Feelings are hurt

This guy I’m talking to doesn’t like that I have acne

I’m on vacation and right before it started I got a breakout on my chin. I’ve been washing it twice a day with proactiv and it’s FINALLY starting to go down. But I made a comment about him thinking it makes me gross and he said “I’m gonna be honest yeah a little bit” and How it’s 2019 and there’s ways to cure it. Honey don’t you think I’m trying to? I’ve tried so many things and everything I’ve tried barely helps. Proactiv has kinda helped but it’s so expensive and I only got some for Christmas. And I brought up how many people suffer with cystic acne that doesn’t go away until they are put on actual pill medication. Other than this he’s a good person but it’s just like ok how does that make me gross?

Update: this is one of the things he said to me after I called him out

“If I had a lot of acne and I'm not saying that you have a lot, I'd think it makes me look gross so I'd try to fix it. And for the record I'm not asking you to fix it for me because I think you want it gone too”

So I’m not sure :/

And I’ll add that my acne used to be way worse. I have scars on my forehead cuz of it. It’s definitely gotten better and Ik it isn’t going to be around forever.
