The only thing in this world that would make my cry out of happiness is a 100 million $ jackpot.
..no but seriously, I would not cry. Sure being bald sucks, but it's really not that bad.Comment

Your harsh criticisms of the guy are just as valid as his assessment of women being attracted more so to the guy with an ocean of hair. By more so, I mean a hell of a lot more, like 95% of the time if not more. To give him sh*t because women aren't accepting of bald/balding men is total bullsh*t. You, me, him, everyone on this forum and everyone outside of it knows for a FACT that bald men are always given the short end of the stick. Put a full head of hair on him and he *will* be able to land a woman thats more attractive than what he can get now.
That isn't being pessimistic or negative, its just the sh*tty reality us baldies have to deal with.
If women were just attracted to a guy with a horseshoe on his head, NONE OF US would be on this forum.Comment

A few points.
(1) I didn't give him sh*t because women aren't accepting of balding men. I gave him sh*t because he's every bit as superficial as he's accusing them of being.
(2) If he were to go on a date with some nice woman, and say that hairloss bothered him because he was worried about ending up with "some ugly overweight woman", I would guess that 9 times out of 10 that statement would reflect more poorly on him than his hair loss. So yeah, I think I correctly identified his main problems.
(3) While I can't claim to be a big hit with the ladies, I do manage, and I can honestly say that my happiness in a relationship has never been correlated with my partner's physical attractiveness, and I haven't done any worse since my hair loss started becoming more noticeable. I've dated women who are more attractive than I am, and I've dated women who are less. In a mature relationship it doesn't really matter. That doesn't mean there aren't superficial people out there, and I can't claim to perfect in that regard myself, but if someone only wants to be with you because of what you look like, then there's a problem regardless of how much hair you have.
Now of course it does bother me that I'm going bald - I'm on this site, after all - but I also have some sense of perspective. The person who cares most about your hair loss is you. Period.Comment

Plus, thank you to all of those who understand. I knew a lot of us felt the same on this forum. That is why I posted how I feel.Comment

I will cry when a cure comes out, not happy tears, but tears of sorrow. When i think of how i have let it impact the quality of my life, feeling ashamed of my bald head. Even though i promised myself when i lost people close to me, that i would not let hairloss affect me, it is simply impossible.Comment

Brother, you care so much about your hair loss, because you think other people care so much too. They don't. They are too obsessed with themselves. Like most human beings. If you care that much about what other people think of you, my suggestion is to stop yourself from caring so much about what you think of yourself. It will actually make others care less too. However, the approach that I believe will lead to the most happiness (which is what we all want right?), it to simply not care what others think. In fact, don't even concern yourself with what they may think. Who cares? You? Why? You don't have to.
With all that said, I encourage you to fight your hair loss battle tooth and nail (without getting too crazy)! But have peace of mind in what you are doing and still lead a productive happy life!
Merry Christmas!
Hope you didn't get lost in the midst of all those philosophical BOMBS I was dropping!
We Are All One!!!!!!!!!!
