Is it normal that nobody i know has ever seen my face

Is it normal that neither one of my wives, nor my two children has seen me without a beard. There may be no one alive today who has.
I grew my beard out at 16 and it has remained on my face ever since. Since I work on the water in the sun and weather, it has probably saved my face; no wrinkles, etc., but even I wonder what I look like these days.

      Flattery will get you nowhere?
      But we'd better stop meeting like this, I think my girl is getting wise to us.

        If she's lucky, I'll smack her ass too, mister.

    Thegypsysailor! I knew it had to be you when I read the post. I love being right, thank you :)

    Is it like a giant pirate sized beard or one that you could grow back in a few days? If it's the latter why don't you just have a look? Maybe you'll find that chin tatoo you had forgotten about and was the actual reason you grew that beard to begin with.

      Not too long and unkempt; just a few inches and somewhat trimmed.
      I'd need someone to teach me how to shave; I've never done it.

        "Damn it cadet, take 2 steps closer to the razor next time you shave!!!"

    When I read your title I thought you were some super villain who we only ever to get to see the back of his chair.

    Imagine my relief.

        Come on now, everybody needs AB's & ordinaries to do the grunt work. You've got your woman there but she's obviously your chief mate.

        I bet your overtime pay involves beer & weed.

        At least you're (presumably) on a fiberglass boat, who the fuck wants to listen to needleguns all day?

          I would have preferred a metal boat, but this one is a Clorox bottle; a Pearson, if that means anything to you.
          At this age, I'd rather sail, snorkel and adventure ashore than work on the boat all the time.
          Overtime pay? I'm supposed to get paid? Gee, I'd better call Larry Ellison; I must be doing something WRONG!

    Lol, the title had me assuming you were a loner with only internet friends.

    Back to topic: Normal. I reckon there's plenty of guys who have lifelong face hair.

    Lucky you. It makes you have an attribute of mystery.

    I'm 66. All family except my 2 kids are dead, as are most people who knew me before I grew the beard. Any others (classmates), probably wouldn't even remember me.

    What about your mom or dad or both when you were born... or did you not have a face until you grew a beard at 16... so your face must've formed underneath your beard ....am I making sense here?

      No, not at all. Unfortunately, it has gone white, but I always wanted to see if blondes have more fun. And the answer is; oops, gotta go.

    Is it because you kill people who see you face?

      No, it's because I'm the ancient mariner and most of my high school peers have died off.
