Can't be seen without a full face of make-up after comment

I might be stating the obvious here, but has it occurred to you that she might just have been insanely jealous of you? Why else would she have put so much energy into slating you?

That's horrible and I can totally see why you'd feel uneasy around her...
She sounds very false, two-faced and untrustworthy, but I know it's easier said than done to just 'ignore her'.

The fact that you and your bf have been together for 2 years suggests he thinks pretty highly of you, so try to focus on that instead of her opinion

**** what she says, if you're happy with how you look then don't feel the need to wear full make up She sounds like a bitch anyway

I'm not sure about that.... I'm pretty sure she's never been into my boyfriend like that, she's been dating his best mate for a few years now and she had another long-term boyfriend before him. Besides, she apparently gets on with guys better than girls.
She literally didn't know me at all when she made those comments, she had briefly met me once and that was all. In terms of looks, she's one of those girls who has hundreds of likes on her facebook pictures and she's always getting told that she's beautiful etc., plus appears to have had a lot of guys interested in her, so otherwise I cannot see what she couldve been jealous of....

Well for one thing you clearly have a better personality! Also even if you're not as popular as her, doesn't mean to say you're not more attractive.

I know it's terribly insecure and that I shouldn't care what people say, but..

this is what a female friend of my boyfriend's said about me after finding out that he liked me and that we were going on a date:

'Omg, I cannot believe she's actually trying to date you, that's hilarious. You can NOT go there, she is really really ugly. You cannot possibly stoop so low.' She also said stuff like she'd assumed I'd have an ugly boyfriend already.

This was quite a while ago now, but I only found out about the comment more recently. I found out when my boyfriend gave me his old phone and I was deleting old messages off it, and came across this one.

I haven't told him I know because I know I was reading the messages and I shouldn't have done, so i'd rather just forget it.

Anyway, since then, she has 'liked' my facebook pictures and she's given me compliments on my hair. I saw her just a handful of times in the past 2 years, but recently we've started to see her and her boyfriend a little more.

To be honest, I don't want them to see me now without a face full of make up and my hair done, and nice clothes, because I feel insecure after her comments. I mean I'm no model, but I didn't think I was hideous. She doesn't have to think i'm attractive, but she was very nasty about me.

So yeah, every time I know we're going to see her or them both, I spend a lot of time carefully doing my make-up. They've never said anything mean to me, but they wouldn't to my face.

Anyway, my boyfriend has noticed and thinks it's silly, but I can't tell him why. She's obviously confident in her looks, because we recently went to eat dinner at their place, and I was done up and in a smart outfit, while she was sat in her pyjamas and had greasy hair.

How can I not care so much? I just feel like I have to be on standby ready all the time because they can sometimes just pop round at any moment. Am I just being too insecure? Thanks for any advice.
