He Did Not Recognize His Sister-In-Law When He Saw Her Without Any Makeup On And Figured She Was A Stranger Who Broke Into Their House
A 33-year-old guy has spent the last 4 years married to his 32-year-old wife Kate, but before they tied the knot, they dated for an entire decade.
He knows Kate’s family quite well, especially her older sister named Emily. Kate and Emily are super close, and Emily comes to stay with them multiple times a month.
Emily also adores their kids and will take them to do fun things. They also do a lot all together, such as hiking or taking vacations.
He and Kate have never once asked Emily to step in to babysit their children since they hire a nanny to do that, and also, his mom pitches in. This is just something Emily enjoys doing.
“Now Emily is a lot into makeup,” he explained. “In fact, I have never seen her without heavy makeup.”
“Even when she stays over, she comes out from her room with a full face on and wears waterproof makeup to the swimming pool or to the beach. From what Kate told me, she has been like this since Emily was 13.”
This weekend, Emily was staying with them, and their daughter ended up sneaking right into Emily’s room and taking her makeup.
Their daughter then hid Emily’s makeup somewhere in the house, and this happened really early on in the day.
“When I woke up I bumped into Emily in the hallway while she was looking for her makeup and did not recognize her at all,” he said.

“She looked completely different from what I’m used to and looked like a middle-aged woman. I nearly called the police as I thought someone broke into our house, but Kate stopped me.”
“However, Emily already heard me saying “who the hell are you” and is aware I have not recognized her.”
He did say sorry to Emily, and he did let her know why he did not recognize her. He ended up mentioning to Emily that she just looks like a completely different person without her makeup on, so that’s why he couldn’t tell that it was her that morning.
When he said that, Emily and Kate called him a jerk. He honestly can’t see how that was mean of him when he was just telling the truth.
Since then, Emily and Kate kept on being upset with him. Meanwhile, Emily and Kate’s parents agree with him, so he’s curious if he’s really wrong.
Do you think it was rude of him to tell Emily to her face that he couldn’t recognize her without her makeup on?
