Struggles wearing glasses

I recently started wearing glasses because of my poor vision. It has just been few days and I felt very difficult to wear it. May be it is happening because wearing glasses has not been my habit for so long but problems that I am facing are really bad. When my friends with glasses told me these problems I used to react like "OK". But now I am facing these all. Don't get me wrong: Glasses can be super cute and a totally heavy accessory at same time. Here I have shared difficulties I personally find wearing glasses.


1. Picking out new glasses is stressful

I am wearing glasses for the first time. And guess what, I spent hours only to choose the frame for my glasses. I mean it's really hard when it comes to choosing frames. I hope next time I will take much less time than this.

2. Cleaning your glasses all the time

You always feel like your glasses are not clean and you end up cleaning constantly.

3. Doing any king of sports is much more difficult
Each time you play you are worried about breaking your glasses and losing too.

4. Your glasses constantly slide down your nose

This only happens to me or what? Since it's my first time I guess the relation of my glass and my nose is not so strong. So my glass just keep sliding down and poor me, I keep managing it all the time.

5. Backhanded compliment
"You're so pretty without your glasses."

6. Sweat is your worst enemy
When it is hot outside and you sweat you need to readjust them every 3 seconds.

7. Actually rain is your worst enemy

There is no way to stop it from getting on your glasses and making it completely impossible to see. I guess there should be thing like glasses-wipers.

8. Feels like you can never win with makeup
Your glasses either hide all your hard work, or make everything look super over the top.

9. People assume you are smart

I really don't wanna take this. My level of intelligence is totally independent of the fact that I wear glasses. Somebody please make people understand this.

10. Feel like a burden to face

It's feels like something extra is there in your face. And it is true that glasses add that extra part in your face. You feel like free and totally fresh when you remove them from your face even if that is for some minutes. 

11. Nose and ear hurt

Since I am a beginner to wearing glasses, they hurt my nose and ear a lot. According to my mother it won't last forever. Pain decreases with increase of experience.

12. Fogging up 

You can't drink coffee, tea or hot chocolate without your glasses fogging up.
