You probably are one of the most level headed people on this forum and your insight is spot on. If you are an outsider, you just don't get treated like the norm. But once you are happy being the outsider and no longer care what society thinks, you will be in a much better position to be successful in whatever you do.
Yeah for sure, I can relate. By rocking a certain haircut, having my facial hair trimmed a certain way, working out and dieting, wearing tight clothes.. I seem to fit into some stereotype/label that works for me with women and makes them perceive me and react to me better. It seems that if I try to change just 1 or 2 things I start having problems again lol.
I always say to do a stubble. When I see bald men grow a large beard I know they do it because of insecurity. It's a disgusting look honestly.
I always found a heavy stubble/short beard to be the most effective but recently I got it trimmed shorter on the sides and let it grow long on the chin and then had it tapered towards the middle in a pointy shape and that worked even better with my facial shape. Got compliments from women and my girl loves it tbh
Obviously. That statement is true for every single person, world heavyweight champion or not.
The question is ill posed in my opinion. It might be a myth that self confidence or liking oneself is needed for others to like you. But it's definitely a myth that self confidence comes before people like you. In my opinion, people start to like you and then you become confident not the other way round. That's because confidence is a belief in one's own abilities in a particular area. When I was young I had very low self confidence because I had been bullied as a youngster. The few adult years I had with hair and with all remnants of the bullies gone, people were nice to me and my self confidence grew. Then my hair loss started and I learned that a man's worth is almost entirely due to his hair, and that is what has led to posts like the ones above. The only way out is for me to become an outlier i.e. a bald guy who is not a loser, or to have some kind of hair restoration so I am not suffering with the effects of baldness. There is no other way to 'build' self confidence because all manner of imagination exercises and affirmations will be disproved by the evidence coming from one's everyday life.
These guys are never going to learn the most obvious. It's what you say that is going to make you or break you.
and yet you will never wear a system and if i remember correctly you also refused to try finasteride (its too late for that now though)
It really isn't what you say or what you do but how you look. The post there had good intentions but in reality it is only the very special people who can be completely hated and say "**** them all; I am who I am". Many need some positive sentiment. An example is somebody like Novak Djokovic, considered one of the mentally toughest in the sporting world.
Fair enough. You seem to know what works for you and doesn't. I was a full head and decent looking but I failed because of low self esteem and didn't have confidence to engage in conversation so the women would lose interest fast. So don't think having hair is going to guarantee you success but I will agree with you it will help you in some circumstances when the women is attracted to a guy who has hair. True, you have to work harder than the full head but you still have a chance if you can engage and are interesting without projecting to the person you know she is going to leave you eventually for a full head. I lost out to plenty of balding men. The last girl who I lost out too ended dating a balding guy and marrying him. So If I believed in myself, I would have had a better chance. But I can't argue with you because you have been on the opposite side so you know better but I still don't think you would do so much better if you had hair. I would get a hair system and see what happens. If you are more successful than come back and let me know.
