My current height angers me severely everyday to the point I lose sleep over it, struggle to eat and have lost weight due to it, especially because I used to always think I was even taller than I actually was but even with that original height I thought I was, I was unhappy with it.
Even if my dating life was good with my current height I’d still want the surgery no matter what. I don’t think having a girlfriend would make much more secure about my height. It’s like body dysmorphia which I’ve also have to an extent. There’s been many times where I’ve been considering steroids even though I already have a 1% physique. I’ll always have this height dysmorphia though. I just don’t feel like the complete man I want to be with my height. For some people being the complete man may be owning their dream car or own a Rolex or a trophied property but for me in this case it’s also my height.
But yeah with my current height dating is really hard, it might be the area I am from (I’m from London) and also my age which is 22 but like seriously everytime I’m on a dating app (hinge bumble tinder and even the minor ones lol), I’ll see girls of all heights, even 5’1 or lower openly state they don’t want a man under 6 foot. I’ve tried in real life too, I just get told I’m cute but you’re not that tall.
My height angers me so much I’m CONSTANTLY checking my height multiple times a day everyday to see what height I actually am. Seems to be my average height over the day is 179-179.5cm, I usually start off at 180 or 181 even on a good day then can drop down to as low as 178 but that’s because I go heavy at the gym.
It’s also frustrating that I’m in a family where everyone else is really tall, in fact extremely tall considering I’m Indian. the average male cousin is like 6’4 and it’s just a horrible feeling for me getting looked down all the time.
Thanks for the reply
22M from UK. I want to get limb lengthening. Thoughts?

I've seen men at 165cm barely have issues, yet you can't with 15cm more?
You seem to have a 6ft fixation, which means it's mental. And believe you can look like a tall Shrek and land some girl to f@ck. 👁️ 👄 👁️
I'm curious, would a 6'0 girl like you date a 5'10/178cm guy? I personally like tall girls 😁😁
178 having trouble? Man... have you seen the new calvin klein video? That guy is not tall. Heard he is 5 foot 7. Sometimes it's the sex appeal, the personality perhaps too. Both my uncles have wives who are taller than them, probably by two inches or so. With kids too. From Singapore.

My husband is 5'9 lol
I think girls that are very very fixated on your height will make your life hellish even if you meet those requirements...so it'll be your money next, your hairline next, your penis size next...until you become crazy and insecure about anything you love about yourself.
If a man didn't befriend you because of your height, you wouldn't feel lesser.
So why would a woman make you feel that way? Don't make it personal.
Your "dating pool" doesn't matter, in the end you'll marry just one.
This word makes me cringe because everyone sees each other as recreational sacks of meat only.
To add on I think some girls do that to just as a placeholder reason to reject you. Oh, you're too *something*. if she likes you, she will like you and discount whatever physical discrepancies u may have.
Much of a man’s value is derived from his behavior, personality, attitude, and ability to access scarce resources.
His attractiveness (to women) stems from a combination of skill, confidence, status, experience, and appearance. Notice how I listed appearance as an important trait, but listed it towards the end.
Appearance is not the end all be all for attracting women. I know very many men who are "handsome" and "tall" and "good-looking" who struggle to meet and attract women because they lack the other traits I mentioned. They may be handsome, but they are not "attractive." There is a big difference between those two words when it comes to a man. A woman's attractiveness is often mainly based on her physical beauty, whereas a man's attractiveness is gathered from the traits I listed above (where his appearance is only one factor and often not even the most important one).
Again, there is a difference between being "handsome" and being "attractive" as a man.
Going down deeper, height is also just one factor in terms of a man's appearance. Different people (particularly women) also view your height with varying degrees of importance when they are determining if they find you good-looking or not.
If a man is 160cm nothing else matters.

In fact, last year I dated 2 very pretty girls, one of them was 5'8 and I didn't get any comments related to my height. Heh, people's "standards" are becoming more demanding and absurd, which means that in the end, between opposite sexes they just see each other as a bag of meat. I plan to have surgery this year, only one person knows and has supported me unconditionally.
Pd: your husband must be a very lucky man

My cousin about that height just got married. My uncles too, are shorter than 160cm. My high school friend also has that height is also married and has kids.
I'm 5 foot 4 gay male, and I did get dates. Tall men too. I rejected one before whom i find a little too tall for me, among other attributes lol. So no, I disagree.

I once had a partner who had those qualities that you mentioned, he was not a man of height but a man of high value. There was a point in which I mentioned LL and it is not surprising that men resort to that since many of them work on one or two parts of their personality and social skills, height gives the "great advantage" of the first impression and that the first contact with a girl or boy is visual, but it does not define everything. Btw as you, Im also aiming for 6’2 which is my personal favorite height
