10 Uncomfortable Signs You're The 'Awkward Friend'
NY Mag

1. You’re the clumsiest

And you probably have a nickname related to being the biggest klutz.

2. You’re the loudest.

You're probably so focused on trying not to say anything weird that you're actually getting louder and louder by the second.

3. You often find your friend’s cutting you off right before you say something awkward in conversation.

Remember that time you started telling the cute boy at the bar all about your weird junior high years and your best friend rerouted the conversation? Yeah, have you thanked her for that lately?

4. Most everything comes out of your mouth in sarcasm or satire form.

You can't help it. Sarcasm is just your awkwardness defense mechanism. You come in two flavors: weird or sarcastic. Take it or leave it.

5. You usually follow up an awkward situation by telling the witnesses of a time something even more awkward happened to make the current situation seem better.

You're just trying to make them understand that you don't need their pity, this is just what your life is.

6. You laugh at inappropriate times.

Part of being awkward is getting even more awkward when you find yourself in an already awkward situation.

7. You don’t usually realize that you’re being awkward.

This is who you are. The awkwardness has become one with your personality.

8. You use random fun facts in conversation.

People are constantly reminding you to just stay chill so you force yourself to act normal. Normal people bring up random fun facts, right? It seemed normal coming out of your mouth until the awkward silence hit.

9. You don’t always think before you speak.

Blurt things out much? Yeah, it happens to the best of us.

10. Your friends often apologize to new people for your awkward behavior.

They love you for who you are but they also find it necessary to explain away your awkwardness.

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.
