Beard

My husband has grown a beard
He has never had a beard since the day I met him 6 years ago
I really dislike it and struggle kissing him etc as I don't like it
I have expressed my view but he says he likes it and everyone compliments him on how it suits him
What can I do

My BF didn't have a beard when we met but has developed one over the last few months.
I think he looks sexy as hell with it 😍

Love kissing it/ stroking it and all the other bits that go with it 😬

Totally his choice as to what he does with his own facial hair just as it's totally your choice whether you kiss him or not

Enjoy!

@JonnyBee....A beard is a woman who is with a man to hide him having the gay. Think also Sophie and Prince Edward.

It's irrelevant that others like a beard. OP doesn't. Her DP knows this but choses yo grow one now- so OP is entitled to therefore not want to kiss him / find him less attractive physically. Doesn't mean she doesn't love him. Although the feeling of her opinion being disregarded could impact on the relationship (rightly or wrongly ).

Never did like beards either. Don't like a bunch of hair in my mouth, scraped skin from stubble, bits of food stuck in them. Yuk.

Maybe his beard phase will pass on its own.You don't have to kiss him if you don't like the beard.

My twatty ex husband couldn’t grow a beard as he was the least hairy man I have ever met so now I am making the most of men with beards 😂

I do understand OP, my dh is lucky enough to be able to grow a beard in a matter of days, he looks very sexy with it, I always fancy him, however, I really dont like kissing stubble, my skin is sensitive and it hurts, so we compromise, sometimes he has a beard, some days he dosent (he has noticed how much luckier he is when without Grin)

one rule that is ALWAYS followed is grooming, grooming, grooming! I will NOT put up with a dirty straggly beard - If he wants one he has to look after it.

Just stop "kissing him etc" and hope he changes his mind about having a beard.

TheWashingMachine · 27/03/2019 18:55

I loathe beards, my DH has one, I never go near him anymore. The end.

“Just as a side note, beards feel amazing in certain places.... if ya know what I’m sayin’! ;)”

I really don’t. Sounds painful AF. I like my men to be clean shaven for this reason & I don’t understand women who don’t?

If the beard is of sufficient length and has been kept in good condition then it can actually feel good during receiving oral. But he has to have actually looked after and groomed his beard, used conditioner on it, trimmed stray bits, combed beard oil through it, etc. Then it will feel soft and more like the hair on his head.

It's the ones that are just stubbly crap which scratch like hell IME.

I like having a beard not for a hipster look but just because it suits me and it keeps my face warm. When I first had it DW said shave it or there will be no kissing. Did that and still no kissing lol. When I grew it back and she said no kissing I laughed and said it made no difference. Then I had to shave for work so that put a stop to it lol.
Ironically some of her celebrity crushes have beards and they'd be allowed to keep them lol.
Seriously though if he's only keeping it because of compliments it won't last. Let him know what he's missing, tease him a bit ie flirting and it shouldn't last to long.
