Im 22 years old and i have never been in a relationship due to my alopecia. Ive dated quite a few guys but always been to scared to tell them i have alopecia and am completley bald. I think this is due to fear of being rejected and ive lost a few guys that i have really liked due to it. I am now seeing this guy who i relly like and who really likes me. Im now in the situation when i know i should tell him but feel choked when i want to tell him. Im now really scared im going to lose another guy that i really like.

Hi Bonita, I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us.
Hello and welcome, Bonita!
I'm sorry you're having trouble with dating. I covered that area very thoroughly in my book, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" You can find out more about it on my page.
Remember, if a guy backs away because of your lack of hair he's not right for you. It really separates the men from the boys. But not all men are shallow and worried about appearances. You should tell him. A lot of men find it endearing and even sexy.
