Yuri.Truth be told, he preferred her hair longer. But that was an age-old tug of war between men and women that men invariably lost once a relationship congealed. Yuri might not be the sharpest pencil in the box when it came to romantic relationships, but he wasn’t obtuse enough to venture into that mine field.
Oh my gosh! I personally think women use their hair as a vehicle to end a relationship that they've grown weary of.
"I know. I'll cut my hair. Then he'll dump me. 'Oops, look what I did.'" Always the same.
Gemma and I have an agreement. There will be NO hair cutting! NO piercings. And NO tattoos!
Other than the piercing of my heart.

Actually, its more like "phew I snagged him. Now I can get rid of this massive, hot amount of hair and be able to be cool comfortable, and not spend >30 min a day doing my hair." It's the equivalent of giving up shaving regularly for guys after they get a girl.
Drats girl! Now you've gone and given me cause to pause. I'm going to have a late stage meeting with Gemma and show her this post.
Greentea, you have to admit that that's a little... irresponsible. Because if you then catch him in bed with a longhaired beauty, the first thing you cannot scream is "How can you do this to me, why are you in bed with this, this longhaired sl-t?"
A woman has a right to do whatever she wants with her hair. But a spouse has a right to marry what he is attracted to and has a right to expect certain things not to change that are of the spouse's control. So, the cards and scissors should go on the table before marriage. Same for cigarettes. I have never dated a woman who smokes. Not a chance.
You are willing to sweat it out to catch a man. But not to keep him?
My brothers and I are always clean shaven. The women in our lives - sisters, nieces, Aunts, etc. etc. do not tolerate hugs and kisses full of prickly sticks. No way Jose! Gemma loves that!
