The ONE TIME I don't wear makeup there's a hot guy sitting next to me. 374859028 previous flights and today of all days delta?!? 😑 time for both of us to accept me in all my natural glory. 💁🏾💁🏾

Attention everyone: P1 would like everyone to know that he/she has had sex. You go P1!
Also, OP: just make a random inane comment. See if it goes anywhere. Some fodder: flight delays, weather, inherent sadness of flying out on Sundays, etc.

LoL. PwC1 is providing great fun. I think if everyone stops talking he will soon start replying his own messages. And then again counter reply.

EY2 - I got the sarcasm, thanks. Point is, if OP is worried about not having makeup on when she finds herself sitting next to a hot guy on a plane, it implies she is not fully confident in her appearance without it, and without confidence it doesn't matter how you look. Makeup is overrated. Confidence is key.

P1... as a women, the whole point of makeup (at least for professional women) is to make it looks like we aren't wearing it. We're just that good, that you probably think we're wearing very little of it ;)

Right. Start the conversation out by bitching about something or talking about the sadness of flying on Sunday. Great advice. Go for humor OP.

D1... man here (if you couldn't tell from my asshole comments above). Prefer women who wear little to no makeup. Why? Because those women are actually naturally pretty, not just contoured and caked up and all that other bullshit women do that they think makes men like them more. I can't stand that shit when you see a woman and her face is a different fucking color than the rest of her body because she's got a 7 layer dip of god damn makeup on her face.

K1, I wonder if anyone knows when you're going to actually contribute something useful to this discussion?

So far, my contributions include: telling OP to have confidence, telling OP to use humor to start a discussion with the "hot guy" next to her (both great pieces of advice, by the way), and helping to tear down the asinine notion that men prefer women who wear makeup.
