I was hooking up with a guy and his toupee came off. Is there any salvaging this?
I m (27) was taking to this guy m(29) on an app for a few weeks, we met up for a drink, he came back to mine, all was going well.
We were hooking up and at one stage I got really into it and pulled on the back of (what I thought was) his real hair and the top of his hairline came unstuck.
He ran to my bathroom and locked himself in. I tried to talk him into coming out but eventually he just asked me to drop his clothes by the door so he could leave.
This was Saturday and he hasn’t responded since I text to ask if he was OK the morning after.
Is there anything I can say that would lessen his embarrassment? I feel like it was my mess up that lead to this and I don’t want to add to any insecurities, but I don’t know how to do that. Any advice would be appreciated.
To say I’m horrified is an understatement
Netizens’ comments
- He probably panicked. I wouldn’t put too much blame on the fellow.
- You handled it perfectly. You didnt make fun of him or anything. You asked him to talk to you about it and he fled like a child. Clearly it didnt seem like a big deal to you, so he has no reason to be embarrassed. Maybe losing his hair was a hit to his masculinity, but just let him know you liked him, the man, the person.
- Shave your own head to show support
- If you like him message him and ask him out again,tell him you like him and find him very attractive,tell him everyone has things they might not like about themselves but you like him as he is,asking him out again should be a compliment enough
