Today, it's my wedding day. I have a cold sore that makes me look like The Joker. Make-up won't cover it and the emergency medicine my doctor gave me only irritates it more. My future husband asks, "Why so serious?" and laughs whenever he sees me. Fantastic. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I have what is probably a cold sore on my upper lip. I also have a mustache, which keeps rubbing against it. Because of this, no matter what I do, it stings. The next few days are fixing to be very, very long and miserable. FML
Today, my brother and his girlfriend got married. I got a pretty bad pimple on my nose not long before, and I'd tried to pop it. It turned into a really bad scab instead, so I put makeup on it. I didn't notice until after the wedding that the makeup made the scab look badly infected. FML
Today, was my wedding day. Right before I walked down the aisle in my gorgeous white dress, the woman who did my makeup saw a blemish. She went to squirt concealer on her finger, but squirted the orange concealer all over my dress. FML
Today, it's my wedding day. It was meant to be perfect. The bouquet, along with a high pollen count, set my hay fever off. I walked down the aisle in front of 200 people with streaming eyes and a runny nose; I then had a sneezing fit during my vows and blew a large snot bubble. Real attractive. FML
Today, as always, I have a type of eczema that flares up when I'm stressed out or anxious. And today, the girl I've been in love with for 4 years asked me out on a date. We meet up in a few hours, and right now I look like I have smallpox. FML
Today, I woke up with bronchitis and hemorrhoids. I'm getting married in 3 days. FML
Today, I went on a first date with my crush. Right before the date, I noticed a monstrous pimple in the middle of my forehead. I covered it with make-up, but it was still visible. The guy spent the whole evening laughing at me and telling me that I look like an unicorn. FML
Today, I reassured everyone at work that the mark on my lip was just a pimple, not a cold sore. It's actually neither. I, a 21-year-old young woman, slipped while shaving my moustache and sliced off part of my lip. FML
Today, poorly applied makeup made it look like I have a black eye in most of my wedding photos. I would have laughed it off, but I was showing them to my brother who was deployed during the actual wedding. He saw the black eye, assumed it was domestic abuse, and attacked my husband. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me an early wedding present. I opened the box and inside was the most adorable cat I've ever seen! It got scared, jumped out, clawed my face and pissed everywhere. My wedding is tomorrow and I look like Frankenstein's bride. FML

am I the only one that would reschedule the wedding so I didn't have to kiss her after the vows and get herpes 2?

Your future husband sounds like a stand up guy. I'd just have told you you look like sh*t. You lucky girl.

Friends references always make me mad that I can't thumb something up twice.

Hopefully the Batman theme song didn't play at your wedding...

That is unfortunate, but remember it is your wedding day. It is meant to be the beginning of a lifetime shared with your partner. Honestly, who really cares if not everything is exactly perfect?

Well it is supposed to be the most beautiful day of their lifes, so I guess it was very important in her eyes that everything is perfect. And who would love to have an irritated skin the D day ? Hiding away from pictures won't make it right as she wants to remember her wedding :D.

yeah, who wants irritated skin on 06/06/1944?!

I think it's cool that the husband doesn't take this too seriously. I have a feeling your marriage will be a lot of fun

My husband got escorted up the aisle by my father in law and my boss flanking him holding baseball bats in case he tried to run. I almost peed myself laughing

Hopefully the photographer uses some good editing software. If they are they can make it disappear.

The fact that he is trying to make you feel better and doesn't really seem to make a big deal out of ut is proof to me that you married the right guy. Congrats OP :)

The joker look is in.

Use a liquid band-aid to seal it, THEN use concealer on top of that, but under your foundation.

I personally have never had this problem, but my boyfriend does. I know this is disgustingly weird but what he used to do was "open" the sore (tearing it open or whatever) and then he'd put alcohol in it, and one of those many creams (for sores) on it, and the next day it would look so much better, and then it would fade completely away in 5 days or so... I don't know if that's what you're supposed to do because I personally don't have those and so I've never done it, but it seems to work for him :) Congratulations on the wedding OP!
