Today, I finally told my boyfriend I have a medical condition that makes me grow an unusual amount of hair on my face, so I shave every day. He said he was leaving me because he refuses to be with a "bearded lady". FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I had to come to terms with having more facial hair than my boyfriend, despite being female since birth. FML
Today, my husband won't shave his beard, despite the fact it grows in wiry and looks like pubic hair. He is now accusing me of "not loving him for who he is." FML
Today, I told my boyfriend that I don't like his facial hair and that he should shave it off. He replied, "You first." FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me. Apparently, my nose hair scares him. FML
Today, my boyfriend, who hasn't shaved in a month, went to go shave. I was pretty excited since his beard was starting to make my face itch whenever we kissed. When he came out of the bathroom he had a handlebar mustache. FML
Today, after I watched my girlfriend get her head shaved in preparation for chemo a few days ago, I took the clippers and buzzed my long, well kept hair, gave her a loving hug, reminding her that, "We're at this together." She later broke up with me because I, pretty much, "look like shit." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he'd help me shave my mustache. I'm a girl. FML
Today, my wife told me that she was leaving me for someone with more hair. FML
Today, I confided to my boyfriend that I have a condition that causes me to grow thick toe hair. He now won't stop calling me "the sexy Hobbit." FML
Today, I completely shaved my head as a gesture for my boyfriend's mother, who was suffering from cancer and having a terrible time undergoing chemotherapy. Turns out she doesn't even have cancer, and my boyfriend thought I wouldn't have the guts to do it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

He is just intimidated at the fact that you are more of a man than he is.

You're better off without him OP! Nobody should be judged for something they can't control, I'm sure you're still beautiful inside and out!

He is not man enough to be with a hairy girl!! You are better off him!!

Not man enough? This doesn't have anything to do with manliness. He is just an asshole.

#1 OP isn't in fact hairy because as she stated she shaves everyday. Your logic sounds as stupid as the dumbass that left OP. And OP, if you're ever looking into permanent hair removal, lasering works wonders!! (:

So he can't have a preference on what he is attracted to? He was an asshole about it but did nothing morally wrong.

#29 you said he was an asshole about it, but he did nothing morally wrong... That's pretty contradicting. you should look up what morally means.

33, You're absolutely correct. If you don't want to be with someone end it respectfully and be matured about it. Clearly this one individual has no sense of the above mentioned.

You have no idea if OP is beautiful. She could be extremely ugly
gosh_mate 30
I didn't mean beautiful as in appearance. I count beauty with the person as a whole.

How is this very different from men choosing not to grow beards? She shaves it, so she doesn't have a beard normally. It's not like she decided to grow it or anything.

You said inside an out, so yes, you meant physical beauty as well.

I disagree. Everybody chooses romantic partners based on things that the other person can't control, whether it be personality or physical appearance. If you're not attracted to someone as they are, you're not attracted to that person. How is OP's covering up her hirsutism any different from a woman who slathers on makeup to hide her true features?

I must be the only one offended by this. Just because she has facial hair doesn't mean she's ''more manly" I know you probably didn't mean it that way but I suffer from pcos (I'm lucky I didn't get the hair problem) and it kinda hurts still to be told you're more manly than a male because of facial hair. I mean I wouldn't want to be told that. Just saying. Again I know you probably didn't mean it like that

#43 Shut up he was making a joke obviously.
MzZombicidal 36
#48, it may have been a joke but that doesn't mean that #43 can't be offended by it. Especially when they suffer the exact same problem as OP who the comment from #4 is for.

#43 You're not the only one offended by it. It's incredibly offensive. I suffer from some hormone issues as well and have a few stray hairs on my chin every now and then. It's not a huge deal but is still something I'm embarrassed about because people are so judgmental.

Ugh.... I'm personally not too offended by joke, but I tend to get some facial hair. I worked with a lady who always had her facial hair also (very noticeable no matter) but she didn't seem bothered by it. What happened to me with mine was that it was very subtle, but a man literally came up to me and said, "you're a beautiful young woman, but you need to shave", then he rubbed his chin, nodded then walked away again. I've been very uncomfortable with that since I could barely see it, but a random person saw it better. I hate it when others are so judgemental.

Don't worry op, if he can't stay with you because of a medical condition and you just can't help it then he does not deserve you.

Screw that douchebag, you deserve better

Your picture made your comment when better.

It's hurtful that he's not an understanding person, but we all have something we cannot control in our lives or are insecure about. Stay strong & shave on proudly.

I see a blank space. Is that really your comment, or is my phone ******* up? If it indeed is just a blank space, how did it get posted?
