Do your glasses define you?

If you take yours off (if you wear them) do you

Look the same?

I know if I wear sunnies I still look like me, but I know some that wear glasses all the time, when they take them off they are so different. Are you one of them?

I ask because I pick my new glasses up soon.

You know that pose a woman can do, I hope I can pull that off.

I went out with a woman for 18 months and she would never let me see her wearing her glasses, not once, she wore contacts most of time. I pleaded with her saying I love women in glasses, so I could see her wear them just once but she never let me see her wearing them.

This is heartbreaking. Oh City, thank you for being brave enough to share such a deep story, it takes a real man.

I could not believe how different I looked when I first started wearing glasses. Now people don't recognize me without them as I look younger which they don't believe. Also if I leave them off I can't see

Worn Glasses Since I was a child, in my 20s I was a young fat bald guy with glasses. Now I'm just an old fat bald guy with glasses. So for me nothing has changed but I am comfortable with who I'am.

Try to stay active through outdoor pursuits for which I wear lenses, simply cos glasses are not always practical.

I rather those liked me for who I am have met true friends through the scene - who do just that.

Just a discussion point as a side thread, why do we associate intelligence with wearing glasses. Is it something that is ingrained into out psychology? With or without glasses we are the same person.

I think it's probably historical, glasses were associated with someone being a book reader.

As in “Someone must be nearsighted because they read a lot"

When I was younger I hated being the fat kid with glasses so with contact lenses and then laser treatment I was just the fat adult, which I preferred.

It also meant I could see where I was washing in the shower and that dangerous activities like walking in the rain or coming into a kitchen with two saucepans boiling were no longer off limits

I look really different in mine. With glasses on I'm invisible, like Clark Kent. Without glasses the Super Nell is revealed and possess the power of flight and super strength.

It's actually really weird how people respond to me depending on whether I'm wearing glasses or not. One bloke at uni was talking to me in a bar one night when a friend called me over to her. Just as I was about to go he said "wait! You're Nell? Geeky little Nell?!" The tosser hadn't even recognised me

I've discovered online prescription glasses and I love it. I have 4 pairs of normal glasses and one pair of sunglasses with another on their way.

All very different, all very bold so I look different in them all.

I thought this would be me when they said I needed them. I always take ages to choose sunglasses that suit my face. I ended up choosing the first pair I tried on

. I tried on some others after but the first pair I loved.

I hated wearing them as a child and it was only when I grew up and realised that squinting to see wasn’t a good look. Now I wear them pretty much all the time.

I tried to get minimalistic frames so I didn’t look that different when wearing them or not.

I also plumped for prescription oakleys so that I can see when going out. My eyes are sensitive to bright light.
