a friend is a good looking dude but noticed his hairline started receding a few years ago. he’s only 29. he got beautiful locks but noticed that he started wearing a baseball cap more often in the last 1-2 years.

I don’t know how he feels about it and don’t want to ask if he’s feeling self conscious. do all young men with receding hairline feel conscious about it? is it better to pretend like I don’t notice it. how do you make them feel better about it? maybe he doesn’t care?

I sent this guy I met once a message on Instagram yesterday morning so technically it has only been a bit over 24 hours…but I have a feeling this message will never get read?

Thank you to all who responded that I should shoot my shot and message the guy I met at a conference. I'm 31 he's 30. we didn't exchange numbers/social media but I found his Instagram.

what bothers me is that I was always told that if a guy is into me he WOULD.

so does the fact that I'm the one reaching out likely mean he's probably not as interested? He's pretty attractive and he might have a lot of options (and I'm just average looking so he might have just forgotten about me already).

I always find that relationships work better where the dude is the one that's really into me first. I know I'm overthinking but it's hard not to when you are crushing

thank you all again!!

I have a crush on this very attractive guy I met ONCE in a professional setting. we live in the same city but because we are not actually in the same industry our paths would never come across again.

im just an average looking gal…would it be weird if I make an insta account to message him? I’d probabablg just tell him that i think he’s cute/if he’s single etc we don’t have any mutual friends so I wouldn’t know how else to reach out to him. would I be his ”ICK”/make him feel uncomfortable? I get that people would be more forgiving if I was an attractive girl lol but I’m not.

thanks!!

Edit: would it be creepy to message him on insta? I just don’t know any other way to reach him. We are both in our early 30s

I’ve been suffering from Dysautonomia like symptoms for years since covid. I was dismissed as having just anxiety until last year. earlier this year I went to a Dysautonomia center to see a neurologist and the wait is almost a year. the earliest I can be seen by a long covid/neurologist doc is around December of this year …. I was also told that covid complications are hard to diagnose…so it’s not even clear if I’ll have a “cure” if I finally see a neurologist at this center.

if you are not seeing a doctor now, what have you been doing to make things better???

thank you

edit: also do you think the symptoms get better over time?? I dont know if mine has gotten better or if I’m just managing the better…:(….like everyone else, i just want my life back. I rarely go out now. And especially with the heat intolerance, the summer is the worst for me.
