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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

I'm sorry you had to deal with such poor luck on this special day. Although I can understand that it must not have felt good to be laughed at by him, at least he tried to lighten up the situation. It was his way of trying to make you feel better and that's sweet. Sounds like you got yourself a caring husband. Also, don't worry because you'll probably laugh about this someday.

He has a great sense of humor though lol

He's just trying to make you feel better by showing you that it doesn't bother him.

Don't worry. Enjoy your day. The pictures can always be digitally enhanced after the event. Many companies specialise in this. Breaking out in spots/cold sores is more common than you think before an important time.

At least take comfort in the fact that he stayed at the altar even after seeing your outbreak. (Assuming this was written AFTER the wedding)

"The free ride when you've already paid!" What ever happened to Alanis Morissette? Did she just rebrand herself as Avril Lavigne?

Someone had a free ride on her face?

Have your husband wear a monocle and a top hat with his tux as go as The Penguin, then say you've got a Batman Villain-themed wedding. Getting a Riddler clergyman could be tough, but he does ask a lot of tricky questions.

I'd be willing to bet he already has it. Their wedding day isn't the only time they will have kissed.
