ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) — Today's 98.3 TRY Social Dilemma came from Gerry and it's about haircuts. Here's his email: Get the latest, news, weather, sports and community events delivered right to your inbox! Hi Jaime. I'm having a bit of a problem. I have always loved my wife’s long hair, so when she decided to cut it all off without telling me, I was shocked. She came home from getting it cut and asked me if I liked it and I lied and told her I did. But I don’t. I actually hate it and think it makes her look less attractive. I know I'm acting differently towards her, and she keeps asking me if I'm mad about something, and I keep saying no. But I know eventually I'm going to have to say something. How can I tell her now that I preferred her hair long and that I don’t like her new look? Hope you can help me out. Thanks.~ Gerry 5/5/2023: Just a couple pop-up showers Well, I'm a believer that looks are far from everything. I think Gerry should hold off and give his wife's new haircut...
