To The Love Of My Life

No one can make me smile the way you can.

To The Love Of My Life

I most definitely did not expect to find someone like you when I did.

We both had a few difficult few months before I stumbled upon you. Sometimes I wish we were together sooner, but then again, I wouldn't change a single thing about us. It's hard to form the right words to describe how much you mean to me because I could go on for hours talking about you. I've come to realize that when you find the person who makes you smile wider than you've ever smiled and makes all the hard times worth the tears...nothing feels better.

I see posts on the internet all the time that say to date your best friend. That statement couldn't be truer.

In fact, that is my favorite part of us. You're my very best friend. I complain about school, family, work, and other things that bother me to no end, and you just listen, give me advice, and tell me the truth, even if I don't want to hear it. We can watch hours and hours of Family Guy and Prison Break, (of course with some breaks in between to stuff our faces.) I would rather stay in and watch bad Netflix movies all cuddled up with you and the puppy and eat ice cream than go out to a party at school any day. No matter what we are doing, I'm having fun.

I think that's when you know you've found "your person." When you can sit on the couch all day and still be having the time of your life.

I feel like I never stop talking about you but I couldn't care less. I know for a fact that there is not one moment that passes during my day when my thoughts aren't racing and thinking about you. I spend my weekdays counting down the days, hours, minutes, and seconds until I get to be in your arms again.

The past seven months with you have been more than I could have ever imagined. Every heartbreak I went through and every moment that felt like my world was falling apart was worth it, because in the end, it led me to you.

When I met you, I didn't think love was realistic. I didn't think that anyone could love someone so selflessly and endlessly. I was so pessimistic about love. I had created this big wall to block out all feelings, afraid of being let down again. You came in and knocked that wall down like you owned the place. You quickly stole my heart and I'll forever be grateful for how much you have changed my life. You picked up the pieces others had abandoned and pieced me back together, just like a puzzle you knew by heart.

I'll always remind you of how much I love you and care about you. I will always be proud of your accomplishments, no matter how small they may be, because you deserve to be reminded of how loved you are. It is the best feeling in the world when you find someone who you adore with every part of your heart.

I love you even when you argue with me about everything when you think you're right, when you never like the clothes I pick for you, when you drag me all the way to the gym when I don't feel motivated, when you refuse to let me drive your car, and even when you don't finish the pancakes I make for you in the morning. Love is about loving every single part of someone...every single part. I love your little freckles on your nose, how you laugh like a little kid, your smile, your everything.

It is so easy to write something you love, which is why it's so easy to write about you. I feel like no matter how much I say, I'll never get it all out. I feel like no matter how much time I spend with you, it's never enough time. Each moment I spend with you is never wasted.

I can't wait to see what our future holds together, and what kind of amazing person you'll continue to become. Thank you for all your love. I love you most!

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.
