1. People try to hug you and you literally have no idea what to do.
Ohhh, please don't, no, it's fine, really...
2. You hate literally every single picture that has ever been taken of you because you look awkward AF.
:: untags literally every picture of yourself ::
3. And you try to pose in pictures and end up FAILING SO HARD.
What do I do with my hands?
4. You pretty much never know what to do in any situation, so you end up doing something to make yourself even more awkward.
:: points at everyone you see ::
5. And it's impossible for you to take a selfie because you somehow always end up making this face.
LOL I AM SO CUTE.
6. Group pictures become the subject of your nightmares.
Because you ALWAYS stand out... by being awkward.
7. You have gotten REALLY good at avoiding eye contact.
Because you never know WHERE TO LOOK.
8. You have no idea how to accept compliments.
"You look pretty!" YEAH, THE WEATHER IS NICE!
9. And the art of flirting is something you're *still* trying to master.
"Compliment." —Someone
* runs away * —You
10. Everyone told you that you would eventually grow out of your awkward stage but... you're still waiting.
"Mom, can you call my boss for me?"
11. You have no idea how to talk to people you don't know.
* Yells out an incomprehensible sentence in their ear *
12. All of your friends are just as awkward as you are.
That's why you get along.
13. You get upset when people throw around the word "awkward" because they tripped over a sidewalk ONE TIME.
LIKE HELLO WELCOME TO MY EVERYDAY LIFE. COVERED IN BRUISES FROM TRIPPING.
14. Sometimes you legitimately forget how to smile.
JUST MOVE UP YOUR MOUTH, IT WILL BE FINE.
15. Your life basically becomes a sitcom, except people are laughing at you and not with you.
BEING AWKWARD IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM, TV STATIONS EVERYWHERE.
16. Wedding receptions are the bane of your existence because you try to avoid dancing in public if at all possible.
* Does the robot for 30 minutes straight *
17. And trying to pose for a romantic picture is OUT OF THE QUESTION.
"Should I put my arm around you?"
18. You have mastered the art of the awkward laugh.
Because you do it in every conversation, ever.
19. And no matter how hard you try, your awkwardness comes out in texts too.
Blame EVERYTHING on autocorrect.
20. If you see someone you know in public, you immediately try to hide.
And hope to GOD they didn't catch a glimpse of you.
21. And basically, there will never be a time that you AREN'T being awkward.
Because you were born this way, baby.
