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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to come to terms with having more facial hair than my boyfriend, despite being female since birth. 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

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!

Frankly, YDI for not telling him at the start of the relationship.

Probably because of this reaction? If op gets a lot of crap over it, it's understandable she wouldn't be comfortable telling people straight away.

Screw him, PCOS is awful (assuming you suffer from it as well) I'm lucky enough to not have that symptom but have plenty of other problems from my PCOS and know how you feel.

At least he didn't try to get you in the circus...

If he liked you enough before finding out about the medical condition, he obviously couldn't tell you even had one. I mean, I can understand maybe not being attracted to a woman who grows out her beard, but if you're not that person, what gives? Just cruel. A lot more women have issues with facial hair and stray whiskers than he realizes. It's unfortunate anyone has to be ashamed of that.
