Just tell him it's part of who you are.

If he loves you then he'll understand soon enough.

If he says your being selfish for being you and not who he wants you to be then he doesnt deserve you! He is being selfish for not letting you be you! If you love him for who he is then he should love you for you are! It will work itself out just keep being u girl, the BEAUTIFUL you!;)

Exactly! When I told my fiance that I was growing natural dreads at first he was skeptical, he admires those he sees with them, but wasn't sure for me. I remember asking him if he thought he wouldn't be attracted to me anymore if I had them, but he said he was more concerned with how other people would judge me and react... I told him that I needed to do this for myself and that perhaps I could be an "eye opener" for close minded, uneducated peopled on the beauty of dreadlocks (soooo very many people out there are misinformed...so sad). After I started my journey and he has seen the "messy" beginning look, I ask him again, "are you still attracted to me?" and he said at first he was a little worried, but after actually seeing the process he likes how it looks.

Moral of the story: No matter what, love is love. If he is only loving you for looks, then he's not really loving YOU. In a true soulmate-ship, you only want the best for your partner and you will support them in what makes them happy even if it's not necessarily something you would choose.

Good luck to you

Maybe he'll learn to love them...or at least like them a little. lol AT least we're not fighting about it anymore. :-)
