Fellow baldies,
I'm between the devil and the deep blue sea (nice idiom, by the way).
As somebody who swears by the bald lifestyle, and as somebody who's a moderator
for a bald related forum, I should be a beacon of light for other bald people and for those
who are still undecided on whether or not to go bald.
But I met a woman....
Well, I met a woman, and I really love her, and that's nice and great and all. But...
...she prefers me with hair! And the last time we were together (we live several thousand miles
apart) I did something unspeakable: I let my hair grow back...for her.
Oh, I know, I know, it's a stigma and a great shame for a bald guy (and a moderator for a bald forum, let's not forget about that).
And it's hard on me. And as I was lying there in bed during those long lonely nights, and as my hand moved up to my head and found no smooth and shiny surfaces, I was overcome by a deep sorrow...and I picked up my harmonica and played the Bald Man Blues.
And now I'm in a terrible dilemma: do I abjure the bald lifestyle, or do I stand firm, stand by my principles?
Ah, women have us wrapped around their fingers. They say it's a men's world, but deep down, us men know better - it's a women's world. No man could ever say no to a woman, not if he really loved her.
And I do love her.
Anyway, I'm back in Greece now, and I did shave again (I just hope she doesn't find out
). And it feels great being bald again.
But the question remains: do I forsake my baldness for the sake of love?
What would you do? (Not that I would listen to you, I'd make my own decision
)
Would you give up the bald lifestyle for the love of a woman? And I'm not saying she's going to
break up with me if I stay bald. It's just that she likes me much more with hair. And I want to make her
happy, of course. So, it's a great dilemma.
There's much talk here in this forum about the advantages of being bald, about how women find bald men sexy. But what happens if you find yourself in a situation such as mine, where being bald becomes a disadvantage rather than an advantage, when it becomes a liability?
I'm looking forward to your comments. And please be meek. After all, there are extenuating circumstances - love made me do it.
So, what's your verdict?
