“Expressed preferences about appearance”

Boyfriend frequently comments on and presses down my hair, making me feel unaccepted

What I wish I knew
"He would respect my choices and not voice preferences"
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly and avoid expressing preferences about appearance"
