You Are Everything I Never Expected

I just want to thank you.

You Are Everything I Never Expected

First of all, I just want to thank you.

Everyone knows that I am not one to step out of my comfort zone, but for some odd reason, I found the courage to give you a chance. It was not easy, I am going to be honest, I had my doubts, but with you, I know I can be myself. This is something that just came naturally to me and it felt so right. I have never had someone who truly understands and accepts me for the person I am. I never have to hold back or pretend with you.

It is crazy how life has a way of sending you on a journey, only to lead you to where you need to be. I look at your past and my past and they are the complete opposite. I have always been the straight A, good girl and you were the "bad boy," who was always in trouble. But I think you needed to go through that phase to get to where you are now because it makes you appreciate the things you have always had.

I could have been like any other person and judged you for the things in your past, but I chose to see the person you are instead. As we began to talk and get to know each other, my whole perception of you changed. It was weird because I have never felt like that before. All of my doubts went away and all I saw was the person I loved in front of me.

The main thing is to not worry about what others may think, the only opinion that maters is yours. If what you're doing is making you a better person, then by all means go for it. You have to learn that it is okay to do things for you and you only. Living life for others only makes you miserable, always do what makes you happy.

"In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take."

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.
