You're A True Friend

An open letter to one of my best friends.

Hannah Montana once sang the lyrics "You're a true friend you're here till the end. You pull me aside
when something ain't right talk with me now and into the night, til it's alright again. You're a true friend". And this friend is one of the best friends that I could ever ask for. She is my "wife", my "sister" and my ground. I go to her for anything at anytime and she is always there for me. She may do the typical things that any best friend, or at least a good friend, would do: but she has been here for me since the sixth grade and has not left since.

Dear true friend,

You are my other soulmate. You are the other half to me that knows what is wrong and how to fix it. You are the one who can tame my anger, sadness, and everything in between. My life would not be the same without you.

We do not talk to each other often anymore, nor do we see each other nearly as much as before. But it is said that real friends can go through months without talking to each other, and will remain just as close. And with you, I think it is most definitely true. Thank you for always having a shoulder for me to lean on or someone to vent to when I am upset.

I cannot imagine a world without our shenanigans and machinations. I love our typical white-girl Starbucks run and our random adventures. I miss our sleepovers and making posters with you. But I know that those experiences will have always brought us closer.

You are one of the closest, and best, friends that I have had the chance to grow up with. Whether it being you keeping me in line or finding ways to support me or cheer me up regardless of the circumstances, you always know the right things to say and do. You and I can talk for hours about silly little things or go to Plaster Fun Time, paint, and do subtle things. You are a one-of-a-kind best friend who has been there for me since the beginning of middle school. Then, we tied the knot in eight grade, making you my "wife".

I can never, and will never, be able to find another soulmate like you. Miley said it best as Hannah Montana: you're a true friend.

Love always,

your sister, wife, and weird-ass friend.

No matter what the distance is, no matter who they befriend later in life, a true friend will always stick by your side. They are your best friend, your weirdest companion, and often times: your other soulmate (if not your only soulmate). They are the friends who pull you aside when something isn't right and talks with you all night. And nobody can ever replace that true friend; because they are here until the very end.

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.
