My Unwritten Obligation to You

What your friendship means to me.

My Unwritten Obligation to You
The Mountain View Cottage

To my best friends,y my sorority, and my family,

I have loved each and every single on of you since the moment we met, and I fall in more in love with you all every time I see you. I can't thank you enough for the continuous years (months, weeks, days, hours) you've been there for me. You've stood by me from my middle school scene phase. You've stood by me the multiple times I changed my major. You've stood by me during my mental breakdowns because sometimes a girl just needs to vent. You've been through it all with me. I'm eternally grateful for each and every single one of you.

But I wonder if you know my hopes and intentions for our relationship?

Of course I'll be there to make you laugh when someone hurts you. I'll be there to pick you up in struggles. I'll be there to drive you to get food, or to the mall, or just to drive. But I want you to know that I am here for you when it's 4 am and you can't see the morning light. I am here for you when you hit rock bottom. I will be your guide back to the rocky path because you were mine when I lost myself. Without you all, I would've never found my footing. So that's what I'll do for you.

I will be your voice of reason when you're concocting some scheme, or when you get down on yourself just because you are human and you made a mistake. I will carry your heart with me wherever I go because you are my willpower, you are my drive. With you, I can do anything. So that's what I'll be for you.

I want you to know that even if we fight, because we're both incredibly headstrong, I still look at you with the same light in eyes. I want you to know that I will always be honest with you even if it hurts, because I would want you to be honest with me. I want you to know that yes, I will join you in your crazy adventures because you stood by me in mine. I'll try to be all this for you, and more.

You are not just my best friend, or family member, or roommate, or sorority sister, you are a part of me and without you, I would be nothing. Because the small pieces of you, make up my being. You taught me to love myself, and to embrace those pieces of me.

So no matter where you may be, across the country, down the road, or another country; I carry you in my heart and soul, and will be your person anytime you need.

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.
