To My Friends For Life

Psychologists say if a friendship lasts 7 years then it will last for life. Whether that fact is true or not we far surpassed that point. I constantly tell you guys out of the worst years of my life I got the best things that have ever happened to me. We've proven our friendship can survive through thick and thin, come hell or high water, no matter what we have each other's backs.

Thank you for being the most loyal people I have besides my family. I know no matter what is going down, I have you in my corner and you don't how much that means.

Thank you for supporting my dreams and having the good sense to tell me when I'm doing something that could inhibit me from reaching those dreams.

Thank you for standing by me in times of love and loss. Lord knows we've had some doozies.

Thank you for being there to witness my moments from brilliance to stupidity and everything in between, because I have enjoyed watching yours just as much.

Thank you for taking on my family and becoming a part of it. I love that you just walk in the house and call my parents mama and pops like they are your own.

Thank you for the times where we all get together from far and wide and it's like nothing has changed. We catch up on the new and reminisce about the old.

Thank you for being the sisters I never had.

I know since we were kids we would talk about living together, being in each other's weddings, and being aunt to any and all children that come along. Now that we are getting closer to those things being reality, I can't wait.

I look forward to meeting the person you are going to marry and welcoming him into our family, but also telling him he gets one shot at this and if he messes up, his ass is grass.

I look forward to standing by you at the altar, in the woods, on the beach, as you become someone's wife.

I look forward to watching you grow in or change your career path and blaze the trails here or abroad.

I look forward to the times I get to welcome your kids into this crazy world, and love them as fiercely as I do you.

I look forward to the times where I will tell your kids about all the wild and wacky moments we had when we were their age.

I look forward to the day where we get to watch our kids play and grow up together.

I look forward to those times where your husband is going to come to me in those moments that he just doesn't know what to do with you and I'll counsel him through it then send him back to you. Just as you would do for me.

I look forward to us traveling and taking road trips together while we leave the boys and kids at home.

I look forward to so many things that are coming up in our lives, new adventures and roles to take on, but I love that I get to do all of these things with you guys.

They say to pick your friends wisely because they'll be the ones by your side after your significant other kicks the bucket. I never had to worry about that, because I found my tribe a long time ago. Though we may not live in the same places, or see each other on a regular basis I know nothing will ever change. I love you guys.

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.
