Default Were You Ever Teased For Wearing Glasses?
I've been wearing glasses for many, many years and I have to say that I was never teased for wearing them. But I do have friends that were teased so badly that they felt that they just had to get contacts to stop their school mates from bothering them.

How about you?

No, not seriously. Sometimes my friends would call me "four eyes" in fun, but no one did to be really mean.

Of course, there were a lot of other reasons to make fun of me as I was growing up . . .

Yup, they won't tease you in front of you but only god know what they say behind your back. I got feedback from my close friend that some of them do make fun of me saying that I am a four eyes ugly chap. Well, you can't stop people from talking about you even it does hurt your feeling. Just have to live with it.

No I wasn't teased, but I was a bit older when I got my first glasses, that can help I think.
I was 19 years old or something like that.
I think that when you like 12 or so it could be very bad and you might get teased with it.

Yup, especially when you are big size, who dare to tease you? They are only asking for trouble.

"That's what friends are for. For good times and for bad times, I 'll be on your side forever...". Sounds familiar? That is the song sang by Dione Warwicks.

Don't put it into your heart, actually I think it is fun. You got teased and you can tease back. It is what we called friendship interaction.
