A female United States age 36-40, *ib1 writes:

I really, really don't want my boyfriend to grow his hair long. I don't think I can explain how awful it looks. lol Even his old facebook photos have comments by his friends that his hair looked terrible.

I didn't say much when he told me he had plans to grow out his hair but think he understood my silence.

Does this make me a bad girlfriend? Oh, god! Do I really have to support the long hair?

I am a man and I like women who have such a very long hair and they don't want me to have long hair, because their evidence of having the power by having their much longer than mine turns me on, then for me a woman who doesn't want me to have long hair is perfect, but every man don't think this way.

Topazapella agony auntYeah, there's nothing wrong with that. I ask my boyfriend regularly to let his hair grow a bit longer but he completely ignores me and goes to the barber to get it chopped within about three centimetres of his head. I still hope he'll let it grow a bit longer because I just find it more attractive that way...you never know, your boyfriend might listen...

Nope, you're not. Sometimes men need to be kicked a bit (gently, mind you). My girlfriend suggest I change mu hair some time back. I actually took her word for it and changed it and loads of people have said I look better for it. Sometimes men get it into their heads to do something that just isn't right. If you don't want him to grow his hair, then do tell him. He may still grow it long. But he might do what I did and listen.

xanthic agony auntNo, you're not a bad girlfriend. If you really dislike how he looks with long hair, say so. It's your opinion, just as it's his choice whether or not he accepts it.

person12345 agony auntNah, most women try to change something about their guy. It's not wrong of you to want him to keep it short. It is wrong to try to MAKE him keep it short. So long as you don't try to demand he keep it short for you, you're perfectly entitled to the way you feel. Like I said, just don't make a thing of it.

Gabrielle Stoker agony auntGirlfriends and wives have tried to edit their man's appearance since the first cave-man picked up a club and bonked the woman he liked over the head with it. You're merely following a grand, ancient tradition. It does not make you a bad girlfriend.
