People look very different with glasses on. Not necessarily better or worse but different. I've found over the years that if people are used to me one way they aren't desperately comfortable with me the other way. Its not about you being ugly or weird , its about other people not liking the change to yoru face which is the major part we use to identify with people. They feel uncomfortable with the change and translate this to your appearance.
These days I try and make sure that everyone sees me both ways on a reasonably regular basis to avoid the problem.
They're probably just used to seeing you with your glasses.
