I have perfected the art of being awkward. I don’t know why I can’t be cool Jessica, who always says the right thing, who doesn’t always do things that make everyone around her uncomfortable… but I just can’t. Ask anyone who knows me: I am an awkward person – and I’ve finally learned to be fine with it.
But being awkward is… well, awkward. The positives? It makes life interesting and hilarious almost all the time. I have a lot of embarrassing stories that bring much amusement to my friends and family. The negatives? I almost always look like total doof.
For anyone who can totally relate to me, this post is for you. This is what being awkward is really like, explained in GIFs:
Whenever I do anything social, ever, it’s like:

When I say stuff that I probably should have kept private, people are always like:

When I say something really stupid in front of one of my bosses, they’re just like:

Whenever I try to talk to my crush and instead I mumble, I try to play it off like:

When I do something weird in a crowded room and I try to act like it didn’t happen, I’m like:

And then I’m just like, “Um, okay, bye!”

When my crush compliments me and I’m so happy I don’t know what to do, this is usually how I react:

When I’m on a really bad date, it’s like:

Or maybe it’s like this:

That time I walked into the wrong house (again, don’t ask), it was like:

When I try to drink and look happy at the same time I look like this:

My response to basically anything I do:

And everyone else is like:

We didn’t choose the awkward life, the awkward life chose us cx lol
Lol. I like the one where she’s brushing her hair with a fork.. I hit my crush in the face once. We were on the bus and he kept tickling me, and I spazz out really bad when I’m tickled and I kept telling him to stop. He didn’t. I spazzed and elbowed him in the nose… Well.. I told him to stop. No one else saw thankfully but I felt so bad. He was okay though.
Omg basically my life, I’m really awkward too so I can relate to this
I’m totally an awkward person and I can totally relate to the one where you hit your crush in the face… omg it was in front of nearly the 2 entire classes of 40-50 people and i did one of my signature “big” gestures and I smacked him in the nose and i was mortified. Luckily he being the guy he is just shook it off and laughed (he was not hurt), but right before he did, the gif was totally the look on my face! I could not believe it had happened! anyways we are still pretty great friends so I’m happy!
I would love to hear the story of walking into the wrong house.
