    I asked my ex gf once if I should shave, her reply was that it didn’t matter to her.

    Several weeks later while I was shaving my beard, I had one of those sporadic moments where I thought to myself…why not? So I kept shaving. Shaved my head, chest etc, everything. By the time I was done I was more aerodynamic than a fighter jet.

    My gf refused to talk to me after that for two weeks.

        I was tempted to, but I was concerned people would think I’m a chemo patient so I left them alone.

      Just checking: did she not talk to you because you were too slippery, too scratchy, you turned out to have looked better with your netherbeard, or because you left hair all over the bathroom?

        I think it was several things, but the reason she gave me was that I looked too young. ( I was in my mid-40’s and only a few years younger than her.)

        I suspect that her bi-polar issues played into that though as well. She was a very difficult person to keep happy.
