'Friend' made a comment about my hair and I'm so fucking angry with her.

[LordOfTheThings]

I'm a year post chemo. My hair has grown back but it's nowhere near as thick as it was before I lost it but it's ok, I'm still here so I can live with it.

I keep it quite short (long pixie type cut), partly because it's still not grown as much as I would have liked and partly because it starts to look even thinner if I try to grow it longer.

Friend, and I use the term loosely as she's really a friend of a friend said 'I much preferred your hair before, why do you keep it so short now I'm not sure you suit it'. I, being a fucking mug, just kind of mumbled a stupid reply and walked off and I'm so cross with myself. I think I was so taken aback.

I did prefer my hair before. I also preferred having breasts before and not feeling constantly worried about cancer coming back either. Maybe I'm just super sensitive but I'm SO upset. I want to message her and tell her I think she was out of order but not sure if I'm just being super touchy?

ZOMBIE THREAD

Sensitive?

What a cow.

She's no friend. It was incredibly thoughtless & unkind. Has she genuinely no idea what chemo does to people or is she always devoid of tact & empathy? I'd send her what you said about your hair & boobs. I don't know if it would help, but I found Vitamin D & Cod Liver oil capsules did wonders when my hair fell out in clumps due to grief & stress.

@MrsHamlet why would you prefer your friend had hair? That’s so shallow. I have Alopecia universalis and it’s comments like yours that keep my self-confidence at rock bottom.

I'd message her and say maybe she should think before she opens he mouth in future, she is rude and insensitive and you hope she's never in the position where Someone is so insensitive to her.
You are not being over sensitive this woman is a C--T

I actually sent a post to OP asking how she was... after a few weeks of hearing nothing from her. I was checking she was okay.

Sometimes I read things on here and I’m just speechless. This is one of them. What an absolute bitch. Even when it was spelled out, she was still a butch. Never, ever give this woman a minute more of your time.

How is a thread from AUGUST 2021 a zombie thread?

Is it not possible that people might be interested about the OP and enquire that she is ok as @QueenBee52 has kindly done?

Perhaps HQ could clarify what a zombie thread constitutes so those that are so upset about them might be put at rest and calm down a bit.🙄
