Hi,
My DP is 28. He has been thinning for years and he knows this. He eventually needs to shave it off this year or next year at the maximum.
I am really supportive about this. I actually think he wouldn't look that bad as he has nice features ect.
I always say I think it will look fine and I actually have quite a few celebrity crushes on the bald or shaven headed man
But he is in total depression and denial. He doesn't think he is depressed but he is taking less and less interest in what he wears, what he eats and is constantly shovelling unhealthy food. He has gained weight because of this.
I have tried to promote his self esteem by trying to cook healthy meals when I was doing weight watchers, I ask him if he wants to go gym, I try and take him clothes shopping but he's just had a meltdown.
He says he isn't depressed, but won't buy any clothes because he doesn't like his shape, and has no motivation to go to the gym but then says he's fine with the way he is?
What else can I do as it's coming between us. I want him to want to make an effort but what else can I do?
He has said that I have to get used to the way he is because he isn't changing and it's only going to get worse.
