It sounds like a silly waste of money by her

BUT, OP...

You admit you weren't listening to what she was saying, playing playstation instead. I wouldn't blame her for being annoyed by that.
And when you did tell her your opinion of her hairstyle, you hardly did it with much tact.
You didn't have to lie about it, but it only takes a modicum of tact to be much more diplomatic in letting her know you don't really like it.
Whatever happened to "It's...interesting..." ??

If you're really a man you should have your man card withdrawn and all other male privileges suspended indefinitely for writing that sh1te.

I agree, say its lovely and then ride her from behind until her hair grows back and you can look her in the face. She might be a pig anyhow then just keep riding her from behind

I wish I could thank this more than once.

Elaborate.

I don't see what's wrong with dealing with things like two adults.
First of all, €70 isn't that expensive for a woman's haircut these days, from what I know.

Second, she obviously thought it was nice and didn't get it cut like that just to piss him off. Now he doesn't have to say he liked it, but if he cared about her (and from they way he ignored her and talks about her I don't think he does) it should have been automatic for him to be at least a little diplomatic about it.
I assume you would have thought it was fine if she f**ked him out of it for ignoring her when she tried to talk to him.

Or maybe he should have clubbed her, dragged her by the hair (if there was enough left to grab) and thrown her out the door, it that's what a man should do.

It is expensive when you get one side of your head shaved that a barber could do for a tenner.

The reason she went off on one is that he didn't fall over her when she walked in the door & started complimenting her new 'haircut'.
She knows it looks like shyte. He knows it looks like shyte. She knows that he knows it looks like shyte so she's trying to throw attention off it by making him out to be insensitive.

If that's the way things are between them then it doesn't sound like a very healthy relationship. Lots of passive-aggressive behaviour just in the original post.

I know if my girlfriend got a haircut she didn't like she's tell them in the salon and make them at least do some damage limitations.

If she liked it then she'd hope I'd like it too, but if I didn't I wouldn't lie but I'd try to sugarcoat things a bit.

Never ever ever tell the truth, alway always lie to women, they cannot handle the truth no matter how important it might be to you to tell the truth.

No mater what it is they are wearing or thinking about wearing, it can be the most ridiculous outrageous outfit ever in the history of stupid clothing, you have to say you like it and that its fine. Life will be so much easier and you will be the best in the world for being a supportive and loving boyfriend/husband/partner.

You will learn.

You sir, are a wise man. Pussywhipped, but wise......

I actually do. But like everyone you get preoccuppied. I've seen women ignore their partners watching tennis or corrie she's done it too. Don't say you've never done it. Its pretty run of the mill these days. Something has your attention and the an issue/situation that you as person A, deems to be less important or of no immediate urgency you will throw a half-assed answer out to deal with it. Everyone has done it whether the admit it or not

Nah. You're reading too much into this. You think a little bit like a girl.

Really what happened is that she walked in the door, he copped the blade one & didn't know what to make of it. She knows she fcuked up her hair because on the way home she has had time to think about how it's going to grow out...not going to be pretty. So by thinking of the crap haircut she has had time to stew, which means she's in the mood to pick a row because she's frustrated by the bad haircut.
The rest he couldn't really plan for. I imagine he was like a rabbit in the headlights of a car & didn't know which way to turn.

I can't say I've done it too often, but in fairness I do know where you're coming from, we've all had moments like that.
I think your best bet is to sleep on it, and I'm sure tomorrow you'll both think "ah feck it, it was only a haircut, there's more important things in life" and things'll be grand between you.
Sorry if I read more into your posts than was there, it's easy to do some times when you're just reading text.

Yeh, too right. Because men are simple, shallow creatures, with low emotional intelligence and a very narrow range of emotions. And anyone who doesn't possess these characteristics is very clearly NOT male. :rolleyes:

Nice to see that this kind of attitude is alive and well. I thought it died out in the 60s.

By the way, you forgot to also call him gay.

I like this, I'd love to know how

.

Anyway, I think what happened was that they both caught each other at a bad moment and things escalated from there. Happens to the best of us sometimes. I'm sure tomorrow everything'll be grand between them.

No. She'll probably wake up tomorrow & realise that she can't style her hair like the hairdresser does & come to the conclusion that she got a crap haircut. Because lets face it, if it looked like shyte just after she got it done then it can only get worse.
She gonna be bitchin' like a bitches do...but worse.

That's what she said when I came in the door 20 minutes ago. She thought I was being a pr1ck (okay maybe i was) but she didn't like it and just wanted me to correct her and tell her it was nice for piece of mind. All's good now. I even got to see Cowboys and Aliens which is grand because she didn't want to see it anyway.

All's good in the hood.
NOW LETS JUST HOPE SHE NEVER COMES ACROSS THIS THREAD. :cool:

Wibbles19 · 01-09-2011 11:59PM

op, dump at a rate of knots, seriously

xsiborg · 02-09-2011 12:01AM

every time i see that haircut, im reminded of this partucular character:

Tank Girl

when i first saw it recently i thought "poor girl must have been bottled over the head and stitched up"...

Kanoe · 02-09-2011 12:04AM

it's a nice haircut, I'd like to get it done but the amount of teenagers wearing it spoils it for me now

just tell her it's nice ffs.

Anyway, I want to know was I being unreasonable.
She came in the door sh1ting on about what she heard in the hairdressers from her mate who does her hair. I was chilling in the sitting room playing some Just Cause 2 chilling after work. So she strolls in stands in front of the TV this conversation ensued:

Her: What you think?
Me: It's grand yeah.
Her: You didn't even look.

I look up and pause when I see it.

Her: Well, HONESTLY what do you think?
Me: What happened?
Her: What you mean what happened?
Me: Your hair, what happened?
Her: You f**kin assh0le. Cost me €70.
Me: €70. You serious. I've a razor there I could have shaved your head for free.

Well needless to say she lost it. She got one of those stupid hairstyles where they shave one side of the head and fluff the rest of it and put it over the shaved side. Bear in mind the rent is due today aswel.
Was I TOO honest or was I right to tell her the truth about what I thought.

Hmmmm...
I'd say the magic's gone.

Yeah..look on the positive OP..You can close your eyes and run your hand through her stubbley bit...pretend like your in the Army and hopped in beside your bunk mate for a game of hide the weasel.

Your bitch be trippin' YO!

Azureus · 02-09-2011 12:28PM

Pssh, you didnt like it, she didnt like it...tempers go kerazy.
I got my hair cut short awhile back and asked the bf what he thought. He told me I looked like a 12 year old emo schoolboy-which I did. Luckily, i had already accepted the fact that it was sh!t so we laughed. Just buy her a nice hat-job done :P
She just needed the day to accept her crap haircut and cowboys and aliens fixes everything. Domestic bliss restored :L

foxyboxer · 02-09-2011 01:43PM

€70 for a haircut??? :eek:

Jeez, I'm glad I'm a baldy!

I think your missus actually hates her new hair cut (she's a woman , she will never admit that to you) , and so she was going to blow a fuse anyway , so no matter what answer you where going to give it would be the wrong one ................................................. enjoy the dog house ...plenty of me-time
