I'm not saying I want to shave my head like Britney did but...

When things end with a guy I’m seeing, one of the first things I usually do is change my hair. If I’m moving on from a guy, I want to move on from the hair style or colour I had when I was with that guy.

You can’t really control the feelings you may still have for your Ex, but you can control how your hair looks (unless it’s humid, then your f-----). I think it’s having that sense of control that helps a person effectively move on, and refuse to return to the relationship. Ex’s always come back, usually when you have a new crush. Ex’s have a 6th sense that lets them know when you’re happy. Then they pop back in and see what emotional havoc they can cause.

I was seeing Jake and my hair was about medium length at the time. I’d seen the girls that he usually dated and each looked identical to the other; they were all fake-tanned, anorexicly skinny with long blonde hair. We were constantly on and off, and he was almost always the one who would want to be on again.
One time he wanted to get back together and he asked me if I was single. I said yes, and asked him if he was single, he said yes. Then I asked him about the blonde girl I had just seen him with the week before, he said; “Oh, Tammy? No, that’s nothing, I would consider myself single.” (please take note of the manipulation of words that he used, he was good at that) I asked him if Tammy would consider him single, and got the obvious answer of “No”.
Anyways, one day he asked me if I would grow my hair long for him. The problem with Jake asking me to do that was, growing my hair out would take around 6-8 months. He couldn’t even give me a guarantee that he would be around in 6-8 days, let alone months. He refused to give me a status on what exactly it was we were doing together, so I happily gave us a status of Over and cut all my hair off. You will hear more about Jake, because the stuff that he would say was priceless.

But if changing your hair doesn’t help you move on from a relationship, you can always try my old standby - Jose Cuervo and Madonna. I’m not saying they’ll cure you, but for the night you'll forget all about your Ex and in the morning you'll have such a headache you wont be able to think about anything anyway!
