Search Results: confidence is important in a girl

we get bombarded with axe commercials saying hair is everything, there are a lot of pretty boy types that spend almost as much time on their hair as women now but I want to know if it really matters, I mean I understand if its unkept and looks dirty etc, but my reason for asking is I'm a 19 year old who about a year ago develped a scalp condition where my hair thinned, top sides everywhere looked bad, I shaved it to the skin, not really any other options, I pull it off okay, I'm not jacked or a model but face and head shape work etc. and after an initial panic over the loss I used to it and didn't care. I shave my head I stand out so what? but after reading countless posts on the internet about guys who lost hair young saying you can forget about attractive women the same age now (keep in mind what they said not I) saying they used to get all the girls now get none, that really kills my confidence, I've never had a serious girlfriend or anything close to it really (I lived in a small town with very few options), and marriage young was a big goal of mine, and I admit that looks factor in, I have decent standards-we need to find a person attractive before we can open the door to something more serious I understand women think the same as well and can respect that. But it seems hard to believe to me that just because I don't have hair uptop that girls will usually write me off (as far as a date anyway) So young ladies, is hair that important that it kills a guy's attractiveness if he has none? Have you ever thought a guy with a shaved head was attractive (please don't use celebirty examples) and do you think that with no hair at this age it will make dating or attacting girls much more difficult? Or are those guys who wrote on other forums about how no hair killed their chances just sad people who want to complain about crap on the internet and blame everything on some cosmetic 'flaw'?

Im Mexican/American. My parents and family are all fair skinned, and so am i. But in an effort to darken my skin a bit, i got sick and extremely sensitive to sunlight.

Now i have burned/damaged skin cells, they appear on my face, neck, arms and back. And they seem to be fading away (albeit very very slowly) and it's made me very very sad and self conscious.

I don't go out anymore, i dont seek relationships, i look away from people, and im terribly shy now.
I've been to dermatologists and they say it'll go away with time and prescribed me some weird kind of cream. Its working but its way too slow.

So im wondering if i should wear makeup to cover it until it heals. I have some very important events to go to soon, and i don't want to go because pictures are unavoidable and mandatory (a wedding and a few birthday parties) i look terrible in pictures and i hate my appearance.

Please help guys and girls.

Out of all the questions I've asked, this one is most important. I don't talk to girls, but that is only because I have a lot of self confidence issues. I have confidence issues about my body, as I think my body is horrible. That interferes with my social confidence and that could explain why I am 17 but never had a girlfriend :'( So I'm just going to come right out and ask it. I am creative and have a good sense of humor and (apparently) a cute face. So is my body the reason, or is it something else. And could you give me some advice down below. thank you

I know it is difficult to be honest but think about it this way. If you tell me a white lie then I won't know that my body could be the issue and I won't workout because I won't think it is and that will keep preventing me from getting a girlfriend. If you think my body is the problem, feel free to tell me, I've gotten mixed responses about my body before this too :/ Please be nice though, I have a lot of self confidence issues about my body. But at the same time be honest. If enough people say it is my body I will start seriously working out. If not I'll just start exercising to be healthy but not as intensely. So is it my body, or no?

Also, could you give me some tips for getting a girlfriend. that would be great.

Thank you, I know you guys will respect this question and answer it with thought :)

We were almost starting a relationship and she suddenly stops talking to me. Our mutual friend told me she's in love with me but the question remains: why did she stop talking? Because I've never found the answear, this is what I did: As she was the one who decided when we stopped talking, as she rejected (at the first two days) my attempts to talk wit her again, then she must be the one who will decide when we will talk again. This isn't a revenge, I just don't want her to think I'm already hers. Now it's been a week since our last conversation (I went to see her in an important sports event that she won) and I noticed she is always looking at me, answearing to questions I ask but I don't ask her and laughing even when I'm not funny: she still likes me. But this thing of "suddenly stop talking" has happened before. I have never talked to her about it because I didn't want to make her feel unconfortable (or possibly mad with me). I just want her to know that she can't be that selfish and leave me alone without a word... it hurts. I hate these games and I feel guilty, but I miss her a lot and I'm not sure she will come to me. I feel like she wants to, but she is afraid. I don't know if I should go to her... she would probably take it badly because it would look like I was playing with her feelings... and it isn't true. This may look like playing with her feelings, but I just want her to know that I have feelings too. I've always give her confidence arround me, so she shouldn't be afraid of talking with me. I think she stopped talking because she was afraid of what other people would think about our relatoship... I hate school :(
I ask you to help me uderstanding why she did stop talking to me (a week ago) and to know what can I do or if I must wait for her to understand the situation. I hope you can help me, thanks for your attention. I really miss this girl...
