So I have always had extremely long hair. Just yesterday it reached the floor when it was down. It was thick and healthy and well cared for. Recently my mother was diagnosed with cancer and it’s been a horrible time for all of us. She recently started her chemo treatments and no one is sure what’ll happen, but we all hope she’ll be okay. She began losing all her hair from the treatments, it wasn’t nearly as long as mine, but she still loved it and had really healthy hair. So I started talking with my boyfriend about donating it and we agreed I should. So yesterday I shaved my head completely bald even with a razor and everything. I had it all nicely separated and donateable and I went to a pretty highly regarded charity (I did ask if they could make one for my mother and they agreed). Afterwards I went about my day. Then I went back home and me and soon after my boyfriend came home, he was shocked to find that I was bald and thought when I was donating it I’d only cut off a little bit. I thought this was weird since I mentioned buzzing everything off since my mother was bald as well. He said he never thought I’d do it. But we changed the subject quickly and ate dinner before going to bed. This morning I woke up when he was getting up for work and he told me he couldn’t be with a bald girl. I kindly reminded him it would grow back to which he replied that it would take too long. So he broke up with me and left my apartment. Leaving me alone, hairless, and scared.
TL;DR: I donated all of my super long hair and my boyfriend broke up with me because he didn’t want to be with a bald girl
Edit: I’m feeling a lot better now. The only thing I’m sorry about now is that people keep giving awards to a throwaway account that I entered random letters into as the password
Edit 2: Guys this is a throwaway, stop giving me all these awards lol. I do really appreciate all the kind messages though lol

Why YSK: This will help people be aware of the risks while shoveling snow, and therefore help prevent injury and even death during the winter season.
It's so that they'll end up in a cast.
> Our sources tell us ... the man broke into DeRozan's home on Nov. 19 and made his way upstairs into a play area where at least one of DeMar's kids was hanging out.
> We're told 31-year-old DeRozan -- who's 6'6", 220 pounds -- heard the commotion and raced to the area to see what was going on, coming "face-to-face" with the intruder in the process.
> Our sources say DeRozan then "chased the man out of his house."
> Law enforcement sources tell us the man fled the area -- before returning to DeRozan's gated community a short time later.
> When the alleged intruder attempted to get back in to the gated community, security stopped him and called police.
> According to our sources, the suspect told cops DeRozan's home was not his intended target -- he was trying to get to Kylie Jenner's home but made a mistake.
My brother refuses to drive and relies on our 75 year old grandma to drive through a very traffic congested 2 lane road to a military base to get him to and from work.
It’s awful for her. She gets such bad anxiety and begs him to get a license so she doesn’t have to do it. But if she doesn’t give him a ride, he can’t go to work. No coworkers live near us and Uber is to expensive to use regularly plus I’m not exactly sure how Uber works with getting on base.
Anyway, a huge annoyance added on to this is that he gets 10 days of PTO. He refuses to use it until the end of the year then he takes 2 straight weeks off of work to sit around and drink.
My grandma begs him to just use his PTO once or twice so she can have a day to sleep in and not deal with traffic. She specifically asked for Black Friday off and her birthday off this year to which he declined.
When I heard that, I was pissed. He can’t give our 75 year old grandma 2 fuckin days of her choice from his 10 days of PTO?? When he wouldn’t even have a job if it wasn’t for her.
So I made plans for us on a random week day a few weeks ago. I told my brother that the plans were non refundable, grandma absolutely can not take him or pick him up from work that day. He was pissed and kept saying this was really messing up his plans to use his PTO all at once.
Christmas rolls around, I give him a call to see if he liked his gift, chat, etc. He brings up how he’s still really pissed I took a day of PTO from him so now he can’t have 2 full weeks off and this is the first year he’s never had 2 full weeks off.
I told him he’s lucky I only chose one day to insist she have plans with me and next year he better be prepared to take off or find a way to work on her birthday because she’s not doing it.
My mom is now involved and thinks I need to mind my business and shouldn’t have forced a PTO day on him. She said driving him to work gives her a purpose and she needs to feel needed.
