I've been thinking since I read the first chapter whether Draco was completely wrong to demand from Harry to use glamors. It is obvious that Draco still loves Harry. As it is obvious that Draco is not a completely superficial person. If Harry's face looks as horrible as described and easy glamors are available, I would have been asking for them as well. I do not think it would have meant less love.
I see Harry's point of view that he needs to act as a live evidence of how truly horrible Dark Arts can be. It is very noble of him. And it is important for the society. Still Harry and Draco could have thought about a compromise, e.g., Harry does not wear glamors in public as a statement against Dark Arts, but uses glamors at home not to make Draco flinch. Relationships are about compromises after all.
