14 Reasons Why Morticia Addams Is My Role Model

Ever since I was young, I have enjoyed watching The Addams Family (TV: 1964-1966). This family-friendly series shows an odder and more gothic take on an American family. Two loving and doting parents, two children, and other fun familial elements, not to mention friends and other relationships! This series is about a family, and displays real issues that go on in life…well, if you’re an Addams, that is.

While there are many great qualities about this show, Morticia Addams has always stuck out to me. She is a multi-faceted character as she is sensible, supportive, and wise. Here are 14 reasons why Morticia is my role model…also, I kind of want to me her when I grow up.

1. She takes pride in her appearance

This is a woman of high-fashion. She knows how to dress her body type, as well as show off her character in her clothing. But most importantly, black.

2. She’s loyal

As a spouse, Morticia is extremely loyal to her dearest, Gomez. Her heart is entirely devoted to her husband. Talk about #marriagegoals, am I right?

3. She has a knack for interior design

Morticia knows how to decorate her house. I’d totally follow her Pinterest boards on home decor.

4. She’s talks about body image in a healthy way

Morticia understands that beauty, while it is nice, is not everything. Beauty can be found in anything and everything, but it does not give something worth.

5. She’s sensible

Sometimes life isn’t the best, it’s okay to acknowledge that.

6. She knows what she likes

The gloomier, the better.

7. Back at it with black

Whether it’s on clothes, decorations, anything, black is the way to go!

8. She offers her lived wisdom

Morticia has gleaned insight over her years and she shares her wisdom with others. Things won’t always go well in life, and that’s okay.

9. She is talented in various aspects and excels at her hobbies

I mean, just look at those moves!

10. She’s a good cook

Being able to cook is an admirable quality, and Morticia knows how to well-season a meal.

11. She is supportive and affirming


Morticia takes pride in her children’s accomplishments and affirms their efforts. Take notes, people.

12. She’s upfront with her emotions

Being upfront with your emotions is difficult, but a very helpful quality to have.

13. She’s refined in various arts

Morticia is a multi-faceted woman! And, she understands the beauty of poetry.

14. She wears pride with an air of humility

Somehow she strikes the perfect balance of pride and humility, maybe one day I’ll get that right. *Probably not*

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.

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.
