The Friendship That Just Wasn't Meant to Be.

Friendship is a beautiful thing, isn't it? Being able to have that person who you go to, confide in, and love. I never felt so close to another human being ever in my life, and I am grateful for the many memories that we shared. When you find someone who understands you completely and loves you despite your flaws, that's something that you do not let go of. I never imagined life without you and even though you had imperfections, I never walked away from you. Not once. But, it appeared that the friendship was one-sided since you condemned me for mine. My honesty; my bluntness. I said the things that you didn't want to hear. The things you didn't want to accept. I guess you couldn't handle that. At the end of the day, I was only trying to help you do better. I did all of those things out of love.

I cared for you more than anyone else ever did, but you didn't see that. All of your rough relationships, I was the one that was there to talk to and comfort you. When you were crying over your depression or your struggles, I was there to love you. In your darkest times, I tried to be your light. To guide you, to make you feel safe. I wanted you to feel important.

Maybe I should have been more tender with you. Perhaps I should have just hidden my inner feelings. But, in my eyes, that's not being a true friend. Friendship is honest, friendship is raw, and I refuse to sugar coat things. There are times to be delicate, but I believe that there are times where you need to be blunt with the things you say. Maybe this makes me an awful person, who knows.

Someday, I will find a friend who appreciates my honesty, as well as my love. And maybe one day, you will look back and realize exactly what you lost. I am not begging you to come back, nor do I expect you to, but you need to see this through my eyes. That is all I really want. I guess when it comes down to it, it doesn't really matter.

So, you have gone your way and I have gone mine. Looking at you now, it's almost like looking at a stranger. It just goes to show that there's a fine line between love and hate. I knew the moment it all came crashing down, that there was no turning back. With the passing of time, I have become okay with that. At the end of the day, I do want to see you happy and successful and I want you to find a best friend that better suits you as a person. You will do great in life and I wish you the best of luck in your future. Even though I will not be a part of it.

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.
