I don't want him to see that it hurts my feelings, so what can I do to make this less obvious. How can I make it clear that his words do not affect me? Thank youx Reply to this Question

Anyways, you can always tell him that funny he mentions you weight, for you have noticed but didn't want to say anything, but it looks like your hair is receding: Rogain?
That should place him in front of the mirror for a while.

 Just ignore it, as its sibling rivarly and reacting makes it worse.

 Just ignore him... Don't react at all and he'll be back at uni before you you know it! Any other reaction will just give him the satisfaction of knowing he's gotten to you. Good luck!

 Just say "whatever at least i'm not going bald" and examine his head slightly!
That will make him moan and leave you alone for a while.
