Life of a klutz is one of much pain for you and everyone you are around. It is painful for your friends to walk next to you because they know there is a solid chance you will completely wipe out at any second. It is better to keep their distance from you because of the injuries you could inflict on them at any given time. When walking by yourself you can’t be on your phone because of the risk it causes to you falling down. This has been my life since I was born. My mom chalked it up to me being an awkward child, but that is no longer the case. I am just clumsy. If you can relate to these 10 reasons, you know you live the life of a clumsy person
1. Waking up with random bruises on you.
Wake up to an unusual amount of bruises on your body after a night out or just because you took a hard fall the other day? These bruises have become a regular appearance on your skin, and you are use to them at this point.
2. Running into sliding glass windows.
If you have never walked into one of these consider yourself lucky. Majority of the times I will walk straight into them and bounce right back off. Only hard core clumsy people have the ability to accomplish this feat.
3. Tripping on thin air.
Walking down the sidewalk and next thing you know you are on the ground? Look back and find out there is no uneven pavement or loose bricks? You lie to yourself and say your untied shoes caused it. However in reality it's because you can't walk to save your life.
4. Sliding down the stairs.
If you have ever been walking down the stairs looking at your phone and haven’t tripped over your feet you have been blessed by the man upstairs. Only clumsy people know how embarrassing it is to fall down the stairs in front of everyone. In fact it isn’t even like you fall, it's more you do multiple summersaults down and hope you stick the landing.
5. Slipping during the winter time.
Oh, there is snow on the ground? Forget about it, you are donezo. Somehow everyone around you is managing walking around just fine, but of course you can't and land on your butt. This seems impossible because you’re in snow boots -- but, nah, you can make the impossible possible.
6. Slipping during the summer time.
Oh, there is water on the pool deck? Yeah, you should be fine. Nope -- you lied to yourself, somehow you ended up face first on the concrete ground in front of everyone at the pool. How did that happen? Good question, you don’t even know the answer too. Hopefully, you didn’t embarrass yourself too much.
7. Cracking your iPhone because you fell.
If you have a crack on your iPhone, it is most likely because you somehow slipped and fell; thus taking the iPhone down with you. It is easier to tell people it just slipped out of your hand, but only you and your bruised ego know the real truth.
8. Forget dressing up.
You can never dress up for anything because you will either fall and ruin the outfit, or spill something all over yourself. All of your outfits probably have a stain of food or dirt on them.
9. Falling up the stairs.
Walking up the stairs is an even bigger issue then going down them and twice as embarrassing when you trip. Usually falling up the stairs ends up in bruises all over your hands and wrists. People probably give you weird looks because they know idea how you managed tripping.
10. Your friends keep a safe distance from you.
Your friends don’t even care that you fall anymore. They know you will eventually get up and hope for the best when you go down.
