"Can I try them on?"

13 Struggles You Know If You Wear Glasses
Just Jared

I have worn glasses for basically whole life. I don't feel myself unless I have them on. From this, I have heard the same things over and over again. Here are 13 things you hear and experience if you wear glasses:

1. "Can I try your glasses on?"

I cannot even count the number of times people have asked to try on my glasses. I don't quite understand why they want to, but hey why not?

2. "Do you ever wear contacts?"

If someone wears glasses regularly, it takes a really special occasion for us to not wear our glasses. I am uncomfortable not wearing them and I feel no need to wear contacts.

3. When it rains and everyone worries about their hair usually and we have to worry about being able to see.
4. And thinking every time it rains how convenient it would be to have tiny windshield wipers on our glasses.

5. "Should we see it in 3-D?"

Uhm, no please no.

6. A perk is that if we screw up our makeup a little bit no one will really be able to tell!

7. When you have a smudge on your glasses and you try and wipe it and just end up making the whole lens dirty and instantly hating yourself for it.

8. Trying to lay down on your side like a normal person and quickly realizing it was a huge mistake.

9. Not knowing if you should risk loosing your glasses on a roller-coaster or having to dealing with taking them off and on.

10. We all know what happens when we drink a hot drink...

or open the dishwasher.. or the oven... or go outside on a hot day... or get out of the shower.. or wear a scarf in winter.. yes foggy glasses which make it impossible for us to see anything


11. Wanting to wear sunglasses but also wanting to be able to see what you're doing.

So you get prescription sunglasses and forget to take them off inside and becoming "that person" that wear sunglasses indoors.

12. "You look so pretty without your glasses!"

Uhm, thank you! I think?

13. Getting over excited when you finally get a new pair and feel like a whole new person


Despite all the problems that come with wearing glasses, you wouldn't want it any other way!

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.
