Consider this thread an expose. Giving guys knowledge so they can protect themselves. By the way, I don't want to be "loved" for my face.

Chip on the shoulder? Sounds more like a quarry!
SO went through some totally unexpected facial surgery and partial reconstruction. Now it is just a big scar and discolored surrounding skin. The first months were not easy - neither for him nor me. My heart goes out to her! He is not the same man and she learned to love a stranger and live with him.
Be my guest to be there when the nightmares set in, the screams, the reliving, the doubts about himself and those who stayed when he lashes out against everyone and everything. The one who is superficial is you.
