It sucks, and not having control over it is frustrating and terrifying. Right now I have really thin hair, it doesn't show when it's dry, but when it's wet I can see a lot of scalp, and well, a lot of hairs fall daily. It's genetic, both of my parents have it. Nothing to do about it. I once mentioned ot my boyfriend that I might have to wear a wig eventually and he said he wouldn't like me to wear a wig, 'cause it'd be too fake according to him... but I'm sure he also wouldn't want me to walk around with a shiny, bald scalp.
I asked him again today if he'd mind if I wear a wig someday (since he's mentioned he'd like us to get married), and he went indifferent and cold. He said "whatever, as you wish" and was dismissive. I explained that it is important for me to know his opinion about it and he said he was sick of my concerns about alopecia, he said something like "it's stupid to worry about something that still doesn't happen, it's like worrying about dying, there is no point". But my hair is already falling. Anyway, he said he's sick of me always talking about it, and he wishes I'd shut up about the whole alopecia thing.
Should I break up with him? I understand it must be annoying, but I just want a bit of support, I told him it'd be much easier if instead of fighting with me he'd just be supportive am empathetic,but he doesn't seem to get it. He doesn't seem to get that I'd be terrified that he left me over such a superficial issue, but ah well... he usually lacks empathy towards anyone.
