Hi Everyone, I had the most embarrassing thing happen this morning! My worst nightmare came true! I’ve been seeing this guy for about 2 years now. We don’t get to see each other every often due to the distance we live from each other. I’ve told him on and off that I’ve been having issues with my hair falling out but he didn’t know I bought an integrated wig a few months ago to cover three bald spots I have on top of my head. Well, we were making love this morning and my hair piece came loose and went astray! Apparently, I hadn’t attached it very well as he showed up early when I was putting it on. I tried to straighten it quickly but I could see him looking at me strangely and he finally asked if I got a hair piece. My embarrassment was so bad and my face turned so so red. My humiliation is so complete. I just wanted to cry so bad! He told me to forget it happened that he loved my hair with or without the wig. He said that he cared more about what was inside me than if I wore a wig… At that point, I couldn’t stop the tears.. He held me and let me cry! I know he meant what he said but I’m still so afraid that won’t see him again! God I don’t want to lose him! Every time I think of what happened, my face just turns every shade of red! I’m so depressed and angry that this has happened to me. Life is so unfair! Every time I think I’m getting better at accepting this in my life, something happens! Well, I guess we will see if he calls again! Truly worried! Di

I am sorry this happened to you - if he calls he is worth having around - if he does not - he never was. I also struggle with getting mad and depressed and I will NEVER accept that this hair loss thing is NORMAL. I do think we make the best of whatever life dishes out but that does not mean that I have to accept it and not demand a cure be sought after.

Again sorry this happened to you - hoping the best for you.

I too am so sorry this happened. He might not even thought it was a big deal. Sounds like you have known him awhile now so he was making love to you and not your hair. I wish you luck!

If a guy needs YOUR hair to feel like a man or have "arm candy" in front of peers, then he can go buy his own wig to walk with and sleep with!

Amen, TG!

i can relate to this, i am only 16 years old and i have absolutely no hair on my body or head. i wear wigs every day of my life, its the only thing that makes me get out of the house!
i was swimming once in the local pool and dived in and it came off, i then came up from the water with everyone staring at me. its the worse feeling :(

LillyBell - As always , right on the mark with this one.
TallGirl - Ditto
Sins - lookey here , although I can understand your sizable misfortunes in the past .... I also agree with you. ( But plz ... just know that not all fellas have these types of short comings.)

Great responses here ...allow me this :

Fancy - Try to see this occurance as a postitive one . The cat is out of the bag , your worst nightmare as you call it has come to the surface. And guess what ??

He seems to love you no matter whats going on up there.
Give him a big kiss and tell him everyday how happy you are to have him in your life:)

This is why I finally felt better when making the choice to go without. I never wanted to feel such shame, discomfort and heartache. What they see is what they get and no doubt what they want. I have no problem being bald, because I know that now after being married to a man who revolted by my baldness ... I will never stoop that low as to accept someone who's heart wasn't into "ME" it's such a powerful load off my shoulders, one I never has do endure ever again. Keep a check on his attitude, and what he says. If he is ashamed of your for any reason...I would address it.

Have a little faith. Most guys this days don't really care for hair... which I hope he falls in this category Even a friend of mine (guy) doesn't understand why I worry too much about my wig...If your man leaves then he is the fool.

Hi Everyone, Thank you for your great responses and best wishes. It’s all great advice. I will do my best not to worry and take that advice. He’s always told me that he’ll never let me go and that he loves me. I’m trying my best to truly know that he still means it. Time will tell. Not sure when I’ll see him again (usually between 2 weeks and 2 months depending on our schedules). My schedule is an open book for him right now………. Wow that sounds desperate! Guess I am at this point. Just to know the truth. How I hate to feel this way! Since I got this wig I’ve felt so much more confident and more like myself and I can’t believe I’m back to feeling this way again. I’m praying every day and night that he comes back. If he doesn’t, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to wear it with another partner with confidence again. How can you possibly enjoy yourself with someone when you’re constantly worrying your wig will come off or come loose again??? Thanks again! Hugs Di
