Thank you for all your replies and I'm going to ruminate on them for a while. Obviously this topic touches some core issue and some very old pain.
And of course, I'm lazy as all get out, and hate to think of spending precious time on makeup and hair.
Plus, whenever I try I feel like I'm wearing a huge neon sign that says I'm trying too hard. He says you get over that...
My therapist told me on one of the other occasions that he found reason to discuss this with me that it isn't so much whether makeup makes you look better as it is that people think you're making an effort to fit in with the occasion.
I don't know. As I said, whether or not to conform seems to be a very central issue to me. I'm really going to have to consider it. Thank you for giving me more to factor into my considerations. :)
