Newlywed dumped by husband after being seen without Makeup

Well, not sure what to say about this. It is funny, although i do feel bad for the bride. At least he was honest.
In a way she deceived him by always wearing the makeup and false eyelashes. So it's understandable that he was unhappy when he saw what she really looked like. They went swimming a few days after being married and her makeup washed away.

I know women who never take their makeup off and even wear it to bed. "In case I die in my sleep", i was told by one.
She should be more honest and open with the next guy.

The newlywed couple was swimming at a beach in Sharjah when the 28-year-old wife’s makeup washed away, revealing artificial eyelashes and cosmetic surgeries she had undergone before the marriage, according to the newspaper. The husband, 34, reportedly said he could no longer recognize his wife and decided to end the marriage.

I wonder on what basis he married her in the first place?

There is an inherent sort of dishonesty in makeup.

Good point!

Hollow begets shallow.

Because she's worth it?

Was it really the make-up or lack thereof or was it because He was thinking this is 8"?

(---------------------------------)

I only ask because this is in the M.E. where their customs are varied than Mine. I'm thinking the guy couldn't get a Viagra™ connection and to "save face" He blamed Her like the male has done since the start. (see: "Lilith")

So, that sounds pretty shallow. How long had they been dating / engaged? 5 minutes? Conclusion, he married her for her looks and not for every other trait she has, like personality etc?

Anyways, he probably didn't "see" her until after the wedding anyways if they were both traditionalist and nationalist

"The Emirati national dress consists of garments and accessories such as the kandura or dishdosh (white or colored cloak) with kerkusha (string neck ornament) often worn with sandals and guthra (headscarf) with egal (black rope) for men, and abaya (black gown), shayla (head covering) and possibly burqa (head covering exposing only the eyes) or gishwa (black veil) and gafaaz (gloves) for women
"
She's better off without him in my opinion ....... but LOL at the groom .... really? hahaha

pics?

Not sure how long their engagement was, but I highly doubt she kept her make-up lacquered on the whole time only to have her "disguise" foiled by salinated water.

The hubby in this particular case is a douche. Period.

Maybe the go to porn he harbors didn't live up to reality. Porn can be VERY destructive to the mind and expectations. However, that's just speculation on my part.

Brass tax, grow the f# up. It's called make-up for a reason.

Unfortunately there are no pics, for privacy reasons. She is seeing a psychologist because she is so distraught, so i'm sure she didn't want her picture out there for the world to judge.

They were engaged for six months before marraige. She had cosmetic surgery before meeting him and had scars.

Article says she is 28 years old so i don't know why a young woman would need to get cosmetic surgery anyway, unless it was for medical reasons.

She said she planned to tell him about her scars but didn't get the chance.

Oh my hell... what a prick.

Makeup is there to make people look better. That's the point. If a person is surprised by this then the world must be a confusing place for them.

Exactly. Sure it can be overly used, but make-up is supposed to do just that...make-up for, or accentuate existing facial features.

It would seem they really weren't that intimate before tying the knot, but that doesn't excuse the pettiness of the groom.

Poor woman. What a crap relationship. I would say it had no foundation, but that was what was washed away.

Arranged of course...and all he could see was her eyes through the black veil anyway probably. I know it's been said that if the eyes are pretty? Than the rest is..uh..ISNT. Always go for the ones with the odd eyes...

Prejudiced statement I know...but this came from a co-worker...from Yemen...who was divorcing one wife and looking around for a 14-15 year old or so...to be his next. He currently has 3 wives and is 31 and a naturalized U.S. citizen, lives and works here and so do they....

The more I learn about religious and nationalistic traditions...the more Im flabbergasted.....

Not unheard of, and its not limited to the ME! American delta bravos are just as shallow sometimes. Years ago, a friend of mine was dumped by a boyfriend the first time he saw her without make-up after almost a year of dating him. She was already insecure about her looks & paranoid about ever having a hint of a bare face, so him dumping her definitely didn't help any. She said it was rather blunt & went something along the lines of "Oh my god, you're f$^*ing hideous without make-up! We're done..."
Her self-esteem was in the toilet for years afterward.

a reply to: Abysha

Oh, I too agree with you. But todays world is obsessed with looks...I think the only ones that MAY get it...are the blind. They havent a choice BUT to value someone on their hearts and how they respond and contribute to society.

We could all learn from that...a book by its cover? Doesnt mean its a good one...or bad...

It seems the majority of Men want that dishonesty. My wife nearly never wears makeup and I prefer her natural. My Brother-in law has never seen his wife without makeup and my son's wife spends hours in the bathroom coating her face before anyone sees her.
People have no idea now days it seems, what love is. They seem to think "taking care of yourself" on the outside means you love each other and that is the extent of it. I am missing some teeth and missing hair and gained much of it in my ears and nose...my lovely lady will love me no matter what happens to my outsides and I know this for sure and I feel the same as her wonderful special soul is what I love!

We don't now the context here, so JUDGING this guy is a bit premature, besides which, it's a completely different culture. The article mentioned "scaring" so who knows what that means? I really doubt this is just a matter of false eyelashes and foundation. We don't know, so maybe you can put down your ethnocentric knives and see if we can get better information.

How do you get married to someone without ever going swimming with them first?

How does this even happen? He never saw her between taking a shower and spending an hour putting on a face?


There's something wrong with both of these people.

She should have been honest with him before the marriage. She must have looked pretty bad with the scarring she had. I feel sympathy for her but in this case, i get why he ended it.
