Ok, so I've been on match.com for a while now more for curiousity than actual dateing cause I'm too poor and stuborn(read "old fashioned") to pay for a dateing service. and I've noticed a very disturnbing trend. So in most online personal ads (Match.com, eharmony yahoopersonals etc) there is a space for turnoffs and turn ons and the vast majority of people that are listed as compatable mates for me in the turnoffs is one word...yeah "long hair." Virtually no elidgible ladies like long hair on their guys.

Ok fine normaly this may not apear to be an issue for guys, I, however, have a beautiful head of dark brown shoulder-length hair. which i take great pleasure in kepping very neat tiddy and clean. I love my hair and plan on keeping it for quite some time. Now, I'm single...and trying to find a female companion...and long hair. Are we getting the problem with this picture? Enter the real kicker.

So in the profiles ladies say they don't like long hair. Switch to everyday life. Just about every female I know, hang out with, have been introduced too (I'm an actor and artist so this tends to be a lot of females of varying age and assets) tells me that they LOVE my hair and would cause me physical bodily harm should I every change it drasticly. furthermore they tell me how they whish that their current significant others had hair like mine and so on and so forth. This is the general response that I tend to keep in mind when talking to females attempting to convince that it would be in their best interest too... spend more time with me(heh)...

Now I've recently been advised by my styleist (you heard me), that if I'm trying to find a love intrest my chances would incress greatly if I were to cut my hair, not a lot, but to a much more middle of the road length. now for clarification I'm not the kind of guy to just up and change his lifestyle to match his perspective mates ideals, nor would I expect or ask them to, nor would I try to change who I am in order to attract females. i'm just not that kind of guy. This multipule mixed signals thing is begining to drive me bonkers.

In closeing I'd like to ask the opinions of all you people out in cyber-space to help a brother out and enlighten a poor longhaired boi out...

Also over the next few days I'll be helping the first half of rommies move into the new elmwood place(1034) so feel free to pop by and say Hi!
