18 Struggles Only Girls Who Are Chronically Hungry Understand

You know how when you meet a new guy you're really into, you want to be with, text, hug and spoon him all the time? 24/7? But you know that you can't, because it would be super creepy, freak him out, and lead you to inevitably die alone someday?

Think of being a chronically hungry girl in those terms: food is that amazing dude, and we need him. But we know that if we actually had him that much and that often, we'd have diabetes instead of a boyfriend.

Basically, food is a wonderful thing. It's so wonderful, in fact, that it can sometimes be crippling.

If you've ever found yourself stashing snacks in your desk drawer at work to the point of being completely unable to find a pen, or planning your weekends around where and when you score some macaroni and cheese, it means something: you, like me, are chronically hungry. Or, just bored and telling yourself that you're hungry so you have an excuse to gorge.

In any case, here's how hard life can be when you world revolves around your next fix of edibles. And we're not talking about the marijuana variety, because you don't need it — you already have the munchies constantly.
