12 Signs You Should Be On 'The Real Housewives'
Are you a Real Housewives fan? Maybe you're a secret watcher and don't want your boyfriend to know how much of an addiction this reality series is for you, or maybe you are super open about your love for this franchise and don't care who knows it. We've probably all wondered what it would be like to be on TV, particularly on reality TV, maybe because it seems like any old regular person could appear on one of these shows. It's not like you need to be an Oscar-winning actor, right? But it's safe to say that a lot of the women on this show seem like pretty good actresses, and they have a real flair for the dramatic. The camera loves these ladies, you could definitely say. But you might be more suited to the reality TV lifestyle than you might think. Here are 12 signs you should be on The Real Housewives.
12 You Act Famous
You may not have a camera crew following you around on the reg, but you pretty much act like it. You have loud phone conversations as if people around you are dying to know what you're chatting about. You speak pretty loudly, too, in general, because that's just how you roll. You wear sunglasses even in the winter because, hey, you look awesome in them and why not admit it?
11 You're Charming
People that love you know that you're not as silly as you sometimes can seem. They have gotten to know the great woman that you are and get that you're more intelligent than you might be on the surface. But you're also super charming, and everyone falls in love with you when they meet you because they just can't help themselves.
10 You're Unique
You've got a super original, unique characteristic about yourself. It might be your job, it might be your accent, it might be your fashion sense or your weird (or, um, quirky) sense of humor. But all housewives have this kind of thing about them. They're completely themselves and that's exactly why they get cast.
9 You Fight With People 24/7
It's pretty clear and obvious that these women love to fight. They can create something out of nothing, time and time again, and most of the fights don't make a ton of sense (if any at all). You might not think of yourself as an argumentative person and might even joke that you're a lover, not a fighter (because don't forget, reality stars love to talk in cliches/pat phrases that the show can repeat over and over again) but you can't help but start fights on a 24/7 basis.
8 You Always Take Things The Wrong Way
You get upset really quickly and always think that people are trying to piss you off or insult you in some way. You might even claim that someone is betraying you -- and you might even say that every single day of your life. You can't help this trait, either, and that's what makes you prime housewife material. Reality stars definitely are easily offended and take stuff the wrong way.
7 You're Hyper Sensitive
You seem to have been born with an extra sensitive chip inside of you or something. People are always wondering why you're crying at super inappropriate times or why you're always upset about someone or something. You don't know why this happens, it's just the way that you've always been. Some of your friends might watch the housewives and be totally confused that they're upset about almost nothing, but you get it because you can 100 percent relate.
6 You Love Lunches Out
These ladies love to go for lunch with their friends on a regular basis. If you dream of having a few afternoon hours to blissfully gossip and chat over salads and coffee (or, um, wine, let's be honest), then you're a total real housewife, even if you're not on your own show (yet). You would go out for lunch every single day of the week if you could -- if you had the time and, of course, had the money, which you definitely don't.
5 You Enjoy Your Wine And Cocktails
Who could forget Ramona Singer's love of Pinot or Bethanny's Skinnygirl Margarita creation? You just can't forget that these ladies love their wine and cocktails. Like a lot. They're never without a drink in their hand when they attend a party or event. If you enjoy your alcohol, well, you're one step away from getting cast on the show's latest version.
4 You Live A Lavish Lifestyle
You may not have a huge budget, but you like to live as if you do. You order champagne when you can (maybe once a year, but hey, it counts, right?) and you buy designer knock-offs so people think you have more funds than you actually do. You aspire to the time when you can own stuff: a condo, a fancy car, even a yacht. Why not dream as big as you possibly can? You love reading gossip magazines and websites and seeing all the fancy stuff that your favorite celebrities are wearing and doing.
3 You Adore Drama
Loving drama is pretty much the number one requirement of being on a reality show, so it shouldn't be a surprise that you're quite the dramatic person. Your friends often accuse you of being an actress and you don't even think that it's an insult because you always take it as a compliment. Hey, why not?
2 You're A Huge Gossip
You don't believe that small minds gossip because it's your favorite thing in the world to do. You love getting bits and pieces of information about the people in your life, whether it's someone you went to preschool with and barely remember, or it's your closest friend. Sure, this gets you into trouble sometimes (okay, all the time) but it's not like you're going to give up gossip anytime soon so people should just get with the program and accept your love of chatting already.
1 You Never Apologize
This is a pretty big thing. If you're ever wondering if you apply to be a cast member of The Real Housewives ever comes knocking on your town or city's door, you know you should if you never, ever say you're sorry. You're not on the same page as Justin Bieber at all on that page (even if you love The Biebs). You rarely see the housewives apologize. They talk in circles, they fight even more, and it's really hard for them to admit that they've done something wrong. They basically always think they're right and that the other woman should say they're sorry. So if you're like this, hey, why aren't you on a show already?
