I want to see if other men share my experiences with women regarding hair loss.
I had thick curly hair in high school and college than noticed thinning around 24.
I thought I looked great and this helped my confidence tremendously. I wasn't ****y (ok ,maybe a little) and never had trouble meeting attractive women.
But, Ive noticed a very steady decline in my attraction abilities as Ive become older and lost alot of my hair. I've tried not to let it bother me but I would be dishonest with myself if I say It hasn't.
Here's why:
I'm constantly reminded of it by others, ecspecially women. They could be females who are either family, current girlfriends or complete strangers.
A sampling of the comments I've heard.
"You would be cute if you weren't balding".
"Oh, he's going bald, forget him".
"I don't date bald guys."
"You're old". ( A gorgeous woman I was dating for a couple months who was only 4 years younger than me)
A woman came on hard to me a month ago at a local pub (just to let you know I had my ever present baseball hat on). She than took my hat off , looked at me disapprovingly and than said to her girlfriends, and stated "Let's go". She wasnt even attractive!!
There are so many times Ive heard this lately I'm starting to feel as I'm a leper or an insignificant nobody. My balding head is saying this is stupid, shallow and ridiculous to feel this way, but my heart is hurtin anyway and these experiences have shattered my self confidence.
So I guess what I'm saying is , to say women don't care if you're balding is complete bs. ( I haven't anyone of them make positive comments)
I thinks all of us are concerned about this and this is truly why we obssess about hair loss.
Has anyone else experienced these type of situations with women,
(I would bet the bank on it)
Your stories, thoughts?
