I have been balding for a number of years now. Strange thing is, I have never really gotten any comments about it from almost anyone I am close with. My best friend commented once on how I had lost more hair, but he made it in sort of passing, as if it wasnt anything he put much attention to. Mostly people Im not close to seem to have given looks, others I know have never once so much as made a point of it, not even the occasional stare at my hair.

Now it makes me feel weird. Are they afraid to mention anything? Or is the close relationship I share with them make sort of not really pay attention to it? I know people can tell Ive been balding to a large extant now, it really cannot be hidden anymore... but still, it seems I am by far the most conscious person in the world about it...

I dunno whether to be happy or somewhat annoyed my friends dont mention it. In fact, most stares I get are from other men who are going through the same thing.

Other people couldnt care less if your balding, its only you that it really matters to. I learnt that too late.

It really depends on how old you are and how fast you're losing it. If you're 35 or older and slowly losing hair over many years then nobody is going to say anything because that's accepted as normal.
