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
Imagine realizing 10 years from now that your wife wouldn't have married you if you were shorter.
yeah i guess you are right. its just that i feel my height is not normal.. like im not 5'5-5'7 which considered short,but normal. i feel like my height is extreme short and its like a legitimate reason for not wanting to date me and not because someone is shallow.
Would recommend to anyone in any situation to at least try working with a therapist about body issues before elective surgery. For that matter, having a therapist help them with the psychological consequences of choosing surgery.
thank you i will think about it 🙏
