Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend saw me without make-up for the first time we've been dating for two years. He freaked because he didn't know who I was. FML
Today, I decided not to wear any makeup. I got told 13 times at work that I looked ill. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I can stop using makeup, because it's "not working." FML
Today, I went into work for the first time without make-up. My boss thought I looked so tired and ill that he sent me home. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me if I wear makeup much. Expecting him to say something about my natural beauty, I replied with an honest, "No." His smiled softly, gently squeezed my shoulder, and said, "Maybe you should." FML
Today, all of my friends and teachers asked me what was wrong because I looked sad and tired. One kid even said that I looked like "an abused housewife the day after." I was fine. It was the first time I went to school without wearing any makeup. FML
Today, I went to school without makeup. No one recognized me. FML
Today, I didn't put any makeup on my acne-ridden and newly sun-burnt face. Today was also the first time I've ever run into my crush outside of work, all while trying to parallel park in a car that hasn't been washed in 6 months. I hit the car behind me. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me I'm beautiful. Before I could thank him, he continued, "Too bad it takes a shit-load of makeup." FML
Today, while hanging out with my boyfriend, I started getting ready for bed. As I grabbed my face wipes, he said, “Wait, don't take off your makeup because then you'll be ugly.“ FML

That's the thing with wearing make up all the time: no one appreciates your true beauty since they're all used to the fake you :( fyl OP

He didn't mean it in a rude way, he probably thought you really did get punched! I know how it feels, I have dark circles that are so bad, people ask how I got my black eyes. He was just used to the you with makeup on! But in time I'm sure he'll get used to it, and he'll think you're beautiful just the way you are ;)

Happened to me too when I tried it... Some people actually look a lot different with and without makeup!

93 - That'd be a hell of a shallow relationship if their love is based on appearance alone.

I think it'd be the other way around for me. I have never worn makeup and people would think I looked weird with it.

96) this story is getting more and more confusing, my baby brother learnt how to walk when he was 1 and a half years old, and who the hell would stand there and record that?

He was just looking out for her, making sure she wasn't hurt. He probably would've tried to find out who hit her so that he could hit whoever hit her.
