im 157cm (5′2) 26yo male i have been in a realationship for 3years and i did had success somewhat with girls. tho sometime I feel like i need to work very hard, harder than my tall friends. if im not on my top shape and lean i feel like im not enough, and given less chances with girls. im pretty muscular, and have an ok face, i also pretty nice to talk to and tbh i never had a first date which the girl didnt want to go to a second date with me. but the height a lot of times made some girls not even consider me, and tbh 157 cm is like shorter than 99% of guys. im thinking about doing it to get to 5′6 tho i also dont wanna be the guy who is known for doing limb lengthning surgery cause its like an insecure thing. im pretty lost tbh. need some outsiders perspective ty

That kind of surgery can leave you disfigured like you were in a car accident and will likely lead to bone issues later in life.

As a tall man, I can tell you that personality is way more important. Girls who actually care about your height are not worth your time.

I don't disagree at all but this sounds like "As a lottery winner, I can tell you that money doesn't matter much"

you are right about that. im also thinking that if I will get this surgery and i will get some girl. when i go to sleep at night with her i will probably will think " hmmm, was she still dating me if i was 157 cm as before" and that will f with my head
