You look tired

I am so sick of people saying this to me. Yesterday was actually a new one “you look terrible, are you full of a cold” I was really well!

Nearly 40 and do look a bit better with makeup on but I don’t love wearing it.

I don’t say to anyone you look ill or tired, I tend to keep my mouth shut.

Do people say this to you?

They wouldn't dare 😀

Seriously though, only very close friends and family would say that to me and it would be because they are concerned. If I saw a colleague who looked tired I'd never say something to their face. That is just rude.

People allays tell me when I am not wearing makeup. So I just say, 'nope not tired, this is just my face without makeup'.

Why should people comment? I'd never tell someone they look ill.

I’ve had this before. I reply with ‘this is just my face’
