too stuck on you and blinded by your perfection. I was leaving for college that August and of course you knew that but you had to sink your teeth into my skin one more time, I thought it would be the last.

Once I left for school you again distanced yourself until it was time for you to come up north to play a school in the town over from me, conveniently the school I attended let your team practice on our field, I fawned over the idea of seeing you. I told a friend all about you, you guys even briefly met when you came to my dorm. You and I had one last go and then I had a revelation, enough is enough. I am not about to give my body to this cruel man anymore no matter how perfect he seems, I broke contact and I thought that was that but I was so wrong. I did see you after that and I regret every second of it because you don't and you never did deserve a second of my time. You played the girl who would have done anything for you and led her into the arms of someone fantastic, someone she plans to marry and have a family with someday so hey thanks I guess.

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.
