DEEDEE72 View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 16 Nov, 2010 03:47 PM Ladies, Suppose your husband, fiance or boyfriend preferred your hair long. Suppose your friends, family and co workers preferred it short. As a matter of fact you get compliments wherever you go with short hair. You personally do not care whether it is long or short. How would you wear your hair? Post Reply

rainbowian View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 16 Nov, 2010 04:48 PM This is an interesting question. It seems that quite often women are pressured by their friends/family to cut their hair short when they hit 40. Looking forward to the answers you get. Post Reply

View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 16 Nov, 2010 07:14 PM Me personally I like a woman with medium length hair, that's medium for a woman which would be like shoulder length or maybe a little longer. I think it's more of if you can pull the look off instead of how long your hair is but I was taught that women are to have long hair and men are to have short hair but to be honest there's no exact length for either. It's not like God said men can only have their hair shaved to an inch long or something and that women have to have hair down their back. LOL. Post Reply

i_live_in_canada View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 17 Nov, 2010 10:18 AM There is so much more to focus on in a relationship then how you wear your hair. Any one that is so narrow minded to have one look that they find attractive is going to miss out on a lot of great choices. We all have preferences when it comes to the exterior but you can not expect to change some one. If you want to be happy you must love your partner for who they are, not what you hope they will become. Since I have been with my boyfriend for over 5 years I have had many different looks. He has never said do this or you look better like that. A couple of years back I had grown my hair down to my waist. My hair grows super fast so it didn't take long to get there. At first i enjoyed it but after a while it was too much. Very heavy and always in my way. Any ways I got sick of it and chopped it all off in to a short bob. It actually looked a lot better in my opinion. I wanted to surprise him so I had a hoody on and then stood up and took the hood down. I didn't know if he would be sad I had cut it off or not. Now he is not the most romantic so his complements are worded a bit different. He said finely you cut that s**** off. Wow and all that time I thought he had liked my long hair. So I asked him why he had not said he liked it shorter as I might have cut it. He said " It's your hair". I don't always like my boyfriends hair or clothing choices. The same goes with him about my clothing choices. Yes some times I will wear some thing I know he likes but not always. Are we any less attracted to each other? No of course not. Clothing and hair does not make the person. Sure it's nice to look your best but people put way too much worry into the exterior. When you love some one from the inside out the out side becomes much less important. Which is good as we all will change over time. Waist lines get bigger, skin get wrinkled, hair fades and thins. If all you are attracted to is the out side then you really have nothing in the end. Let the exterior catch your attention but let the inside beauty be what you truly love. Post Reply

It's pretty much give and take and compromise and standing frim and giving in...but most important -- it is about not hurting the other's feelings and Loving them for who They Are. Would you respect your boyfriend if he became a Wimp and did everything you asked? Celebrate the Differences! Rejoice in your Similarities and Accept them for whom they are. (but do bug them if they Smoke or do Dip or...) Post Reply
View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 18 Nov, 2010 01:51 PM I would wear my hair short, honestly. Long hair gets in the way, and despite what I hear people say about hair and modesty, I think longer hair is more immodest. If nothing else, it takes way more time and effort, and there are much more important things to spend time on. I have spent a lot of time and energy worrying about my hair, but in the grand scheme of things it just doesn't matter. My only concern is if your man had a very strong opinion about it like it was more important than it really is. Always remember what your hair really is and don't let it consume you. Post Reply
rainbowian View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 19 Nov, 2010 07:56 AM I'm bothered by this statement: "My only concern is if your man had a very strong opinion about it like it was more important than it really is." It seems like you're disregarding his opinion on the topic. How would you feel if he disregarded something you thought was important? Post Reply
DontHitThatMark View Profile History	LONG OR SHORT Posted : 19 Nov, 2010 09:56 AM I think she's just talking about unhealthy obsessions there. Like if someone's husband forced/coerced his wife to keep her hair a certain way all the time. I do think that a husband/wife should take each other's likes/dislikes into major consideration, but it's probably surprising how often giving each other freedom makes you both happier/more in love and ends up giving you what you both want. It's all about being self-sacrificing, just be sure you find some that is self-sacrificing as well! It's kind of a model of God's love for us. His love is perfect, and He gives us everything, but He doesn't want us to do things for Him out of some degree of fear or to try to earn His favor/pay Him back. He wants us to do things for Him freely, out of love. It isn't worth much otherwise. That's the kind of love spouses should have for each other. Well...that's the kind of love everyone should have for everyone...but it's easier with spouses, lol. :peace::peace: Post Reply
