Sky Hunter...Don't stress out about finding a guy...when it happens you know. I am also darker skinned...tan like crazy during the summer, unlike my husband. I've also had weight issues all my life and a very crappy self image. It doesn't help when all you hear from your parents, and aunts and uncles is that you are FAT. They seem not to accept you unless you are thin. My parents were terrified that my husband and his family would never say yes to the alliance. The thing is that before my husband and I knew what each other looked like we connected over the phone. He has said that he knew I was the one from the second phone call!! When his parents and he came to see me the first time...we were told to go out on a quasi date...we did...what my husband said floored me...he said that he came to Edmonton, Alberta from Toronto, Ontario with the full intention of saying yes to marriage. He just wanted to do it in person because he found that that was the most respectful thing to do. My parents from that day on continously said that he was better looking than me and if I did not want my marriage to endin divorce I better lose weight. It's all crap...myhusband and I love each other more and more everyday....and he is more supportive of me now since we found out that we were going to have problems conceiving. I am the one looking at worst case cenarios...he is the one looking at the positives. My cousins always told me that I would find my soul mate when I no longer stressed about getting married and stopped looking...they were right. My cousins also said that whn you find that person...looks are actually overlooked...you just know in your heart that he is the one, I thought this was a load of crap, but you know what...they were right. When it happens you will know...
It is all stressful...And I get bouts of depression...I just thank god that I got such an awesome husband!! Everything will work out.
Avantika...unfortunately I have not experienced hair loss, my husband however suffers from alopecia (his immune system is so strong that it thinks his hair is a virus...so he has hair loss...plus side is that he never gets sick!) what has worked are injections that a dermatologist administers...alll his hair has grown back...maybe you should look into that.
Hope all this helps ladies...
