Only on gourmetstylewellness.com can someone who has bettered themselves be ridiculed for it. Mind = blown.
So how many girlfriends have you had?
None. I don't think having girlfriends at 20 is living the life.
My success with girls has been pretty good though. Balding hasn't held me back at all in that aspect, this too considering that I don't frequent the bar/club scene much because I hate that sort of atmosphere.
Before hair loss, I couldn't even speak to girls. Now what other excuse do you have?
[QUOTE[All you are doing is overcompensating for your hair loss.[/QUOTE]
Really? A few follicles on my head isn't going to kill me. I know other balders who do perfectly fine in life. You can make balding as bad or as good as you want.
Everything you are doing has no affaect on women being interested in you.
Yeah because you're with me 24/7 :wacko:. Also not everything I do is centered around women. Jesus, some of you guys are too concerned about women. No matter you can't get woman, you need to change your mindset, don't cater your life towards women, cater your life to what you want to achieve. For me, achieving a Phd in my discipline is far more excitement/satisfying than getting a woman/devoting mylife getting women. FAR MORE.
I cant believe the bull**** in here...dont listen to them i am awesome there is WOMEN out there what will like you seriously there is scarredforlife is going for YOUNG women at 50 something and you wonder why he cant get any and slipy...couldnt tell you about him but seriously you WILL find someone you lost a few hairs THATS IT.
Thanks man, and like I said, I haven't had much problem with the female gender.
keep it up I AM AWESOME - lots of us are doing the same
don't take this section too seriously. many guys just come on here, take a dump and go back to life
Thanks man, good luck in your journey as well.
For me, I'm taking my post hair loss life as a journey, a journey in which I will always keep bettering myself.
this sounds arrogant, presumptive, and narcissitic. blah blah blah why arent the rest of you being like me. thats the way this read.
Lol, OK you keep on going on the track you are and come tell us in 5 years time how you've bettered yourself. So instead of bettering ourselves (Which we should be doing regardless of hair loss), what is your solution to the problem? Coming on here ranting about how your life is destroyed? Seriously, dude, I've probably had it worst than most people in regards to hair loss at a young age. I lost ~65% of my density in ONLY 4/5 months, got depressed about it for a bit, but then thought ''you know what? I can't let a few follicles on my head control my outlook on life''. Thank God I didn't stumble upon this section of the forum when I was first coming to terms with my hair loss; I'd still probably be fat, bald, socially awkward with a number of health diseases.
Agreed. Compound that with the fact that he is only a young kid (20?) with only minor crown thinning and the above statement only sounds worse.
It's not minor crown thinning, it's a lot of hair loss. Especially under natural light, it shines right through my hair and it looks like utter crap.
But no, I don't find going bald motivating. Just the opposite... the year before I lost my hair I was in the best shape of my life. Working out and finally putting on some muscle. My hair was almost to my shoulders and women were plentiful.
I thought you were married? Or did you find your wife after you started balding? That would be pretty ironic actually...
Some see compensating as just trying to be your best despite your flaws and others see it as a sign of insecurity to detract attention away from your flaws.
This is the problem some of you guys have. Fuk what society thinks, you better yourself for your own satisfaction, not for how people will perceive you.
Most bald guys look better with muscle so i dont get why you thought "whats the point"
This is true. I've recently started a bulk after my first cut. Am pretty scared that I might add fat more than muscle lol. Let's how it does.
What a load of nonsense. How does working on one's personality, getting rid of social anxiety, losing weight and living a healthy life "has no effect on women's interest"? I know it's a hair loss forum but what is it with people on here equating hair with attraction period?
This.
Nothing at all wrong with "compensating", as in trying to be your best despite your flaws IMO. Hair loss still gets me down every now and then but giving up and letting myself go still never seems like the more logical option. We don't have much choice but to work with what we have, as unfair as life may be sometimes.
Also this. You don't see many short men (As in really short <5'5'') cry about life, they get on with it. You don't see other men with physical imperfection cry nearly as much as the guys on here.
Slipy is right, you will have a hard time getting the ladies if you are balding at a young age unless you have a great head shape, countless rejections etc.
Again, my sole reason for improving myself wasn't just for the ladies. I will not allow women to dictate my life, I have other goals in life which take much more priority than getting with woman. You will have to face rejection MANY times with or without hair.
compensating is cute.
but you know the thing about compensating for baldness? it's a case where the effort that's being put in far exceeds the gain, you're still at a big disadvantage as far as the female aspect is concerned.
+1
Another guy here who probably bases his whole life around getting women. Getting woman shouldn't be the sole focus of one's life, it should merely be a compliment to a man's life.
