When I was back in Massachusetts my ex wouldn't let me cut my hair. Said they liked running their fingers through it so I shouldn't. Not that they ever did that because I hated it so much I always kept it tied back in a bun or tail.
Well, today I cut it off. Cut that fucking tail clean off. Rid myself of anything they might have run their fingers through, because honestly, fuck them. Abusive piece of shit. I'm free now. I'm hopeful this was the last barrier to real recovery. I might grow it out again. I might keep it short for a time. But whatever I do, it will be MY decision, not the machinations of a manipulative monster.
