She comes in today with these highlights of a dark blonde I guess you can say. She even said it was more than she wanted but over a text she said "she thinks she likes it." Anyway, I'm not a fan of it. And it was very clear with my reaction. It's not like she looks awful or anything but I just don't understand why in the world she wanted to change the colors in her hair when she knew I thought it was PERFECT.

So now she's upset at me that I didnt say I liked it. What in the world am I suppose to do? Lie say I like it and have her continue to do this when I really don't like it at all. Her hair was perfect and now, it's just different with the colors. It's obvious I'm not a fan of it.

I'm hoping everyone else doesn't lie to her too/ or genuinely think it looks good. She's such a great looking girl, she did not need to change a thing!

What would you do? I'm telling her it doesn't look bad but I love the way her hair is naturally. Is that all I can do. I have no idea how long these things last.

I don't get women. They want me to love the way they are but when they change something I need to love that change?

Just read the highlights and lowlights last three months. Not so bad. Just don't want to lie to her to have her get it again.
Do you love HER or her HAIR?

Your call Bro.

Wait till her hair turns gray. Then what?

^^^^This. It's her hair. This is not a battle worth fighting.

So you're overburdened by the need to be truthful and can't figure out how to act diplomatically? Like you said, ultimately what color her hair is is so unimportant. Just improve your skills at being diplomatic. If you ever find yourself coming to the conclusion that somehow you are just a very honest guy and can't behave otherwise without upsetting your girlfriend for minor issues like this, you are doing it wrong.

Okay. I don't care if she shaved her head completely. I don't care if she dyed it green. I don't care if she has taken to wearing a feather in it.

When a woman returns from her hairstylist and asks, "Well, what do you think?" You simply say, "You look great." Leave the honest critiques to her girlfriends, unless you like sleeping on the sofa.

FlyMIA...ask her what she did with that rock. When she says "what rock"...tell her the rock she combed her hair with! If that doesn't put a smile on her face nothing will!

I would dump her! Of course.

You deserve the absolute best and if a physical feature of somebody you are dating turns you off, move on to somebody better.

Nobody should have to date someone they are not attracted to!
