Hello Fellas!!

I've been thinking about this topic for quite awhile.I've been growing out my beard for a good while. I have kept a stubble look for a good year or so and now have ventured into THE GROWTH OF THE BEARD.

As a single guy living in a college town, looking for a woman. I've found that the respones I'm getting from women around me isn't all that great now with some growth on my face vs. when I kept it short and GQ. Granted I still dress nice and I have a pretty good haircut, so at times it throws people off.


Couple that with the fact that I've also gotten comments from female family members and friends saying things like: "For someone that wants a girlfriend your never gonna get one with all that on your face!" or "Girls DO NOT like that" or even (this one from a girl at a bar a month ago) "Hey you!, You wanna get laid? SHAVE THAT!"

What are your guys throughs on the matter? I can add more to this, but let's geet a conversation going on the issue

 
The question is what do you want?  If you think that having a beard will mean that you cannot ever have a girlfriend or get laid well that's what you're going to have to deal with. Lots of women really like beards.  Maybe you need to fine one of those.
