Needing new friends and hope for my future

So as you most can already tell last year was not very good for me. I feel like I've lost everything but to be honest I just figured out what was good for me and what wasn't. I'm going through a divorce my husband was very abusive and always told me being bald was my fault and I started to believe him. I started putting my self down and became very depressed because his last words to me were "you are bald and ugly and no one will ever want you in there life" Why was I so stupid to believe him you ask but the truth is I don't know. So I'm starting off this year needing new friends and hope for my future. I just became a photographer and I'm very happy about this because this has been my life long dream. So if anyone has advice for me as to how I can move in the right direction to let my heart heal from this I would love to know how.. I wanna feel good about myself again...........

Photography school! Instant networking and friends! Photography = truth, so you actually may also become a model, as you can wear ANYTHING now!

Check out local art galleries to see if there are any photography clubs or shows you can enter. Art museums also have shows and lectures. You can go to show openings and meet a lot of people! Cheese! Munchies! Music!

Hi cyndle. I too am in the process of going through divorce from my drug addict abusive husband. I don't think you lost everything. You are starting your new life with full of positivity in the future! You should feel good about your self just for the fact that you were strong and brave enough to leave such a jerk! I'm now single mother of 2 and bald, living in canada where I have no family around, but I am still happy and excited about my futures without him. I wish you the best of 2012 and good luck with your photographer career!!

I wouldn't want anyone in my life who couldn't accept my baldness. My late husband never had a problem with it and we were married for 42 years. My fiancee certainly doesn't have a problem with it either--I guess I have been double blessed. You will be truly blessed when you meet that certain someone who accepts you for the beautiful person that you are!
