I'm not a bad looking guy - I'm pretty dang good looking, actually - even with the head shave.
The issue is, about two years ago, they just... STOPPED being into me. It was as if a memo went out to all females, saying "He is not to be considered for dating anymore."
Here's what I think it is: I don't fit the magazine-and-TV-approved stereotype for how "men are supposed to look." I'm short and skinny (5'6" and 120 pounds) which automatically disqualifies me for most, but the addition of the bald head really seemed to put the last nail in the coffin.
I have an awesome personality, very good at conversation, I'm healthy, active, hard working, talented, and intelligent. What's the deal, yo? They don't approach me, and I gave up approaching them after many failed attempts in LA led me to throwing in the towel.
