Today, I realized that my boyfriend really does have a problem with my upper-lip hair. I woke up this morning to him ripping a wax strip off of my face. All he could say after I stopped shrieking was that he had hoped it wouldn't wake me up. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I waxed my upper lip hair. My boyfriend later told me that he missed my mustache rubbing onto his. FML
Today, I woke up with a wax strip on my chest and my girlfriend sitting next to me on the bed laughing. She pulled the strip. I screamed. FML
Today, I decided to use an at-home waxing kit for the first time to get rid of the hair on my upper lip. After experiencing the trauma of waxing, I fell asleep. A few hours later, I woke up to see that I now have acne everywhere I had waxed. I have an acne mustache. FML
Today, while making out, my clean-shaven husband pulled away because he could feel my lip hairs tickling him. I thought he was making a joke so I called him a tosser and walked away. Later I checked in the mirror and there they were, two black hairs swinging in the breeze right under my nose. FML
Today, my boyfriend started affectionately calling me "Burt Reynolds" because I wax my upper lip. FML
Today, me and my boyfriend were telling each other secrets, so I told him I shaved my upper lip. He said, "I know, it's prickly when we make out." FML
Today, I woke up to my boyfriend trying to pick my nose. 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 was playing with my hair, when his hand got caught. He ended up ripping out a handful of hair trying to get it free. FML
Today, I was about to go and take a shower when I saw a pair of scissors taped to the door at eye level with a note from my boyfriend saying "Time to trim that hairy thang down under." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Wax his eyebrows off while he's sleeping!

20 - You know what? No, **** that. A girl doesn't have to shave, wax, whatever if she doesn't ******* want to. I don't care who you are, as long as you keep yourself clean, you should never be made to feel bad for having a little facial hair, leg hair, hair wherever. If you find yourself not attracted to such a person, then fine, but don't you DARE try to force your opinion onto someone else like that. That is such an inexcusable invasion of personal space, seriously.

I honestly do not understand you ppl saying her boyfriend is an asshole! That's a complete turn off!! As a woman or man you need to take care of yourself. My fiancé gets regular hair cuts and always trims, I do my eyebrows and upper lip hair very week. Do you see models with any hair??

First of all, who cares about how models look like? Most a them are photoshopped and anorexic. Men are waxed in such a way that they look like they never went through puberty. Clearly not an example to live by. Secondly, yes her boyfriend is an idiot for pulling that stunt instead of telling her that he found that unattractive. My fiance tells me if I wear something that is unflattering or if I should remember to do my eyebrows :). He is simply very tactful about it so I appreciate that he pays attention to me. What's important is that he lets me know and so do I when I think he should change / take care of something. It's all about communication.

You are extremely conceited, and you sound like a bitch. Go ahead and take care of YOUR OWN body however you want. It is absolutely NONE of your business what other people do with theirs, especially considering that it's pretty common where upper lip hair is extremely noticeable and hard to get rid of no matter what you try. I've heard of several people trying everything up to and sometimes including laser surgery and not being able to do anything about it.

We were discussing this at work the other day if it was socially unacceptable for guys to have hair everyone would be hairy. There is no way that guys would wax their hair much too painful for them. OP just tell your BF that you would wax your upper lip if he does it first. :)

Uh next time do it yourself. That's pretty gross for a girl to have upper lip hair. YDI

Newsflash! I lived through and enjoyed the 80's and it wasn't normal or socially acceptable for women to have a mustache then either.

If your mustache is bad enough for a GUY to notice, you should have taken care of it yourself before now! Or do you not own a mirror?

That's messed up. I would've ended up waking up punching him in the face. Lol.

I'm sorry maybe I'm just mushy but it's actually slightly sweet in a creepy dumb bf sorta way.. Maybe he didn't want to hurt your self -esteem. If he's been a loving bf so far cut him some slack :)

To all the people giving YDI because she 'has a moustache' (how would you know, maybe he's overreacting?): What if I told you It's freaking natural so let her decide for herself. When this would have been about her hair color or something, everyone would have said that it's her own choice, then why is it not your own choice of what to do with the little amount of fuz you have on your upper lip?

Leave him. If he won't love you as you are, he doesn't truly love you.
