6 Reasons Wearing Glasses Is Literally The Worst

Glasses can be cute and trendy, but they can also be a nightmare.

If you don't wear glasses, consider yourself blessed. I am jealous.

When I was growing up, I thought glasses were so cute and I would steal my dad's pair and wear them around until I got in trouble. I was so excited when I could add another accessory to my outfits. There are these perks, but trust me when I say I didn't think of the annoying factors to wearing glasses.

1. Falling asleep with glasses


Before I got glasses, I could be watching tv in bed or the couch and drift asleep until the morning. Now, I have to decide: "Do I want to be blind watching tv? Or do I risk breaking my glasses for this show?" Let me know.

2. Searching for my glasses

Isn't it ironic? You have to wear glasses to see, but when you wake up in the morning searching for your glasses blind. It's a hard life, for sure.

3. Hats and glasses don't mix

I don't know about other people, but I love baseball hats. It's perfect for a bad hair day and can make your outfit more fun. But let me tell you, the curved rims and glasses don't mix. So every morning I am stuck wondering if I should choose the hat or the glasses.

4. Dirty lenses

My glasses used to be pristine. The lenses would be clear, spotless and perfect. I couldn't live with dirty glasses. However, as time went on, more fingerprints got on them and I had to clean them so often. Now, I have accepted my dirty lenses because I can't be bothered cleaning my glasses every hour.

5. Exercising and glasses are not a good combo.

I used to enjoy exercising and running outside during the summer. But once I got glasses, I hated having them slide off constantly or bouncing up and down on my face. I saw that I stopped running outdoors because I hated going out without my glasses to look at the blurry trees and people ahead of me. Also, it never applied to me, but when my friends were young, they had to have goggles to play sports because of their vision. Glasses are a hassle.

6. Summer sweat and slippery glasses

When the summer hits and you are sweating all day, the glasses always slide down your nose and I have spent one too many days dealing with this problem.

I love glasses and they can be a great accessory to my outfit or mood that they, but they do come with baggage and can be a small hassle in my everyday life. These are just a few of relatable issues I face wearing glasses!

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.
