awkward situation

[g.i joey]

so idk if you guys remember

 

[davesmith420]

I don't think she meant it like "Wow you're balding." She meant it as an actual question "Why don't you grow your hair out again?" You have to remember that most "normal" non-balding people won't really consider someone balding until they have reached like Norwood 4 status. And if you ended up sleeping with her/hooked up/whatever she obviously finds you attractive so you're in the clear my man.

I believe she was honest and straight and completely oblivious to your balding

 

[g.i joey]

hope you guys are right, i responded kinda bluntly in that case "i dont really give a fk about how long hair anymore, im not that into it anymore". i brought her back to my place, we hooked up did stuff, but did not get laid, which really adds to why i really wanna keep seeing this girl. Usually once i have a girl in my room its a done deal. Thanks guys, this just gives me moremotivation to keep popping that propecia.

Yeah man I think you're reading into what she said WAAAYYYY too much. I think if she would have said something like "Why don't you grow your hair out again, is it because you're balding?" then I would be a little worried. But like I said before, since you guys hooked up she OBVIOUSLY finds you attractive and she doesn't view your hair loss (if she even notices it) as a deal breaker so you're in a good place. Best of luck.

Who cares? stop being a pussy and enjoy the tail.


I'm coming to Ottawa on the 21st for my surgery. if you'd like I'll show you what it's like when a man takes control of a women. Free of charge :laugh:

^^ I bet her box would rather shrivel up and die than have this guy anywhere near it

 

[jaycarleton]

My gf said the same, and largely it is due to two possible factors. One, she doesn't consider your degree of hair loss to be enough to warrant a close cut, as many people consider anything up to and including a Norwood 3 "with hair". Two, and more likely IMO is simply that even with hair loss you either have a high quality of existing hair, or a head shaped such that she thinks you'd look better with long hair regardless. I don't think it's likely a shot against you for the reasons others have stated. TLDR you're doing fine man.

Lol shookwun why do I feel like the only woman you "take control of" are obese?

A man should take control of a grammar first.

 

[kmm179]

I have never had a girl say anything about my hair, but about a month ago I cut my hair pretty short and my gay friend said something like " So you going for the older look?" I was like no Im going for the convenient to style and dry. and he said something like you look way older with your hair that short. Hes black though so Im guessing a norwood 2 to him might look like alot of hairloss because he has a straight hairline?

Not a chance.

However you realy need to stop giving a **** about what people think. I understand hair loss makes you anxious, but it seems like you're constantly seeking validation, and acceptance.


Put it this way, you're balding and still getting tail... it's a win situation. If she doesn't like you (physically), then their is literally nothing you can say to change her mind otherwise. rid yourself of the idea behind thinking you need to say the right things.

I hit the comments head on and move on. At a party some girls where telling my friend that he had amazing hair. They looked at me pretty much like an oh sh:: moment that they maybe offended me. I just said damn, if I had your hair I'd grow it to my a$$. Trust me everyone knows your thinning just like if you was overweight or thin or a muscle mutant. You have to own it with confidence. Yeah it sucks thinning but what can you do?
I would of told the girl my hair is to thin and it looked like crap just like the time I shaved my head and I looked like an ex con.

 

[kmm179]

Fred did you date this girl before your hair transplant or afterwards?

 

[Paulina Roy]

first post

Hi all i just want to introduce myself. But before i do i want to make sure you all can see this post.

 

[Norwood One]

Fred hit the nail right on the head.

Do NOT tell them about your weakness. None of that Hollywood "be open and tell them everything" bull**** keeps a woman. If they see your weakness, they will attack it when things go sour.

 

[g.i joey]

norwood and fred i completely agree, hence why i took the hit and moved on asap, it didnt change the vibe we were getting with each other at all, now that i think aout it i may have been overanalyzing but it still kind of stuck with me.

 

[PinwTyropites]

Well my friend not everyone is a Norwood spotter like us (male pattern baldness fighters) . My girlfriend says I shouldn't be on finasteride cause I Have perfect hair. He also says my bro isn't balding who's nw3 buzzcut hahaha.

 

[Notcoolanymore]

It's also a weapon they will use in future arguments. The less they know about your weaknesses, and that weakness in particular, the better off you'll be.

The will also use it to embarrass you if things don't work out.
