Is wearing no makeup a deal breaker?

It's one thing to have a general opinion on makeup or other small topics, and one's own natural preferences. That's part of being human. Sometimes we know and can exactly identify why we like or dislike something, other times we have no idea why we have a certain preference, we just do. Our preferences can even change over time, multiple times.

However, if you focus on it that much to be a deal breaker (either end of that spectrum) ...then it seems like a pass for me to associate with someone operating like that. There's so much more to life and people than topics like this, as it ultimately holds no real depth or meaning. There's so many base level "is ___ a deal breaker" topics and threads that this applies to. I feel you miss a lot of opportunities and experiences in life when you limit yourself that way.

Personally, I want someone who is their genuine and authentic self, no matter what that looks like to them, and I expect "what that looks like" to change over time as they continue to change. I also expect it to be exciting to find out. It seems we'll both be happier in this light, with a lot less to worry about. The more trivial things you clear out of the way, the more room for happiness and adventure.

Not everyone may feel this way, but I do, and that's what the thread is here for.
