The answer is nothing. Nothing happened in his brain.

I swear I could feel my blood pressure rising when I read those comments. There’s just so much to unpack: You’re my manager, why the hell do you care about me not smiling in my profile picture? Why do you think I, a grown woman, care about whether or not I look “cute” to you?

It reminds me of the time I chopped my hair off and dudes were coming out of the wood-work telling me how I “shouldn’t have cut it” and that I “look better with long hair”. I’m just sitting here like…who are you? who invited you? who asked you?

Also, I’ve yet to find a guy who has given me the “you should smile, sweetheart” line that has also given that same line to another man.
