Not worth it. I have been trying over 1.5 years and have gotten nowhere. I wish that I had not wasted my time.
The people telling you to date down or not aim so high are also wrong, in a way. Those women absolutely know that you're dating down. If you're in shape, intelligent, mentally and emotionally stable and she's overweight, less well educated then, no matter how kind, sweet, affectionate etc. you are to her, she's going to know that you're dating down and therefore it won't last with her. On the other hand, the women who are more similar to you will reject you every single time because of your hair loss. I don't blame any of these women for behaving in these ways, but those are the facts of the matter.
Don't waste your time like I did.
