I have been in several realtinships since my alopecia took all my hair. I was always worried that no one would love me because of how I looked. Many of the relationships I was in left me feeling less than confident. No man ever really made me feel beautiful. For the longest time I thought that my alopecia would stop me from finding true love, a man I could stay with and who would make me feel beautiful when he looked at me. My mother was in the hospital and her nurse has alopecia. I never met this woman but she told my mother that I should hand in there. She had found a man that she loved with all her heart and that made her feel beautiful. This nurse said that eventually if I gave it time I would meet someone that I loved like she loved her husband. Over this past summer I met a man who is now the healthiest relationship I've ever had. For the first time in my life I feel beautiful when a man looks at me. I thought this would never happen for me. I wake up with a smile on my face because I know he will he there. When he looks at me I can't keep a smile off my face, and thinking about him now makes me heart swell. Because of this wonderful man I am finally realizing that even without my hair I am beautiful. It is scary sometimes but I know if I am ever sad all I have to do is look at him and I can see the love in his eyes. One day I hope everyone can find someone who makes them feel the way my boyfriend makes me feel. It may be hard, and there will be times that it seems like that special person will never come, but it's just a matter of time. Everyone with alopecia deserves to feel beautiful and to find happiness. And the great thing about finding love is that it will happen when you don't expect it.

I'm so glad you found each other and you found a man who makes you feel beautiful! That is wonderful. I wish that for all the women with alopecia. I try to be patient and have faith it will happen for me one day.

I am soooo very happy for you...seems like love is in the air these days! It takes a special man to bring about those feelings in someone and it looks llike you found one! I would love to hear how he swept you off your feet. I too, like many of others, am searching. I wish the best of luck to us all...

I appreciate all the good wishes. I was hoping to inspire others to not give up. I know that I had trouble believing that I could find love and if I thought that there would be at least one other person out there with the same though. I just want everyone to know that they can be happy. It takes time but it will come. I wish I had someone who made me believe it was possible at my hardest times.
