Ever See Other Men Pass You Up On The Balding Scale?

As a diffused balder, I'm constantly evaluating others for thinning. There's a couple of guys at work who, while I was thinning, had no noticeable hair loss.
Well now they are not only losing their hair, they are worse off than me. My neighbor is 20 years younger and he's noticeably thinning with the temples and now the crown is going. He'll by-pass me in a few years...

Also my younger brother has a slick bald spot on his crown now...

Anyone else sit by and watch other pass you up on the balding scale?

Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuust wondering....

The last year has been better for some reason. Not like OMG! but more little hairs on crown that can make concealers work. I started 1 full pill of finasteride again a day 4 months ago, increased BIOTIN, always use SAW PAL, and added Derma Rolling. Been on finasteride almost two years. minoxidil three times a week, which I could do that more, but just haven't.

Being a nw3 becomes easier as you progress through your 30s because most men around you are in the same boat.

Also women are a little more forgiving at the signs of ageing as you grow old.

Premature balding (teens and 20s) is a lot harder to handle because you feel like you're one of the few afflicted with those bad genetics.

Plus, if the majority of your mates are balding then none of them are going to take the piss out of you.
