Do your friends stare at your hair?

[2bald]

I started noticibly losing my hair about a year ago at age 22.
Most of my friends reacted normally, surprised and upset at
first but they seemed to have gotten used to it.
After all, they are not the ones losing their hair (yet).
But one of my friends is not reacting appropriatly, he has been
staring at my harline constantly for a year, every time we see
each other. I'ts like he is more obsessed than I am with my
problem. I almost want to avoid the guy now because he keeps
on staring at my hair while he touches his own hair at the exact places where I am balding.
Very, very annoying and creepy. I am getting tired of catching
his stare, any suggestions?

Yeah, ask him what the f*** he is looking at? I have found that to be quite successful. Tell him he is looking at what to expect a couple yrs. down the line.

I think you should get up really close to their head, as if you were examining THEIR hairline up close. Make it really obvious. When they ask what you are doing, just say "I really admire people with full hairlines, how do you manage to keep your testosterone so low? What is the secret?... then again, I don't think the nice hairline is worth the small dick that comes with it?"

When he looks at your hairline and touches his just be like, "Hey your hairline kinda looks like mine did when i started losing my hair"

I have had alot of people having conversations with me peek up at my hair during the conversation. I think they are not sure if im balding and keep peeking to get a closer look.

Clearly this guy is just lacking some intuition, so he doesnt see how his behavior is obvious and might affect you. I reccomend doing basically what Nomad said, though perhaps a little lighter. Point his behavoir out to him and it should be enough to give him some insight. And remember, its not his fault he's stupid.

dude, if he's your friend, just ask the guy!

say "hey man, you seemed to have noticed my receding hairline, what do you think about it, how does it look, is it getting worse" etc.

you need to let him know what he's doing.

Tell him it happened from being a POW back in 'Nam. Some Laotian witch doctor poured sh*t on your head which made your hair fall out. Then tell him that, on the bright side, your dick grew to horse-like proportions and you come in buckets.
