If asked whether they would still love their partner if he or she lost all their hair, most people in happy relationships would say: ‘Of course!’
Imgur user Amanda probably thought that her boyfriend was just the same. That is, until she played a prank on him that went horribly, horribly wrong.
According to a series of text messages she posted on the site, Amanda had used a ‘bald head’ app to snap a selfie of edit it to make her look as if she had shaved off the hair from the top of her head.
Unhappy: Imgur user Amanda decided to play a prank on her boyfriend by using an app that makes her head appear bald
Quick reaction: It becomes apparent very quickly that her boyfriend doesn’t get the joke, as he even appears to threaten her with ending their relationship
A new look: Amanda shared two pictures of herself with a bald patch down the center of her head, leaving her poor boyfriend very upset
She had thought that he would know it was a joke, but instead she got an over-the-top reaction that she couldn’t help but later share.
‘NOOOOOO. WHAT THE F*** DID YOU DO?’ her boyfriend, listed as Sir Jaredeth in her phone, wrote.
‘Please don’t be real!’ he wrote several times before adding: ‘WHERE THE F*** IS YOUR HAIR?’
From there, the boyfriend just makes himself look worse and worse, telling his girlfriend in a markedly threatening manner that: ‘I don’t have a thing for women with short hair. Especially women who are bald.’
Keeping it going: He then expresses worry about her hair growing back at all
Another one: Amanda then shares another photo of a girl who is thought to be the ‘Jasmine’ who she claimed talked her into the decision
Amanda responded by sending yet another bald-headed picture and writing: ‘We’re doing breast cancer awareness at work today.’
‘I’m done,’ he says. ‘What if it doesn’t grow back. Why did you do this?’
She shares a photo of a friend left similarly hairless thanks to the app and explains that her friend Jasmine talked her into it, to which her boyfriend says he wants to ‘kill’ her and calls her a ‘bad influence.’
Amanda then takes a different route and starts prodding the overreacting manchild, saying things like ‘I want you to lick my bald head around in circles.’
He goes on to refer to the situation as a ‘nightmare’ or a ‘lucid dream’ and begs Amanda to tell him she’s joking.
Big trouble: After Amanda claims a friend talked her into the head shave, he says she is a ‘bad influence’
Taking it on: Amanda tries to joke around with her freaked out boyfriend, to no avail
After the incident, Amanda decided to share their exchange on Imgur, writing: ‘I had a balding app on my phone and decided to send a picture of myself using it to my boyfriend, assuming he’d probably know it was a joke. Well, turns out he didn’t, so I just went with it’
Sure enough, the boyfriend was torn to shreds by people in the comments, who referred to him as ‘shallow’ and recommended Amanda kick him to the curb.
‘DUMP HIM – my wife lost her hair during chemo,’ wrote one user. ‘I still love her no matter what. It’s only hair, a*****e.’
Amanda didn’t reveal whether or not the reaction led to her dumping him or not.
