153: because IDGAF what my boyfriend likes

I heard it when I dyed my hair.

I heard it when I cut my hair short.

I heard it when I pierced my septum.

I heard it (again) when I cut my hair short (again).

What does your boyfriend think?

It’s the grown-up’s What did your mom say? and it’s insulting and infuriating—but not because of when it happens:

I didn’t hear it when I got a second job.

I didn’t hear it when I bought a new car.

I didn’t hear it when I changed career paths.

It’s insulting and infuriating because they never ask me if I like it.

Was it worth dying your hair the color you’ve wanted since high school?

Do you like the newest hole you put in your nose?

How’s the short hair treating ya? It hasn’t been that short since you were nine.

I don’t give a fuck what my boyfriend thinks.

If he doesn’t like it, he can leave.
Or, better yet—if he doesn’t like, I can leave.

PS: My boyfriend likes it.
PPS: So do I.
