To The Friend I Miss

The silent war killed our friendship, but I just think you should know.

To The Friend I Miss

Dear Old Friend,

I believed that we were at one time, the closest we could be. However, time has passed now and I don't see us as really "friends" anymore. It isn't just you nor is it just me, its a general silent agreement that we just are not the same. It kills me honestly. I don't know how you feel about it but I sometimes wonder if you even notice that we are not the same.

I am sorry if you believe we are fine, but it honestly seems that you would be fine if I never talked to you again.

I sometimes hear songs we used to sing obnoxiously in the dorm room, or in the car on the way to Sorority things and it just isn't the same. The song no longer makes me want to sing out loud with the windows down, or do another lap around campus just to finish the song before we get out and walk back to our room.

I am sorry if you feel I have hurt you.

I would never mean to intentionally hurt you. If I did hurt you I wish you would have told me. I could of fixed it. I could of made it up to you. I could of made sure we did not get this far in this silent war we have going on. I really honestly wish you would have just told me.

I'm sorry you feel the need to not hangout anymore.

We used to spend weekend nights doing dumb stuff around campus, watching movies, or dreading meets we had early on Saturday mornings. Now it seems like I never see you, and if I do its leaving our rooms in the morning or a quick pass in the hallway as I leave for class and you return. We don't even make the effort anymore. We have no reason too, our relationship is so far gone.

I guess I hope you read this, I hope you realize what I am feeling, and I hope you can forgive me for distancing myself so much, but I also hope you see what you have done in this situation too.

As this whole mess began, you began in a sense ditching me. You began replacing me with other people and making it publically known through social media #bestfriends right? Its okay though, I forgive you completely. I honestly deserved it, but I have realized that, and I also have realized that I guess I should be doing the same thing.

So I hope if we are not brought back together, you can find it within yourself to remember the good times we had, the memories we made, and the ways that we used to stay up all night studying.

Thanks for being such a big part in my life, thanks for helping me become a better me, and thanks for once being my friend.

I hope you can remember how great you are. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Never get discouraged, because you can do it. Stay strong even when it gets hard, trust me life does get hard. Keep doing you girl, I hope you do nothing but succeed in life.

Stay Groovy,

A Friend Who Has Lost You

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.
