Would you leave your significant other over hair?

Wow! Actually I think your hairdo looks very nice on you and I think your ex-boyfriend has issues with his own insecurity. His attitude kind of reminds me of the "wanna be macho" guy who buys a large, dominant, scary looking dog breed in order to "feel or appear tough" among his "peers". Similarly, it seems your ex wanted you to "look" a certain way to stroke his own ego as well as to be "recognized" for having (or being seen with) a woman having a "certain look". Maybe he figured it would earn him some twisted ego-boost or prestige from other guys or something.

I wouldn't. What's more important to me is what is inside the person's heart and mind rather than outside. That doesn't mean to say that I wouldn't tell them about what I like or didn't like in them. But I definitely wouldn't break up over hair! Infact, I've got wavy hair and my husband loves it that way. But I usually straighten it because it's difficult to manage. I know he likes it wavy and thinks I'm crazy to go strightening what God has blessed me with. But that's it....he tells me and it's done. I tell him it's difficult to manage my hair and when the kids are a little older, I'll consider keeping it the way he likes. He dresses the way he likes, keeps his hair the way he likes (which I think is a just his way of saving money)...but what the heck...I tell him it would look better another way and I'm done. I don't even think it's worth arguing about.

You know that boy's simple. He can't help his stupidity anymore. He passed that point a long time ago. Your hair should not be the center of his world like that. That's a mental illness.

That is so stupid. What a dummy. Well you are far better off without the guy if he only loved you for a hairdo. I actually have a friend that had the same situation. But that was back in highschool, she cut her hair and he broke up with her because he liked girls with long hair....when you expect people to be incredibly stupid about dating and love.

No, I wouldn't leave someone because of something like that. It's not my hair to live with. I'm also of the mind that no one has the right to tell another adult what they can and can't do (apart from established laws, of course). A couple of months after my son was born I had my hair cut from mid-back to just about my chin. The hair dresser actually asked "Is your husband ok with this?" My response was "It's none of his d@mn business what I do with my hair." And he agreed.

Each time I want to cut my long hair my fiance will say why mess up your hair . He likes it long . Sometimes, if I trim it he wont even notice . Right now my hair is down too my bum , and wanna get it to my shoulders , and he thinks I always mess with a good thing . He wouldnt fight with me or anything , and he has liked it short before , but didnt like the cut when it was to my ears . I would leave him if I didnt like his hair . I mean well he is bald kinda , and I like it short almost buzzed , because when he grows it too long it looks funny . I think from the pic that your hair looks nice , and I have no idea why he said that . we all need a change sometime . You think it is for the best he is gone?

No, because no matter what, I will love that man that I have fallen in love with, and believe me, I have finally fallen in love, and I have fallen hard.

I think we do all have the right to feel good abt ourself. Even if that implicates cutting the hair ... He should of been glad that your feeling better with yourself ...thats my opinion...

i wouldnt leave my partner if he decided to change his hair or any appearance, i love him no matter what, even if i got my hair cut off my partner wouldnt leave me. but now you and your ex bf arent together then he doesnt have any right to make a comment about your hair, if he does, tell him to keep the comment to himself.

No because that is riduculous. I know alot of men like long hair on women. Even my husband likes my long hair. But there are times when I just have to get it all cut off. And he doesnt like it but he gets use to it.LOL And if he doesnt oh well.LOL All I can see its a good thing your not with this other person.

I don't that it is reasonable to leave your significant other just because of hair. It's not the hair that you loved but the person. So it's not really a valid reason to break someone. And if you really love your significant other, you wouldn't mind whatever he/she looks when he/she cuts his/her hair. As long as your truly love each other, physical appearance doesn't matter.

WOw..!! Breaking up just because of that change in your appearence..!! Man that is rediculous. I can never do that. I would even never break up with my hubby if got his full face disfigured for ever. Its not the appearnece that matter. I am not saying all these just for sake of it I really mean it. GIving some sarcastic comments is ok but BREAKING UP is just so not done!! It means your boyfriend never loved you. Loving someone means loving the inner person in you, loving the real you.

Nope. I like my hair short and Hubby likes it long. I cut it short b/c I'm the one who has to take care of it. As I told Hubby, if he wants long hair he can grow his own out LOL **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

No, hair or other physical features is not the deciding factor in continuing my relationship with my husband. I personally know of some guys who are really into their partner's hair. Maybe its one of those male makeups that we won't ever understand.

No I wouldn't. My wife used to have longer hair until she let a certain individual talk her into letting them color it. It didn't turn out as expected and they kept trying different colors and then stripping in between. Needless to say, all of that resulted in some massive damage to her hair and the next thing I saw was when she appeared and her hair was like a quarter inch long! We are still together and her hair has come back as this was a few years ago, but she keeps it a lot shorter than she used to. She no longer tries any coloring experiments, and whenever she wants anything done she goes to a professional. That certain individual doesn't come around much anymore, which is a good thing, as they are right near the top of my "must eliminate someday" list...:)

Nope. I wouldn't leave someone over their changing their appearance. We all need to update ourselves once in a while or become dated. Hair styles go in and out....clothes styles go in and out...changing with the times means you are moving forward and not stuck in a rut. We all have to do what is right for us. I wouldn't say anything but if asked for an opinion that is a different ballgame.

I have really long hair and my husband almost loses his mind when I tell him I am thinking of cutting it short. But if I did, he wouldn't leave me! He wouldn't like it but it is my hair. If he did something crazy or that I didn't like to his hair, I certainly wouldn't leave him. I might not like it and I would let it be known but that's it. I never understood men who just can't take hair changes in women. If *I* want my hair shorter, I should be able to do it without knowing my husband will freak. Your hair looks awesome in the pic and it's all about what makes us feel good about ourselves, not what other people want. I do admit though, I have not cut my hair because my husband really loves it long and I do too but sometimes I am so sick of it. If I decide I am really really to do it, he'll have to deal. I have a girlfriend who cut her hair from shoulder blade lentgth into a really cute pixie and her boyfriend left her that day saying he couldn't stand short haired girls! Sheesh, superficial much?

that is a pretty shallow thing if you really loved somebody, but if he was just my crush and he did something drastic to his hair then yes i would completely be over him thats when i know that what im feeling is just physical, that actually happened to me, i thought i loved the guy and was seriously pondering on going to the next level then he cut his hair, and now i hate him, atleast i didnt hurt him by moving forward. and by realizing that what i feel for him is not love at all, take and look at this in a positive way.

Of course not! in other words, the love your boyfriend has for you is just shallow. It's not true. Maybe he just made it as an excuse for breaking up. A person is beautiful no matter what length is her hair.

I wouldn't leave my significant other just because of his appearance. Besides, I'm married now, so in sickness and in health does apply to me. However, even if I weren't married, I wouldn't fuss over appearance as long as the person's healthy. If my man becomes too fat, then I might encourage him to exercise or something, but if isn't not health-related, I wouldn't say anything.
