What It's Like To Be In Love

If you've ever been in true love you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. There's that one person who drives you absolutely crazy. In good ways and bad. You fight over the dumbest stuff, but at the end of the day there's no one else you'd rather get in bed next to every night. You feel so loved, supported, and important. They make you feel good about yourself. They never tear you down. They make you feel beautiful on your worst days. They make you laugh even when you aren't sure you even remember how to smile.

When you're in love you'll do anything just so to see that one person smile. You'd drop everything just to make sure that their needs were met. You fight for them every day. No fight is too big or lasts too long. After a fight, you go back ten minutes later and it's like the whole thing never happened. The feelings you have never go away. They just keep getting stronger and stronger every single day.

You hear a love song and suddenly it's not cheesy and stupid anymore. You think of that person and smile. Maybe even shed a tear because you realize how lucky you are to have someone like them in your life. Any time something bad happens, you run to them like they are your shelter. You need them more than you need air. You can't get enough of them. The thought about them being with anyone else except you makes you physically sick.

They are home. They put your heart at ease. Things with them seem simple. When all hell breaks loose, they are the one you run to. You don't have to think about anything except the fact that you know that you are a hundred percent safe when you are with them. You are safe from physical harm, mental stress, and emotional pain. They are your sanctuary. They are your assurance that there is still some good in this chaotic world. They are your rock. The one stable thing you have. They are your home.

With them, you feel like you can conquer the entire world. No task is too big and no problem is too complicated with them by your side. Superman has nothing on you when you're in love. You'll do anything to make sure they are safe too.

But the most amazing thing about being in love is they make you realize that being in love is as great as it seems in the movies. Yes, you have your downfalls and fights but the love you receive and give is worth so much more than any of the negative things you could ever endure in your relationship.

Being in love with the right one will be one of the best things that will ever happen to you. I promise.

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.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
