Confidence Issues
Billy:
I'm right there with the other guys, hit the gym and focus on enhancing your style and overall look. A strong stance, confident step and holding your chin high will help too... I practice mine regularly to make sure I maintain a confident, powerful presentation.
Also don't forget your ego - there is NO shame in having a healthy ego! It helps us respect ourselves, demand respect from others and be exactly the men we want to be. Likewise it prevents us from giving a flip what anyone else thinks which is why so many women seek to diminish/supress it (what these girls were trying to do). Kill a man's ego, he's your slave.
Once I went sly, the true value and meaning of ego came into focus. It wasn't weakend with hairloss, it was supercharged with the freedom to re-invent myself as a man who demands respect. If you accept that pride, self-respect, strength, drive and masculinity are not outdated traits, you won't have any more problems.

as usual, some great inspiring words of wisdom from my brothers, don't let shallow immature "children" cause you worry, as I have said in another post, are they the sort of girls you would want as a partner? to be understanding when you need emotional support?does what they say truly matter? you've probably stepped in deeper puddles than those girls, ignore hem, they matter not, in fact, I always feel sorry for those types, they seem to live on facebook and post updates of what they had for lunch, or the new handbag they bought...they will be saying the same about anyone that looks different, they don't have the personality to give their own opinion, because they would be perceived different by their sheep like peers...you rock the sly look

LOL. Best post on this thread!!!
I'm sorry those girls said that stuff to you. Sheesh, they make all us women look dumb. :-( And I'm also glad the other guys took them off your hands because obviously they are shallow girls and you don't need that - let those other guys make that mistake!
Then go out and find some REAL friends! :-) if those guys heard all that and they didn't either stick up for you or encourage you AND they still thot those girls were cool after they teased you, then those guys are equally shallow and it is probably best to MOVE ON.

I like this post a lot. I stopped shaving for a bit back in January. 3/4 laziness, 1/4 being really cold. Before long I didn't feel like myself anymore and HAD to go back to being sly.
I never would have believed you if you had told me this last year, but I actually am MORE confident sly than with hair now. I guess I needed that one last slip-up, that kick in the butt when seeing myself in the mirror as a--yuck--BALDING guy. Completely sly > balding, in any style of dress, any day.
A little muscle goes a long way, too... it's the best fashion "accessory" there is.

Dude are you sure they were mean? Perhaps... maybe they were teasing you to give you attention?
