What should i do about my girlfriend's hair problem?

10 Comments

I have had a small yet (I guess) quite uncommon dilemma for quite a while now.

Myself and my GF live together and have been in a great relationship for over three years now.

Even though I am still young (23) I take the relationship very serious, and so does she. Also, we have both voiced our intention of making this work and staying together for the long-haul, even though we both do not directly share any interest or plans for getting married and having kids.

However, I have always felt a bit bad about her face. Even though her body and general facial structure is absolutely stunning, my girlfriend has a pretty visible problem regarding facial hair.

As far as I know, if women do grow facial hair it is mostly dark and centered under the nose much like a mustache. However, the facial hair of my GF is on her chin and very light. Even though it is not that visible in the dark, during daylight I feel that it really stands out.

Before me and my GF got together one of my best friends (without being aware of my feelings for her) called her the 'bearded lady' which back then did not strike me, but nowadays I often worry that this is how people percieve her.

My question is, should I do anything about this, and if so how should I go about it?

Do nothing, as long as you love her the way she is it's fine 50
Talk to her about it and see if she finds it a problem 71

    It seems odd to me the idea of being with someone three years and not having talked about things like this. But that's another issue. While you should, of course, accept her for how she is, you don't want her to be made fun of. I think you may need to broach this delicately.

      Well I do think that it's something that is really kind of trivial when you look at the importance compared to other aspects of the relationship. I personally notice it (during the day with the right position of back-light) but I do not consider it a deal-breaker at all.

      Like you said, I do think other people take notice and I think it would be such a huge improvement to the way she looks while it would require so little effort.

      I just think it's a really delicate and ego-affecting topic to bring up.

    Either point it out tactfully, or get over yourself.

    It will only bother her for you to mention it if she enjoys the facial hair.

    Ask her nicely to pluck it out.

    Ouch.. you poor guy. I got in a real fight once when i asked my ex to shave or wax her arms. Like, seriously, that monkey stuff is gross. And if I can shave my entire body as a guy, I don't see any problem for her to take care of it.

    pff.. women, go figure.

      I totally agree, as a guy I would not mind it if someone who I am close to would give me advice on how to basically increase my sex-appeal. Women however seem to have much more complex( and honestly, quite silly) issues with this.
