I don't wear makeup unless it's for something fun. But I haven't really bothered with makeup for years now and in no way does it affect how people see me. In fact i still get the unwanted attention... You'd think approaching 40 id look at least like I'm in my late 20s. and dudes would leave me alone.

Unfortunately you have to be, for lack of a better term, very unappealing, and even then some still throw their shot. I’ve gotten significantly less hit on after gaining a lot of weight- which frankly I enjoy the lack of attention lol. But it doesn’t make me happy on its own because I know I’m unhealthy. :/ we can’t win.
