Today, I found out why my boyfriend likes to do my hair and makeup for me. Far from it being some kind of fetish or hobby, it's because he thinks I do such a crappy job that feels he has to apply it himself so I don't "embarrass" him when we're out in public together. FML

Today, I was doing my makeup. Halfway through, I asked my SO what he thought of it, as I was working on a new eyeshadow technique. He said my eyeshadow looked great, but that, "One eyebrow is up here and the other is down there," and that I should fix it. I hadn't done my eyebrows yet. That's just where they are. FML

Today, after months of asking my massage therapist boyfriend to work on me, and him always saying he’s too tired to do so, I called my local spa to make an appointment. He then screamed at me for wasting money and for going to the competition when he could just do the job himself. I'm confused too. FML

A boyfriend who cares about your appearance, is proactive and willing to take initiative- why are you complaining?

No, the real reason is that he wants to make you look like a clown to run off the competitors!

I've never met a guy who can apply make-up better than a girl. I'm impressed.

I once heard a guy say "nobody knows makeup better than a transgender trying to look like a woman". I think it holds some truth, if you watch a video of a guy putting on makeup on YouTube.

What an obsessive, vain jerk who is more concerned about what everybody else thinks than OP's feelings.

I know I'll get a negative response, but I have to agree. There's so many alternatives to this.

I would love this! (Apart from the you suck at it part ...) If I had a boyfriend who had the skills and willingness to do my hair and make up, I would be thrilled. Just sit back, relax and pretend you're a movie star.

Totally off topic, but I can't remember the name of the movie your profile picture is from and my boyfriend and I have watched it several times. Would you be interested in telling meeeee?

I'm all for people making me pretty... But my boyfriend... I'd start getting a little concerned at why he would be better than me

Why don't you just learn from him OP and then try yourself under his guidance? Unless your makeup looks clownish why do you think it's so embarrassing to be seen out it public? What do your friends think?
