Today, I cut my bangs. When I asked my boyfriend if he liked it he said, "It's like I'm dating a new girl, this way I won't get bored with you." FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, after getting an expensive haircut, I showed it to my boyfriend. Instead of saying, "Wow, those bangs look great on you" he said, "Wow, you look really good when you don't show your forehead." FML
Today, I had my hair done for the first time in 3 years. I loved it. My boyfriend told me I look like his ex. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because he, "just can't keep dating a girl with so many split ends." FML
Today, my girlfriend dumped me because I was "changing too much." My big change was a haircut. FML
Today, I was excited about showing off my new haircut. All my friends thought it looked really good and it made me look older. What did my boyfriend think? He said I look like a little girl and he was afraid to kiss me in public because he didn't want someone to think he was a pedophile. FML
Today, my bartender noticed my new haircut before my live-in boyfriend did. FML
Today, I got the haircut I've been wanting for ages. I then called my girlfriend of two years and asked what she would do if I got a haircut. She told me she would dump me and then invited me to her house for dinner. I'm scared to go. FML
Today, I got a new haircut and style. Feeling pretty. My husband got home and is not even a little interested. FML
Today, my boyfriend dumped me because I got a haircut without asking for his permission first. FML
Today, my girlfriend decided to get a new haircut. Now, she hates the haircut and blames me for, in her words, "turning me into something I'm not." FML

I'm sure that was a compliment, just a very clumsy one.

I don't see how this is a bad thing, if anything this will help him to avoid cheating because he feels you're someone new!

Upside; you're not boring him! Always find the silver lining OP. Nah, he's a jerk.

positive quality constructive criticism negative quality you have all three sides covered, so what's next in this paradox of a comment you've created?

That's like having your boyfriend cheat on you, and being positive about it because the other chick didn't have an STD.

^We don't know that...haha

OP just buy a new vibrator and tell him the same thing.

I think that is fair enough! I mean - it was hopefully just a joke but if not then it sounds like he isn't with you just for personality. It sounds like he was just making a bad joke to me though.

2, you make it sound as if it is genuinely difficult not to cheat on someone.
Mideoyeo 12
I apologize if it came out sounding that way, but usually when a partner gets bored they tend to make the wrong decisions. Usually the wrong decision is to cheat.

OP should shave her head and see how he feels
ositoakaluis 16
41 who wins in that situation?
buckeyed 20
locks of love? depends on what the two of them are into!

Oh yeah, I love a girl who has less hair on their head than me. So sexy.

There are some people who are into that, 58, or at least have enough depth to look beyond it.

59 - Different people find different things attractive. I'm not sure that preferring longer hair necessarily makes somebody shallow.

73, there's nothing wrong with preferences, but when someone's feelings toward another change due to appearance it's undeniable that they're a bit shallow. I'm not trying to seem self-righteous or anything but OP's boyfriend seems like he doesn't actually care about her to me.
Soloman212 28
I don't get it. The way I see it OP's boyfriend seems to care a lot about her, and I'm getting the feeling that he didn't like the new look, and that it being "different" was the best compliment he could come up with, and was just staying positive because it isn't OP's physical appearance that he cares most about.

It's certainly not a negative comment at least
buckeyed 20
ive received worse backhanded compliments from guys before. i agree, OP sounds like he was being playful, and overlooked what he could be implying.

Show more skin more often.
dakatabg 31
Right
Mossears133 15
Agreed. From my experience, guys don't think too deeply about how jokes/teasing could be interpreted.
JustJumped 22
That makes it sound like he's just using you until he gets bored
buckeyed 20
if that were true, he probably wouldnt have said this to her
inthedopeshow 17
I actually agree with 4. If OP's boyfriend needs new hairstyles to keep him interested, it doesn't really seem he cares too deeply for her personality. The fact that OP would even post this also shows that she's suspicious of this as well
smavaddat12 12
Sadly... For most men, personality is after looks
mackdeezy 22
I hope he's joking and isn't this shallow. But mehhh, could be worse.
smavaddat12 12
Yeah, he could be mentally insane and start calling OP a different name
Jea2096 11
I wouldn't stick around much longer. Before he gets bored of the "new you"
shaww 28
That's cute.
OMJizzzle 2
How is that cute?

Uhh... here's hoping he's just kidding.

Dump him before does. At some point you probably will have done all the hairstyles in the book.

Wow, what an asshole
rg350dx 29
I'm not sure if you're surprised at the boyfriend's comment or you're an astonished proctologist.
flockz 20
it really depends where you put the emphasis. she could be an amazed proctologist.
