The long and short about The Hairstyle Change

After clocking many, many days of MC following her break up, Office Bimbo was finally back for work this morning.

I don’t know if this applies to all females, but for the ones I encountered, they all go for a change of hairstyle following a heartbreak. Sushi Eating Friend had a very short and manly crop after she found out about the ‘CCAs’ of her cheating boyfriend back in uni. Similarly, Office Bimbo adopted a shorter do too. For the sake of illustration, here’s some before and after pics of Office Bimbo:

I think it’s all very troublesome. Besides having your heart-broken, you have to burn your pockets at some expensive hair salon. I find that totally illogical.


“Sian, you just don’t get it do you?” sighed Sushi Eating Friend when I asked her about it back in our uni days. “A change of hairstyle represents a change of perspectives, and in a way, liberation from the shackles of yesterday.”

“But I don’t cut my hair when I get dumped by my crushes!” I protested feebly. “When I need cheering up, there’s always faithful little KFC waiting for me!”

“Aha, and that’s the reason why you have a paunch and will remain unloved for the rest of your pathetic existence.”


For what I don’t understand from Sushi Eating Friend’s words of wisdom, I think Office Bimbo would, because she betrayed absolutely no signs of feeling heart broken, and even came back smiling following an extended lunch-cum-shopping trip.

Or at least that was what I thought. On my way to pass her a file just now, I stopped a few steps from her cubicle after hearing sobs from her direction.

I think I will wait for a while more before passing her the file.

With Love,
